Most of the good fighting game stuff is wired because wireless is annoying garbage when you're running a tournament and people keep switching in their own sticks.

That's a stupid fucking reason.

I think there might also be something like 1 frame of input lag added to wireless sticks. Might not seem like a big deal, but it means switching from stick to stick gives you different timing for reversals and such. I mean, the usual idea is if people are willing to pay money for a good stick, which is kinda niche, they don't want added input lag. There is a further niche market for people who like decent sticks with no wires I guess, but maybe it just isn't big enough for a decent stick? It used to be you HAD to mod a stick to get a decent one.

Well it's the internet. Everyone wants to front about how hardcore they are. Using a wireless (lol) joystick without real Sanwa (2xlol) doesn't give you any cred.

It reminds me of the Pump sneakers.

Input lag is a non-issue for most modern wireless controllers. There have been benchmarks for Sixaxis/Dualshock 3 and Wireless 360 controllers proving this.

I'd like to play with TNLers but Rocca is never on and noone else here plays on PS3.

I haven't even touched the PS3 version of Super online, but I see Internets (aka Do You Like Erotic) playing it on PSN a lot when I am on the PS3. Try adding him? When do you guys play? Maybe I'll hop on the PS3 version for once. I play on 360 cause that's where my friends are playing (and XBL > PSN).

This one seems good:

Well I mean, there are different price point products for different types of people. I spent years playing guilty gear in tournament with one of the shittiest sticks out there, and I was very well known for having some of the best execution in the country. That being said, I am old now and don't want to put the work in to make a shitty stick work, I would rather a nice stick where everything is super easy to do. Luckily SSF4 does half the work for me.

All in all, even the really shitty japanese styles sticks are better than a pad for me.
