007 Goldeneye N64 did have (surprisingly modern) dual stick control layouts ... but it required 2 controllers. Of course it was ruined by how shitty the stock N64 controller was, never-mind having to hold one in each hand.

Here's a video of someone playing with the "2.2 Galore" control style

The only benefit to the N64 controller was that because it only had one stick, you could use 3 fingers of your hand on the stick rather than a thumb only. Way better control over the cursor than just a thumb.
