   @DrRyanSkelton @ChristiJunior @luithe I've done extensive research on 8bitdo and those dpads cant register inputs fast enough or it has a difficult time recognizing diagonals. I think its going to be a much bigger problem for more intense games like contra.

     I own several 8bitdo sf30 pros and I've never had a problem with the dpad. I have had button pads tear though, but they're easy to replace.

     @Dude @ChristiJunior @DrRyanSkelton @luithe Finding out what the best D-Pad is in general is hard without feeling each one. What's your favorite that you wish were recreated or applied to a newer controller? For me, it's the old Genesis gamepad.

     Yes. I've always like the feel of the original snes game pad. I've never liked handles. Thr PS1 style controller just felt awkward, and the N64 and GC controllers were just all kinds of wrong.
     
     Dual shock is a plus though, as is the extra analog triggers. Dual shock comes in handy even on old arcade games like Robotron or Smash TV, because you can set one to move and the other to control the direction of fire.

     @Humpleupagus @ChristiJunior @DrRyanSkelton @Dude @luithe Do the lack of handles on that gamepad feel better for you? I never felt the old dogbone-shaped SNES gamepad at all.
