3do Joypads - terrible or just old?
Looking for some advice with 3do joypads. I have recently gotten back into the 3do and have purchased a few (too many) consoles and about a dozen pads. Now i don't know if i have just gotten lazy with using analogue sticks but the d pads are terrible, they are stiff and difficult to use(found the ps1 the same as well), is this wear and tear or were they always this bad. I also have some fz-10 joypads which are a little better and some sealed 3do speedpads which i have not opened yet.
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a good pad as these are just torture and are putting me off playing a number of games. (i remember having a Goldstar pad a long time ago and i think they were pretty good).

they work pretty good if you like SNES controllers to begin with i never really cared for them that muchCrimsonGlory wrote:Im no expert but I believe there are adaptors available on the net that let you use SNES pads with your 3do.
They might be poo.

the goldstar controller has been the one ive used since 1997, mainly because it feels like the Genesis controller, another fav controller of mine
i am just the opposite, i dont care for Analog sticks

Don't expect any confirmation emails, i thought i was getting ripped off for a week, then it appeared on the order tracker and was very impressed with the delivery time, they also do them for many other consoles (I have 2 Neo Geo ones if anybody knows anyone who would be interested).
Simply click on hardware, then scroll down (or search for 3do).
