@squidc00kie: I think you're confusing the Duke with the 360 pad, which was an abomination.

It's so obvious that the build quality on the DUKE vs. the S & 360 controller is far superior

This was actually going to be the Gamecube's controller back when it was called the Nintendo Dolphin.

to be honest, it's doesn't look bad

@egg: For a lot of games especially during the SNES days, pressing Y & A, and X & B simultaneously did special commands.

for Soul Calibur for the Dreamcast, it was necessary

@egg: I still think the analog sticks on the DUKE are far superior to the S Controller because it wasn't just a plastic spring, making it harder to slip.

I don't see how, the only fault people say is that it's big (which I like)

They disregard the build quality completely. Analogs sticks were far superior to the 360 in every way, & same with the duke's circle D-Pad.
