They ****ing suck. Shaped like a Saturn pad, but has the soul of a XBox giant pad. the D-Pad blows, the buttons are both convex (concave >>>>>>>> convex) and it is unresponsive and downright janky.
Yup they pretty much suck... Plus mine made my Ps2 controller port loose.. since the connection was not as flush as the Sony ones. Thanks Capcom I buy 20 different versions of Street Fighter and 40 different versions of Mega Man and this is how they treat me.

I warned about those 2-3 years ago when they came out. Total crap. The pad sucks, the buttons suck, doesn't like to register two buttons being pressed at the same time unless your SUPER exact, and most idiotic of all, the pause button placement. SO easy to accidentally pause your game, or if online, stop moving and letting your opponent rape you for 5 seconds.
Oh yeah, and the controller stopped registering down after a month.
I personally own that ASCII FT Pad for my Dreamcast & it's awesome, I recommend it very much. The PS2 Saturn pad, well what can I say it's the Saturn pad but for PS2 so it too rocks. The SF controllers are trash, I've tried them, your better off with the PS2 controller & it's horrible 4 pieces D-Pad.
I don't have a problem with the Nuby pads. They're cheap, but they're not terrible, especially as far as Western-made 6-button pads go. I think the D-pad is fine, and I haven't had any trouble with simultaneous presses.
The start/select size and placement kinda sucks, though. They're too small and too close together. It makes it too easy to soft-reset in Tekken 5.
They're nothing compared to the Saturn PS2 pad, of course.
It's too bad Sammy decided to completely neuter their GGXX Slash pads, making them useless for any game but Mortal Kombat.
Yeah, I got the SF pad for Xbox, and it blows. Terrible D-pad, awful button feel and response, etc. A real disappointment.
I'm still kicking myself for not buying a Saturn-style PS2 pad when Sega released them since they're impossible to find now. Would have been awesome for all the Sega Ages and other compilations on the PS2 since the Dual Shock 2 sucks as much ass as the SF pad for 2D games.
