In my opinion it was much more than the D-pad. In fact, I have pretty much always favored Nintendo D pads over other consoles for fighting games. Moreso in the street fighter/KI type with quarter and half circle motions for the special moves. I always either had a hard time pulling it off on sega or sony controllers or just plain didn't feel comfortable doing it.
My first and biggest pet peve with the game was the feel. The timing was just off for many of the combos. Perhaps I'm being unfair compairing it to the arcade but damn it... MK and SF ports were always pretty much spot on. Why not KI?
Another (minor) thing was the graphics. Remember the Arcade was out quite a while before the N64 was out, but the "Ultra 64" advertizement suggested that this is what we would get on the home console. The animation wasn't as good either. It was just a big disappointment for me.
Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!
