Just like it says, what do you feel you have better skills with? The SNES controller or the computer keyboard.

These both do noy include savestates of the likes too.

Poll results go here:

Controller: 10
Keyboard: 5

Also, sorry if I posted in the wrong section...
Woof.
SNES Pad, as there isn't the "3-key" limit on it and i have more mobility on the game
Keyboard. I've never used a SNES controller, and I'm pretty sure there's no limits on mine.
Good fucking bye.
SNES controller is awesome. ...Though it's too small for me now. D:

If I could get ahold of SNES controllers for the PC somehow, I totally would use it.
My blog. I could post stuff now and then

I've bought from the guy before, not this snes to usb, but his n64 one. Got my snes to usb elsewhere - and it works absolutely perfect. You'll need to get a snes controller from somewhere. (I'm selling one for $0.5 ;D, shipping around $3 to USA) but go to ebay and check them out.

It is too awesome being able to play them with the original controller. You can't go wrong.
Your layout has been removed.
Keyboard has a lot of possibilities, but it does not have side buttons that replace correctly L and R, so, controller.
Our world will stop advancing once humans manage to create sufficient magnificence for a whole lifetime. Until then, I just create.
Awesome video game music on my youtube channel
Controller, all the way. While I don't have a snes pad, I expect it to be a bit more confortable than a keyboard.
Keyboard. I have all my buttons and tool settings where I want them. It's my confortable position.
For some reason, I can't hold down more than two keys while playing an SNES game (i.e. in SMW, I can hold down Y and the "Right" button to run, but I cannot press B). That alone limits me .. not to mention the fact that it just seems a lot harder to play with the keyboard for me.

Controller all the way.
I stick with the keyboard as I am fairly good with using a keyboard.
I use both ;D

Same, and I even set L and R to savestate and load, as they are otherwise seldom used.

I use the controller because the 3 key limit makes playing the game annoying, also I'm just used to playing this game with a controller, would feel weird with a keyboard.

That keyboard problem only happens to me when I play a 2 player game with someone, other than how dumb it looks sharing a keyboard, it's not really that fun either.

I need a controller, but.......I still use keyboard.

The keyboard is just plain awkward for me I can't hold down multiple keys in order to play (as SNN said as well). I like the controller as it is a lot more comfortable and what I am used to.

They also have an adapter for a standard SNES controller.
I used to use the keyboard, but I realized a controller was mandatory to beat certain minigames in Mario Party, and to improve movement in Emulating in general.
SNES controller. I'm playing my SNES more than i'm on my computer.
I GRADUATED COLLEGE =D



I used to use my keyboard for hacks, and I was quite good with it, but when I saw a chance, I got a controller, and I've never used the keyboard since. Much more like the actual thing and easier to handle. It's set up like a Playstation 2 controller, too, so I have four shoulder buttons, two of which I can use as L and R and the other two for savestates...for testing, since I never use savestates when actually playing hacks.
