Super Street Fighter IV Wireless FightPad – Ken




I picked this controller up today and am pleased. Moves are easier to pull off, it’s lightweight and the response time seems to be better than the standard PS3 controller. The only reasons I don’t give 5 stars are because:
1.) It’s only for fighting games. Any game that uses an analog stick won’t be compatible with this pad. For $40 I’d like it to function for all my games and not have to switch it out when I play Madden or Batman.
2.) The select and start buttons aren’t elevated above the rest of the controller so it’s harder to find them without looking at the pad. This is probably something I’ll get used to, but I don’t like it right now.
Edit 1. So there’s this little switch at the bottom of the controller that allows the directional pad to function as either the regular Dpad OR the right or left analog stick. This should allow the controller to be used for at least a few more games but still not for games that utilize both analog sticks or the Dpad and sticks simultaneously.
