Buying a Saturn 3D controller
Do Saturn 3D controllers tend to wear out? I want to buy one but not sure what to watch out for.

The stick at least is actually more resilient than any modern ALPS potentiometer-based stick so the 3D part is good. D-Pad should be as durable as any other saturn one. I feel like if anything would be weird it's maybe the detachable cord connector or maybe springs in the triggers?shmupsrocks wrote: ↑Thu Nov 07, 2024 1:46 am Do Saturn 3D controllers tend to wear out?

Ok it sounds like they're pretty tough. Are there good 2-player games that use the analog stick?

The one that comes to mind is Daytona USA CCE (the JPN version)shmupsrocks wrote: ↑Thu Nov 07, 2024 2:03 pm Ok it sounds like they're pretty tough. Are there good 2-player games that use the analog stick?
That was one of the few games that impressed random non-gamer friends of mine back in the day, and they had a blast playing it.
Sonic R is another 2 player analog racer. I loved it once I got accustomed to the controls.
