......I have a couple of them, but I haven't really used them much. I tried it on R-type once or twice and it was alright. Takes some getting used to w/ it being left handed. It is kinda strange this is how it all started w/ Sega's arcade sticks as they pretty much went on to develop amazing ones for their other systems. I feel it's about time to try them out again. Just wondering if anyone really uses theirs.

Hold it by putting your hands over each other instead of naturally. Works a bit better.

I had one back in the day, although I was no fan. I got one recently, I only use it for puzzlers, columns etc.

Being left-handed myself i always found it to be more uncomfortable using the control stick over the standard SMS pad. I have one now, but it is not used anymore

I use it for Bomber Raid all the time!! Actually any game that's a vertical scroller pretty much... I love it for those games. Tried it with platforms, not as good. Mortal Kombat goes alright with it. I like using mine

I don't like the crappy pads so I stick with the Control Stick. It's good on racing games like Outrun, but I like playing any game with it really..........

I use it for shooters, especially Space Harrier.

I have two of them, but I hate them. The stick is on the wrong side. Even though I am left-handed, I cannot play with those things. I just got used to playing with a regular controller. The only exception is the Atari joysticks with the fire button at the top left corner. I can play with those, but I also like using a Genesis controller to play Atari 2600 games

The sms control sticks are too small and flimsy - the top part doesn't stay still. The megadrive/genesis arcade power stick is the controller of choice as far as im concerned, I don't play with anything else now.

You know what, I think this is one thing I need to ask my contact about because I don't believe I did. The switching of the side must be explained.

I'm left-handed and I can't use that damn thing. I'm used to normal controllers. I'd have to use this backwards gay one for a while before I could play effectively with it.
