    the master system pad was great, after a few months it was so smooth and it took me ages to get used to the megadrive pads when i got one of em..

    the jaguar pad, oh dear ...it was like playing a game on a 1970,s telephone..

    nice link m8..


    Why does "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean
    the same thing?

    neo geo ones may not have been included since it didnt really have any part in the evolution of the controller, if it had changed with another version of the neo geo it would have been added Id expect.

    true! ... they weren't really a main stream console were they... I had one but it was only because I came across it by chance. They did have very good joysticks, when I got mine it had already served a few years in a games workshop getting hammered 12 hours a day all year round. I had it for three years after that and never had any problems...
