I am a new alpha player and I need a more convenient pad face setup; so I'm switching to a 6 button layout.I also need a reliable D-pad that wont cramp my rotational inputs. I have two brief questions to ask.

1) Between the:

HORI HP3-84U Fighting Commander 3 Pro Sony PS3 Controller ($35)

http://www.google.com/products/cata...=X&ei=YktlT-HfJYTsrAfFwoi9Bw&ved=0CJIBEPMCMAU

or
Mad Catz Street Fighter X Tekken FightPad SD ($40)

http://www.amazon.com/Mad-Catz-Street-Fighter-Tekken-Playstation/dp/B006ZTHGPW


or

the Sega Saturn USB Controller ($60)

Which one would you suggest and why?

My last question is a simple one. What config do you use on your pad?
 
dom did you check this one out:

This one I think it's only in Playasia.com for $45 plus $8 shipping.

Every button consist of very responsive mechanical switches. Even the stick makes a clicky type of sound.

Anyways I tried the Hori Fightpad it's good for me to say the least since I haven't experiment with the other pads.

So do you prefer this Neo-Geo Control over the Hori?

Is the Neo Geo's D-pad very precise or does it allow rotations like a ps3 controller?

Do you own both controllers?
 
I own the Hori Fightpad but not the Neo Geo.

I posted there in your post just to give you something to think about.

Also I posted my thoughts on the HORI pad here.

Also x 2 this should be posted under Technology & Support since this is more of a technical matter.
 
Hands down, the Sega Saturn controller is the overall best pad for fighting games period.

$60 LOLWUT?! You find these on eBay ALL THE TIME for no more than $20. Totally worth it. Also doubles as an excellent PC controller for emulators.

Hmmm... I don't know what would be a good config for SC on a 6-button layout controller. I would say to make the bottom three buttons as A, B, and K. L as A+B+K and R as G. Then the top three buttons as other macros. (A+B, A+K, etc)
 
I bought a Madcatz WWE Brawl fightpad recently but I just did so to tear it apart and use the board to replace the busted one in one of my fight sticks. Though I havn't actually gotten around to installing it yet as I am a massive procrastinator. My SF one worked great when I used it though, never even knew about the other ones.
