A good classic with bad controls

I love KOF series... Since KoF 94... All the chars, stories, bosses... But why this port (and KoF 97) cant have good controls like KoF i-2012? The SP button doesnt do the move we want, but the move the game thinks its good for the situation... And its almost impossible to use the direction button... KoF 97 and 98 are the best ports, but have the worst controls...
