I have a Saturn pad running on my 360. Adapters cost me around 200 dollars but its well worth it...

Just knowing you pulled something off like getting a Saturn pad up and running on a 360 makes you the greatest gamer here. That's coming from my own mouth and fingertips, which are like the mouth of God and the fingertips of E.T. Be proud.

 

So your fingers inspired a video game that was to blame for the video game crash of the 80's. Fascinating.

 

It was time for another world cleansing. The last time I let my mouth do the talking, it flooded for like 40 days or so, and almost everything died. I knew my fingertips could outdo that though so they spoke in their fingertip language and caused a travesty known as the videogame crash of 1984. The world trembled, and humbled themselves upon my feet for my judgments and they knew to always make sure games were playable. Unfortunately that only lasted like a year, so I'm working on my next move currently. I think i'll let my ass do the talking next time and blow it over Conspiracy Software.

 Lol...I am flattered with your statements...

But yeah, I've neer seen anything I could play street fighter with as good as saturn pad. dragon punch motion is best with it... Snes and ps2 pads are good for tap tap motions like Mortal kombat stuff...but for street fighter they are atrocious.

You need to get yourself a Hori sir. Easy on the wallet moths and comes with a can of compressed arcade stink free of charge.

Snes has the best D-Pad ever.

That is almost as funny as your quote about time. The SNES has the same D-Pad as the NES, Gamecube, Virtual Boy, Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Nintendo 64, Gameboy Advance, DS, and Wii. Nintendo had so much stock left over from the NES era they just kept recoloring the same D-Pads for new controllers. I don't expect them to run out for another two console lifecycles.

 

 

True.  Those systems did all have the best D-Pad ever



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I despise the 360 "d-pad" if you can truly call it that. All it is is an analog stick with a d-pad over slapped on top.

It's a shame because the 360 controller would be a truly awesome thing (and by far the best of all of that type of controller).

If you don't acknowledge Neo Geo as the D-Pad master, I'm going to have to revoke your "I know shit about games" card and demote you to a "I don't know shit about games" card. Don't make me do it sir. Too many people have been revoked and demoted recently and you know the last thing you want to throw out is the kitchen sink.

The 360 has the ugliest and most malfunctional D-pad I have ever seen and played... My problem is that half the time I click a horizontal direction (left or right) it goes with a vertical direction (up or down). I hate it. Now I have to use the analog stick to navigate menus whenever I can... It's supposed to be vice-versa...

It's the worst D-pad ever, it's blocky, and way to easy to his the wrong direction. It's the one really sore spot on an otherwise really nice controller. What's worse is no 3rd party has picked up on this little problem, and made a 360 controller with a different d-pad.
