Message: <blockquote data-quote="Megahurtz" data-source="post: 125499" data-attributes="member: 3958">I would suggest not using the triggers, with maybe the exception of tables that have two-stage flippers.  The triggers are always going to feel mushy and need to pass the deadzone before they register a button press.  My advice would be to use the bumpers, but you find those mushy too.  If you do, I'm not sure what controller to recommend for you.  The Dual Shocks all have less responsive L1/R1 buttons than the 360 bumpers.  Maybe try some 3rd party pc controllers?  I don't have any experience to suggest one though.How are you holding the controller that you find it hard to reach the analog stick to nudge?  I've been playing with my index fingers on the bumpers and the rest of my fingers cradling the bottom of the controller.  I just reach my left thumb up to the stick for nudging, which I can comfortably do while still keeping my index fingers on the bumpers.You could try a Hotrod SE or an X-Arcade stick.  You would get authentic arcade buttons on the side to use as flippers.  Then I set it up to use the right stick for digital nudging and one of the 2P buttons for the plunger.  You'll lose analog nudging and plunger control though.  It does feel great playing holding a controller the same way you would hold a real table though <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
