I hate you-

Once I got an Avenue 6 pad for $1.25 & 5.00 shipping- but that's not nearly as sweet as your deal-

HAHA!  Awesome deal you got!  I'm surprised it even started at that price.  :)

Probably the best deal I got on PCE stuff was Fatal Fury 2 ACD (new) for Y50 ea in Akiba.  I bought 2 just for the hell of it, but when I sent a bunch of stuff back to the US, somehow the box busted open in transit and I lost both copies plus other crap too.  That sucked.

Haha, nice deal!

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

That's a huge steal. Kinda like the time I got both complete copies of Shining Force CD and Snatcher (both Sega CD) for under 5 bucks total.

It's a shame that pad stinks worse than a school of fish in an old sock. Still if you're desperate for 6 buttons..

It is bad? I've always wanted one. It looks good, I don't like the regular pad.

I wonder why they sold it for only five cents ....

I got one with my Duo RX, the D-Pad on it is horrible and I've gone back to using my bog standard 2 button pads.

I got one with my RX and I've always liked it, but I know what you're saying.  The D-pad feels sloppy sometimes.  I've been trying to find another one that isn't a fortune, so if anyone has an extra lying around let me know.  

I've always wondered- Is there a way to mod a PC-FX pad to work with a PCE- anyone know?

Not like an arcade stick, but a good as any other pad I've used(ave 6 for pce).  If you are comparing controls inbetween systems with SFII I think its better than the Snes(I don't like shoulder buttons) and the same as a 6 button pad for the Genesis.

I actually would prefer a Hori PC Fighting stick.

I'm a huge fan of hori's Japanese style sticks, every competitive console fighting game tournament I been to, alot of people used Hori.

Any recommendations for a really good controller? I don't like the original controller and I can't play using a joystick.
