Can somebody recommend a multi-button gamepad

As per the title, could someone direct me towards a gamepad that works well on the Amiga, with more than one fire button.

Thank you.

Another vote for the KTRL-CD32 (if you can find one). Excellent pads based on a SNES-style USB controller, with various programmable features like remapping up to a button, autofire options and more.

Also, an 8BitDo pad with a Megadrive receiver and suitable Megadrive-Amiga adaptor works well as a 2-button pad.

The Competiton Pro CD32 controller (Honey Bee)
Have had a couple of these for over 20 years now, does the job and looks good too

Another vote for the Honeybee CD32 controller, if you can find one. Very compatible and comfortable. I loved being able to change music in-game in Deluxe Galaga..

I love 8bitdo controllers. They have a huge range to fit most needs.

Did 8bitdo ever address the diagonal misfire dpad issues ?

The SNES SN30 Pro controllers I bought some years ago, I had to take those apart and tape up the PCB in the dpad area, it didn't solve the problem entirely but it did help to some extent.

It is DIY but really easy to build.
