I was actually thinking of getting one of those!
Can you possibly give me a rundown on what you like/dislike about it? I really wanted to grab one for Tekken, but from all the pictures, that pad doesn't look too comfortable. How is it compared to a PS3 controller?
I can share my experiences with it, as a long time pad player its similarity to the old saturn pad which is still my fav of all pads is a very big plus and it's layout is quite possibly its best trait and I think it as one of the best pads for fighters out their shape wise(analog stick pad users will probably not find much merit her, all d pad all the way.)
That said it has a very big downside in a very weak dpad and I have heard of many people have only gotten so much use out of it before the down gets stuck or other such issues. I am nowadays primarily a stick user, but have often considerd trying their latest line as quite simply, pads are much easier to bring to tourneys and their new line finally has the ps versions wired instead of wireless(what were they thinking?). I believe the new line is also smaller which is a good thing as the old run could feel a bit big in my hands(and I'm 6'5" that's not easy, though a mate of mine is a fervent user of the pads and 2 heads shorter, so it's not a bad thing perse)
I dont know how much better the survivability is of the new dpads, but those might be worth checking out if you like pads.
Compared to a PS pad it is a larger distance between your hands, but the Dpad feels much better to me and 6 face buttons and 2 triggers is my preference. It might feel a bit lighter in the hands though.
