Its just more natural for me. We had game pads in FTC, and I use game pads in video games. There also a lot easier to get around and I like them, but there probably not as sensitive as joysticks.

Radio Shack or Wal-mart have the ones you seen in the case for like $16.99.

Looks good, we do something similar with those same gamepads. If you find the right tool, the DeWALT kitboxes fit the joysticks perfectly

We use one of the silver metal cases to carry around "Internet" with us just incase any teams at competitions need it. Its clearly labeled "The Internets"
