Best controller for fighting games?

[sethian0]

no srsly tho if you play sf4 you probably plink, so if you do, you need this. gg

a few people have but hitboxes are young.

I feel like it’ll be a couple years into the ps4/xbone era of fightan (like when games are actually out) when hitboxes really get into the scene.

I highly doubt that Hitboxes will ever become big in the FGC. It’s the 3D TV of tech.

Gotta disagree with you there. With the albeit small but growing number of keyboard warriors I think they’ll continue to grow, and I think in some cases they are actually superior input devices.

Thank being said, six button sticks for life.

i think purism is the best way to answer this question. in a game that’s supposed to use an 8-way joystick and 6 buttons, the “best” controller is going to be just that. if you’re playing something like snes sfii, you may as well use an actual snes pad. and mortal kombat really has to be experienced with that big old x of face buttons.

i’m not sure about pc fighters, though i imagine any given doujin fighter expects people to use keyboard (and not a/s/d+space or a hitbox)… i wonder if fearless night is going to be different.

edit: lol fucking MACROS, this thread was doomed from the start
