{{Stub}} {{HardwareInfobox |image = DualShock3.jpg |type = Controller |platforms = PlayStation 3 |manufacturer = Sony Corporation |input = PlayStation Button <br> 2 [[Analog joystick]]s <br> [[Directional pad]] <br> Start Button <br> Select Button <br> X Button <br> Circle Button <br> Square Button <br> Triangle Button <br> R1 Button <br> R2 Trigger <br> R3 Button <br> L1 Button <br> L2 Trigger <br> L3 Button }} The '''''DualShock 3 Controller''''' is the primary controller for the later editions of the [[PlayStation 3]], namely the [[PlayStation 3 Slim]] and the [[PlayStation 3 Super Slim]], while still being compatible with the original releases of the platform. ==Overview== At first sight the DualShock 3 looks once again like its predecessors except for the buttons. [[Sony Computer Entertainment|Sony]] felt that the DualShock was becoming an outdated controller so they decided to add a new PlayStation button for going back to the home menu system, and to turn the L1 and R1 shoulder buttons into triggers. The DualShock 3 is also now a wireless controller. One unusual fact is that the DualShock 3 wasn't released at the same time at the [[PlayStation 3]], but was instead released in May 2008; the PlayStation 3 was originally released with the [[Sixaxis Controller]]. The [[PlayStation 3 Slim]] and the [[PlayStation 3 Super Slim]] shipped with DualShock 3 controllers as standard.
