I don’t know, It is just that my most played games required mashing on B, I’ve played mostly shoot em ups and beat’em ups and Mortal Kombat on Genesis. Between Me, cousin, his friends and my friends, the Genesis probably saw 30 hours of gaming a week.
My grip is probably stronger than average, I’m the kind of guy that people ask to open jars. I’d used go through a Genesis B button like once a year. This was before I figured out that I could swap out the contact pads. On most systems I would go through my first controller in at least 2 years average, mostly contact pad wear. I’ve killed at least 1 controller for every major system. Not so much now, I don’t game as much since I’ve graduated college.
Edit: Now that I think about it, I kill a lot of things. I this past year I killed 2 keyboards before deciding to buy a Unicomp keyboard because certain keys keep getting stuck like shift, ctrl, wasd space. I guess I was born with the heavy handed perk.
you, sir, are one of the funniest ppl i’ve read.

Really my god!, I always opened my genesis controllers and cleaned them, same with snes pads
That is why I love my PS2 Sega Saturn Pad.
Yes you read it right, a Sega Saturn pad for the PS2. I am too lazy to make a photo right now so here is some links Sega Saturn PS2 Game Controller | Gear Live Sega Saturn Joypad for PlayStation2 : iPlayPlayStation.com
Oh yeah, I have the Purple one, its supposed to be a Limited Dark Stalkers edition of the PS2 Saturn Pad.
They were going for $22??
Daaaaang.
I know, I paid $35 in a local game import shop 2 years ago.

The cheapest I’ve seen one go for was 60. They usually sell in the 100 range. Thank crimbus for the Keio converters.

The only way I know how to damage older Sega controllers was using them like a flail/mace.
d3v knows from experience he uses them as nun-chucks.
