Okay guys, in anticipation for the release of Killer Instinct for the PC, I bought a Hori Fighting Commander 4 gamepad as soon as it was released, months ago…

Why? The Hori Fighting Commander 3 Pro sold out soon after it was initially released, and no one could get their hands on them.

I never unboxed the Hori Fighting Commander 4, and my friends were FURIOUS! They wanted to try it out!

“No,” I said, “This is for Killer Instinct.” I am a patient guy, especially when I know something good is coming.

I have been holding on to this thing, boxed, for months!

Fast forward to today, I unboxed my controller and WTF? Nothing.

D-Input = fail? This is NOT cool.

I know you guys are trying to sell your X-Input controllers and accessories, I get that. But not supporting other gamepads and fightsticks by ditching D-Input, is border-line LUNACY!

Microsoft Windows is supposed to be everyone’s playground, isn’t it?

Apple = Fail Windows = Hail, right? RIGHT??

PLEASE fix this…

This is what you did to me, by pretending to overlook such an important thing…

I very recently purchased the new Hori Fighting Commander, which is X-Input, because I absolutely MUST have a controller that works with this, with no input lag, and now…

Now I have insufficient credits on my card left to buy the game.

That’s right, all I could do was purchase Shadow-Jago, so now I have a poor man’s Killer Instinct.

A poor man’s Killer Instinct!

I live in an island paradise known as Barbados. These controllers came from really far away, and I paid alot for them.

To carry this Killer Instinct into a community that depends on my laptop, backup batteries and gamepads to enjoy outdoor sessions on the beach or on the street corner, with only 2 characters available… Shadow Jago, and the flavour of the week character…? UGH!

What a disappointment to all us island guys.

And the girls who want to play and hold the real matches up longer.

Anyway, I don’t want to use a program like X-Padder or Joy2Key to enable my wired Hori Fighting Commander 4. I never had good results using that in MAME, etc.

I expected a seamless experience here, this is 2016.

I may have to resort to using some program, but I don’t want to.

I paid $50.00 USD for the Hori Fighting Commander 4 gamepad, assuming that when you guys made Killer Instinct for the PC, there wouldn’t be such a glaring issue as not supporting D-Input.

Assumption is the mother of all mistakes. Okay… okay.

Killer Instinct is a great game, I owned the black cartridge and the audio CD for the Super Nintendo, gawked in awe at the KI2 cabinets in the arcades in the city (what an amazing spectator game) and finally, I owned Killer Instinct Gold for the N64.

I don’t intend to let you guys down, please fix this promptly if at all possible.
