specifically, the street fighter series of games. i just got street fighter 3 and marvel vs capcom for my dreamcast. i'm used to have six buttons (two rows of three buttons) when playing, rather then the playstation style layout of the controller. i have a mad catz controller, and it looks like the sega genesis controller, but the two buttons all the way on the right don't seem to do what i want them to. basically, i want to set the top row of buttons to each punch, and the bottom row to eack kick. i just can't seem to get the hang of throwing a fireball by pressing the L or R button with my index finger. my question is, do they make a controller for dreamcast like the old school sega genesis controllers?

i suggest going against the dreamcast arcade stick...i had one and it pretty much sucked...try looking for a third party controller

and yes indeed the dreamcast gamepads do suck for fighting games...the triggers just aren't very firm and the d-pad leaves much to be desired, it's too bad all the great fighting games came on to the dreamcast but the pad just sucked arse...it's worse than the ps pads :(
