Depends on personal preferences.

1) If you want a good arcade joystick, do not get the ultimate.  :P

2) If you need to "feel the corners" get the competitions.  The movement is almost circle with gentle bumps when you roll the joystick past a diagonal.

3) If you want a free circle movement around the edges, or don't care about how it feels, get the supers.  (Note: some people have had problems with super's microswitches, but most have not.)

P360s <-- most of the CVS2 arcade machines are built with that joystick ;).

Supers are great too... but I like the p360s a bit better.

of course you like P360 :)..(who doesnt) but only drawback..it cost a lot($40 each).

If you want the BEST BEST feeling...perfect 360s are way to go.i will be replacing mine with p360 very soon. :D
