Reasons to get something OTHER than U360's?
Blanka:
Just for the feel, I like the Sanwa's best. But they are hard to find nowadays. They are a needle in a haystack of chinese crap.

Daphne does not support U360. You have to run Joy2Key which defeats the whole purpose of the U360.

I like my u360's, but they seem to get "gummy" pretty quick. Maybe it's because I don't play them consistently (it might be a few months between powering it up for a session sometimes), but they get "sticky" and the only way to fix it is to completely disassemble the stick and clean and relube it.
I have mag stick pluses on P3 and 4, and they still feel exactly like they did when I first bought them.
It's cool to be able to switch them from 4-8 way without going under the panel. I've even seen some hacks using a servo that can switch them automatically.
But for shear convenience and universality, the 360's are hard to beat.

Not so. Daphne supports at least one gamepad, and the U360 is treated like a gamepad in Windows. I use one just fine.
Even so, joytokey features app-specific setting.

That is the absolute weirdest I've heard. I've been using one for years, and haven't had anything remotely like that happen.

Which version of Daphne works? Or when did they put it in? Thanks...
