Anyone know if the SF FightPad is worth it? I wanna play SSF2THD on xbla and some classic arcade games on it like Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection. Is it worth the money? I'm trying to find one on ebay they go for around 20-30 bucks.

They're okay, I own both a PS3 and a 360 version of the pad. But I feel like the d-pad wouldn't take much punishment. I certainly can't see it holding up to a lot of action in games like Street Fighter.
They work fine for slower paced action like Sonic.

I have been using the PS3 version for SFIV since February and it works great.
You can also get a USB Saturn pad from ebay for around $20 for a more accurate Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection experience.

well I just looked the Saturn USB pad on ebay and it all it says is something about the PS3, so are they compatible with the 360?
EDIT: found out they only work for the PS3 so it looks like I'm stuck getting the SF one

That controller is alright, but it could have been a lot better. My main issue with it is there is a problem getting the diaganols on the D-Pad to respond every single time which forces you to push down harder than you would like to get it to work. There aren't too many controller options for the 360 though so you really don't have much of a choice on the matter. It is still is a great improvement over the standard 360 controller for fighting games and old school games.

I think they're great, Mine has taken a ton of Street Fighter 4 punishment and is still going strong. Worlds better than the 360 D-pad for sure.

Can someone send me a link to this Saturn pad, I know for me, that's the only reason I wanted a FightPad, so I could play Saturn and NAOMI games on the PC and have it be authentic.

I've never encountered a PC USB pad that didn't work on a mac.
OSX supports just about anything that's HID compliant.

Does anyone have a 360 Fightpad they're willing to sell for around $30? I've been looking for one, because it's actually impossible to be good with the regular 360 controller.

The fightpad is excellent. I used them before I converted to a stick, and I was able to do everything I wanted to do.
