Netphantom is having a bit of trouble against opponents on Xbox Live. His theory: his opponents are using superior technology developed for the era of 2D fighting games - The Sega Saturn controller. This was, in my eyes, the ideal 6 button gamepad for fighters. None of this L and R crap - you could swiftly deliver your Street Fighter 2 arcade combos without cracking your wrist on a large format joystick. A resourceful hacker on Xbox Scene has found a way to connect the dots and rig a Saturn controller to his Xbox 360 and even shows us they joypad in action on video. It's also safe to say that he finished this project at 4am, because you can't see a damn thing. I'd love to buy something like this... but I'll wait till version 2.0 when they figure out a way to do it without leftover props from The Matrix.
