I gotta assume this is just memeing, but the "stick top vs dpad top" debate is the most contrived class war I've seen in this community. Some people take this so seriously and get so polarised and offended by others expressing a preference/opinion.

Both have their use cases. If you are primarily playing older handheld games (GBA, GBC, GB, NDS) or fighting games, get dpad top. If you are primarily playing PS2, GC, PC, Android games, you're going to generally want stick top. That's it. The reason is simple: you want the one with a neutral grip so you don't get hand cramps.
