That controller is fast becoming my favourite from any system! Well worth the money. The only reason I gave you that particular link is that it's one of the only places you can still buy it from.

that's pretty.
I'm very strongly considering this though:
Oh yes, that's a good one too. (but microswitches! you want microswitches!)
If you want a solid Neo-Geo pad knockoff for PC, 360 (and I believe tit works for PS3 if configured correctly like a Saturn USB controller) check out the new Marvel Vs Fighting pad that came out around when MVC 3 released.
It's a near perfect Neo Geo pad ripoff complete with micro-switched mini thumbstick and fully microswitched buttons:
It's $60-$90 online and sold out everywhere, except for GameStop where it's still $40 and in stock. I've also got one at my store I could grab for you if you're interested.

got a link to the GS product page?
EDIT: nevermind, found it. It's kinda ugly IMO. And wired. Think I'll stick with the SF4 pad.

But the SF4 one is just as ugly and large, and wireless lagged.
On a serious note, try for a Saturn USB pad. It's just as comfy and awesome as the original ones and works on the PS3 no prob. Plus, it's typically only $20-$30 online.

the SF4 ones aren't ugly. They're just single characters. That 360 one is so busy. I just don't like the look.
Lag? Really? How much lag? I sit like 2 feet from my PS3. I have no lag with my Dualshock.
What most attracts me to the SF4 pad is it looks the same size/shape/layout as my PS2 SF2 pad. Which I love!!

The DualShock has no lag as it's a direct feed controller, but the 3rd party wireless PS3 fightpads coupled with certain TV's make me all wonky at games. It's the whole controller that's wireless then emulating a wired one at the reciever dongle on the USB port that introduces lag when coupled with my already latent TV.
By ugly I just meant the shape and size make if feel like a bloated Saturn controller rather than a proper fightpad. It always seems to throw me off a bit when I use one as I prefer light and small controllers.

Probably this or other climate-related issues. They don't just randomly decide to stop working, there's always some reason.
I've never had an issue with any PS1 memory cards though. I regularly use the first two that I've ever bought back in 96 or whenever.
Well I do practically live in the Australian bush. One Minute its freezing cold, the next its as hot as hell. That's random Perth weather for you, changes whenever it damn well pleases.
