D-pads

This D-pad is getting old. Maybe add a new one? It's a circle pad! Also be able to switch from this old one to the circle pad

    A circle pad control option might be nice, but it should definitely be an option. It can be very nice to be 100% positive that you're moving in a straight line (mainly for building, I admit), which would be impossible with a circle pad. I've also found it easy to end up moving a direction I didn't intend to go because my thumb got misaligned with the circle pad in other games.

    The other thing I've discovered recently is that you can treat the D-Pad control much like a circle pad in the way you use it. I've been pressing the buttons individually, but you can also not lift your thumb and move it to the different buttons. It's not identical to if it was a circle pad because you are still limited to the movement positions of the buttons available, but it's still almost there.

    Great idea, but it should be a square pad. Circles in minecraft would break the very fabrication of the universe.
