Anyone have any other recommendations?
I'm still using my wired XBox 360 controllers and I still think the dpad is terrible. It's too easy to hit a diagonal by mistake and get stuck on a ladder in Burger Time or Bagman for example. I prefer the Playstation style D-Pad.
Many years ago I bought a cheap gamepad and made a USB interface out of it so I can use my old Atari standard joysticks from the 80s. It's wrapped in electrical tape and looks like something a cat might throw up but it works really well, I soldered where the contacts meet and wired up a female DB9 connector, it's not hard to do.
