Arcade Joysticks

[Juniel]

Hi all.

 

What controllers do you guys use when playing on emulator?

 

I figured keyboard has reached its limit and i need something better

 

to play my games on....so I wanna ask you guys to see which ones

 

are good and which are bad.

 

Now. There is that famous X-Arcade...(very expensive..)

 

However I thought it wasn't so good as I need to play KOF and

 

the button layout does not favor SNK games.

 

Saulabi SCS-2000 USB Arcade Joystick ->this is the one I am after.

 

Quite cheap at playasia.com, I think it is worth it. It has a 4 button

 

layout for SNK games.

 

Anyway, tell me what you guys use eh?

Gamepad. I need to buy a new one, since my two Sidewinder pads are useless.

I use my PS2 controller to play games. I bought a cheap-o style arcade stick from ebay, but it didn't work right. I didn't make a fuss about it since it was only a dollar.

I've heard very good things about this one; I'd love to buy it. I've never tried it though.

Only problem is price. However that's Sega stuff, it should be very good and last a long time.

Arcade games = Multiple methods, usually my PSX pad, sometimes MS Sidwinder......mouse and keyboard for shooting games.

 

NES + SNES + GB/GBA = SNES pad on LPT adapter I built (This is VERY simple btw)

 

Playstation = Duh, PSX pad

 

Genesis = MS Sidewinder (Closest you can get to the real thing)

 

Anything else usually finds me with the PSX pad, but it depends.

 

If I was to use an arcade stick for arcade games though, I'd build a real one. PC Joysticks are ass for ANYTHING but flight sims.
