Respectfully sir, you are on crack.
This is a possibility, but I can tell you that in PCE circles, the RX pad is considered the least/worst of the 6-button options available for the PCE, mostly due to the d-pad.

Yes, I have a Duo-RX with both the stock 6 button pad and an Ave 6 pad and the D-pad is definitely better on that one. Although the stock controller is not terrible. I love discussion on the PCE/Turbo, its such a neat system. I am going to Japan next month for vacation and I am super excited to go to some shops and dig up some old PC Engine games for reasonable prices. Especially on Hu-card only games since they tend to be highly devalued in Japan when they are missing the case.
I haven't tried the PC-FX pad but I do have the Ave 6 pad and I can say it is a damn comfortable controller. I use it as my main PCE controller as the stock one that came with my PCE looks like it was stored in a dogs anus for a decade
The Avenue Pad 6 looks like it would be a crappy controller. It looks plain and uninspiring, and yet the size and shape are good and the D-pad responsive. Function over form.
regarding the 6 button controller, how many games were actually made for it? SF2 and the Neo Geo ports (i would think?) , anything else? thinking of getting one just for variety's sake
Mad Stalker MIGHT use it. The Kabuki fighting game definitely does. Some of the SCD fighters, like Flash Hiders, use it, too. I don't recall all of them, however. I'll go dig around on PCEFX later today and try to get back to this with something more concrete.
My mistake. I forgot their forums are private. Here's the meat of the post that applies to the discussion here:
