Class! The ideal middle ground or beyond! If you are just starting out, just do it and don't overthink it. With its positives being: ten times the quality - Complete and immediate compatibility with Windows 7 -Comfortable -A multitude of buttons - A very lengthy cord -A fantastic addition to the Nintendo 64 emulator, as well as any other. -Outstanding compatibility with recently released games - Convenient analogues -vibro + -excellent for role-playing games, racing games, and emulators -Comfortable top triggers but not bottom levers -The ability to plug in SteelSeries headphones when relaxing and having fun on the couch at night while playing video games. Below are some downsides: -When I play fighting games, the right analog is a source of frustration for me (I end up hurting the vecho), and it would be preferable if they removed it. -The D-pad can be unresponsive in certain fast-paced fighting games (these games require a faster and smaller d-pad), and the bottom levers are not pleasant. You don't get the sense of being pressed or not, and there isn't a distinct click or huge move. It would be preferable if they were similar to the ones at the top.
