         I seriously wish that Hori had made an excellent Genesis joystick   
   like they did for the Saturn, or even the 360.  With that said, I   
   haven't had a Sega brand control pad die on me since the early 90s.  I   
   did go through a couple Sega brand 3 button joysticks back in the day   
   though.  And that was after having taken them apart and cleaned them   
   several times.  At any rate, a good joystick can go a long way to   
   "emulating" the feel of the original hardware.  We should all know by   
   now that Dual Shock and 360 controllers are just not as responsive as   
   the Sega pads of yore.
