No one can answer that question except you...controls are perhaps the most subjective arcade cabinet part.  What are you trying to do? MAME? Console games?

Then you don't need a U360. A U360 is best for someone who wants to play classic 4-way games and 8-way games.

Sounds like you need a Sanwa JLW-UM 8 or something similar.
