Which do you prefer? Why?
I’ll be honest, I prefer dpads, they are more compact, more tactile and more precise. If I could I’d not use an analog stick in smash bros and just use dpad.

As with most, depends on the game. 2D I generally prefer D-pad, even if the game has 8 directions. For 3D, there’s really no choice.
My cursed option: I like playing fighting games with the d-pad.
Also a stray opinion: I hate games that mix the two on moment to moment gameplay. Using D-pad for pause menus while moving with the Analog, fine. Using d-pad to use items during live gameplay, like in soulslikes? Terrible.
I would have thought Dpad was the obvious choice for fighting games due to combo button combinations. Is it more common for players to use the joystick?
A fightstick is the ideal for anyone wanting to invest in the genre, as it provides both precise control and a wide array of movements that neither d-pad or analog can reach.
It was a joke-y cursed option because d-pad are not only wildly uncomfortable but also quite inefficient when it comes to the high speed sequences
