I dont have a joystick that would work, also it would be to hard to do moves....So I will say keyboard because it's pretty easy to perform moves.

keyboard is always better then the joysticks !

here is why !
KEYBOARD
- accurate
- precise
- easier to manipulate
- priority over all other INPUT except for mouse

JOYSTICK
- precise
- if 8-way pad (round) too accurate make it difficult to play games
- if 4-way pad (4 separate arrows) it is accurate enough
- not manipulated easily (one way to hold)
- is almost last in INPUT priority, which makes a delay in response time !

overall... keyboard will always be better !
don't believe me... try playing some fighting game with the keyboard and then play with the joystick you are the most accustomed to. you'll notice how hard you will have problems with your joystick that you didn't have with you keyboard !

also... some statistic i made with a friend !
GAME KEYBOARD JOYSTICK
WIN % WIN %
DBZ : HYPER DIMENSION 75% 25%
GW : ENDLESS DUEL 60% 40%
MSH VS STREET FIGHTER 65% 35%
XM VS STREET FIGHTER 70% 30%
MARVEL SUPER HEROES 65% 35%

that's enough !
my friend and i are about the same in fighting techniques and skill, its almost always 50/50 on a console !
when i left the joystick and took the keyboard.
the role were inversed. but i was winning more because he wasn't accustomed to my GAMEPAD PRO !

so you see, its almost always better to have the keyboard if you want the advantage over a gamepad !
