There was a controller layout for Goldeneye and Perfect Dark where you used two N64 controllers, so you had two analog sticks and two Z buttons. It was extremely awkward to use A or B to cycle through weapons or open doors because of the button placement, but Goldeneye was actually the first two-thumbstick FPS game I played.

I wish I had known back in 1997!

Fun fact, you could use the second controller to aim and shoot (without a reticle) during cutscenes! Really funny and awkward when you can kill major characters (including Bond) during a cutscene and of course the game proceeds like it never happened. :p

(Maybe only during the end-mission cutscenes. I can't remember 100%)
