Were these better than the SNES controllers?

>> No.4658367

The d-pad was better, but I do like 4 face buttons + 2 shoulder buttons over 6 face buttons.

No. It’s a meme that they’re the best controller. Fat mushy Dpad, weirdly shaped, un-ergonomical shoulder buttons, top row buttons too convex, too many buttons

It has one more button than the snes controller anon.

Six face buttons is a must for fighting games.

6-button fighters are passable if you have two shoulder buttons on the same side, like Playstation. Having to use left hand for anything other than movement always feels very awkward.

>> No.4658720

At least equally as good. Both SNES and Saturn are my favorite controllers.

6 face buttons is pretty weird indeed. i finished breath of fire 2 with a saturn pad and i still mixed up the buttons in the end. other than that it's perfect

No, it’s only useful for Capcom fighters. Play a fighter from another company sometime.

Snes controller is shit. Its not designed for longer gaming sessions, and the should buttons break way too quick. Its funny how the sony morons based their psx/dual shock controllers on such a flawed design.

I can only use fight sticks for fighting games. Controllers seem odd to use. However, the Sega Genesis had a bad ass 6 button with a shoulder "Mode" switch. Once you played 32x doom with it, and get used to ez- strafe & weapon selection its a really good console version.

Yes. They have two extra face buttons and a much better D-pad to say nothing about just being a comfy fit in your hand. Controllers don't get better than this.

A grown man would never use an obviously underage term like 'fightstick' to begin with.

>> No.4661172

>Were these better than the SNES controllers?

Absolutely. I wish the x, y, and z buttons were concave though, that would have made them comfier.

>> No.4661175

>>4661172
Agreed about this. The XYZ buttons start hurting my thumb after a while of playing some Capcom fighters.
No need to be concave, but I wish they were a bit less bead-like. The SNES buttons (the not concave ones) are just fine, as are the ABC buttons on the Saturn.
