I need a controller with a good D-Pad for PC, mostly to emulate shmups and run'n'guns on SNES and Mega Drive. I'm looking for good quality at a decent price.
I usually use the Dualshock 4 and Switch Pro Controller on PC, but those D-Pads are awful. I also have an old 360 controller, but I don't need to tell you why that wont cut it. I want something with a D-Pad comparable to the NES or the GBA

why are you gay

because cocks taste sooo good, you should give it a try.

I sometimes wish I was a woman, so that I could suck cocks.
Also, WiiU pro controller, not only has the best d-pad. But it's the best controller overall.

Gays hate straights so they had to steal their only sacred hobby of video games

all dpads are shit and inferior to using four face buttons as directional input, dpads need to be done away with already and just replaced with a 2nd set of four face buttons on that side

Get a arcade stick, but if you have to be lame and limit yourself to a dpad then get the Xbox series controller, you're gonna hate your hand after a few hours but at least you get precision

The joycon "dpad" is pretty bad, so no thanks.

Oh you're right, I do have that one somewhere in my house. Feel like an idiot now.

Google controllers with vita dpad clone

>>736355639
It won't natively connect to PC though, you need to get an adapter

Dualshock 4.

>>736355549
This was my solution. Shmups belong on arcade hardware.
As for console games, kids with parents that loved them were all playing with stuff like the NES Advantage anyway.

8bito has a bunch of Nintendo inspired controllers.

Most d-pads are awful.
8bitdos have this tendency to hit diagonals way too often. So do Dualsenses and such. Pretty much everything modern I've tried with rubber has some of that.
Honestly, this might be pricey, but have you tried hunting for an original controller and an adapter for it? I swear to jesus I have an SNES controller with a wired adapter I bought a long time ago, all beaten up, and it feels better than a lot of these controllers.
Of course you can switch to a clicky d-pad like those on the xbox controllers, but those feel like absolute garbage when you need to do constant fast inputs. They're more designed for shit like I don't know, jarpig menus.
Honestly I second the recommendation to grab an arcade stick instead, a seimitsu one. It's much of a better experience for shcmaschups
>>
>>736355330
Can you somehow make your pc recognize a ps vita as a controller?
>>
Vader 4/5 pro controllers have pretty good dpads and they handle diagonal motions well. Alternatively Hori makes controllers designed specifically for fighting games that have good dpads as well.

There's a homebrew app for that on Vita
