    I'm looking for a good small profile controller to use for the original xbox (that's retro right? :D) Any recommendations?

    The xbox s controller is a damn fine controller. Like the 360 one but with a better d-pad. That should do you.

    I'm not sure an arcade stick is wise when it comes to stealthing ol' Sam Fisher around the CIA building :P

    Ah I assumed you meant to use it with emulators!

    Hmm, it is set up to do such a thing. I think it has a Genesis emu, a SNES emu. a 64 emu and a MAME emu on it, but I've never really got into them. Where did you get your arcade stick, as a matter of interest?

    Ebay, it's called the Radica XBOX Arcade Stick.

    Does the job. I find the stick a bit stiff though. Might loosen up over time. Very loud click from it too.

    Still, cool enough for a bit of xbox emulation. Especially MAME arcade games.
