for ik+ I prefer the Suncom Totally Accurate Controller 2 (TAC-2), for everything else I rather use the Competition 2 joypad or SEGA joypad...

Wow, I am surprised very few mentioned SEGA Master system pads or SEGA Genesis pads!

All Amiga Joypads are irrelevant once you use these. They have the 2 buttons that not a Single Amiga joystick has.  That is Buttons  A and B  or rather B and C on a SEGA pad. Many Amiga games use this feature, Such as Turrican 1,2 and 3, Project X and a few other games I cant think of right now.

 I can never use a Joystick again after using these.

I suspect the HoneyBee CD32 pad is even better.

but credit indeed must go to joysticks Like the WICO and Zipstick and Cheetah bug.


On a Related topic......Check this out:

its got an Amiga monitor in it, and notice the C=64 to the left.

I built one of these once using an Amiga, and it accepted Quarters too!

CD32 is actually the best Amiga ever made by Commodore!...

   My favorite and I was thinking it would have been mentioned already was the Gravis Amiga Joystick.  It had a brass center post and around the post was a spongee material similar to irragation sweat hose.  The joystick was very durable and the best for playing wing commander, but not sure people who played shooters or arcade games would be as happy with this one.   Sorry no link or picture at this time but I still have two of them at home.
