They came out with a Sega Saturn controller for the PS2 a little while ago, in Japan only. I've been looking around for a deal, Play-Asia and Lik-Sang have it for about $30 plus shipping, and a limited edition purple Darkstalkers version for $35. Is there any place that carries this for a little less, or even some place in the country that I could save a little on the shipping from? eStarland has it, but their shipping is really high too.

Play-Asia: $32.90 + $4.70 shipping

Lik-Sang: $29.99 + $7 shipping

Wow, I never knew those where out there. I loved the Saturn controller- It is by fer the best SF2 controller for a console. I remember lokking all over for something like this after the PS came out - I originally hated the PS controller. Sorry I cant help you with the price, but now that I know about them, I will be looking for a deal as well. I'll let you know if I find anything.

Funny you should ask about this, my friend just got the Darkstalkers controller recently at an import shop, I'll ask him how much it set him back.
 
[quote name='evilmax17']It really is weird to see the Playstation logo right underneath the Sega one.

Gotta get one eventually though.[/QUOTE]
I'll probably paint over it. I wish they had this for Xbox, but I can probably just use the PS2 to Xbox adapter for it anyway.
 
[quote name='dafoomie']No, I really don't... The Saturn controller is 100 times better. Its the best controller ever made. The SF controllers are cheap 3rd party crap.[/QUOTE]

lol to all statements made in the above quote.

Show me a controller thats better for 2d fighters.

The Street Fighter controller has the same layout, but its flimsy, the buttons are a little stiff, and the d-pad isn't nearly as good.
 
The Sega Saturn controller owns all other d-pad controllers for fighting games. I've got a Saturn-to-DC adapter for playing it on Dreamcast.

Dreamcast = best fighting game console with the worst fighting game controller.

I ended up getting the Xbox-live headset compatible Street Fighter Anniversary Joystick for my SF needs.

Agreed. Funny way of putting the fact that:

The Sega Saturn controller owns all other d-pad controllers for fighting games. I've got a Saturn-to-DC adapter for playing it on Dreamcast.

Dreamcast = best fighting game console with the worst fighting game controller. PS1/2 controllers suck hard for playing SF but are ok for Tekken, etc.
