Best alternative controller/joystick for AES?

I've always liked the feel of genuine arcade sticks, so right now I'm looking at the MAS Systems Super Pro Stick. Any opinions on this bad boy? What other manufacturers should I be looking at? And what's the best pad style controller out there?

Thanks!

It seems kewl... but does it worth its price? Maybe it does, but it also has something I don't like... the design for example, like the colours I mean... Anyway I must admit it should give that arcade feeling you are looking for.

Take care. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

I think a genuine arcade-quality stick is definitely worth the extra cost over the standard Neo stick. It has the button action I prefer (springy as opposed to clicky), and a firmer resistance in the joystick's motion.

I agree with you on the colors though. They should offer an all-black version or something. I'm willing to accept the less-than-stylish aesthetics for good performance.

I was just wondering if there were any other brands out there that I should be looking at, maybe same high quality but with more attractive design.
