I’ve been using a really old Dualshock 4. It was fine for modern, but I have switched to classic recently, and getting some inputs has been really difficult. The dpad is really mushy. Many times, I’m positive I’m holding down back but still end up getting hit because the controller doesn’t register the input as down back, it’s really frustrating. I love everything else about the controller, the button placement and the size suits my small hands really well.

Looking around I found some old threads where people were praising xbox controller but then I found this video and now I am not sure, the face buttons also seem really stiff. Other pads like HORI and Razer ones are way too expensive here so either I just buy a new DS4 and hope it’ll diminish my issues or buy the xbox controller.

    Don’t think Sega sold any hardware here officially, I looked up the controller, only results I could find were from foreign websites.

      What about access to arcade hardware from Sanwa and Seimitsu? Would need to build a shell and hook up a control board, though.

      What online retailers are available to you?

        The fighting game community here is tiny and not really connected, so stuff like custom parts for assembling your own stick is not really a thing, what’s available here is limited and expensive.

        As for retailers, just amazon pretty much, other online retailers don’t really offer anything different.
