Granted not having a joystiq made it awkward for 3D games, which the Saturn didn't really excell in aside from a few titles, Nights did come with a redesigned controller with an analog stick if I recall.

That's funny, because my favorite genesis controller was the six button one that had the two buttons mapped to the shoulder. I'm pretty sure it wasn't official because I also seem to remember it having rapid fire but I don't remember who made it.
Not the exact one but really similar.
I think our opinions on controllers differ b/c the style of games we play differs. You seem to prefer rpgs and adventure type games based on what I've read, but I've always preferred FPS, fighting games and sports games so my decision on controllers largly depends on how accurately and quickly it allows me to manipulate my on screen avatar.
While searching for a picture of the genesis controller I did come across an old 1up article that's pretty interesting.
