I have the Pro and really like it. I feel the death star shot is easier on the pro and given it's importance and my skill level its what I need.
Concerning satisfying shots I would say somewhat, but when you beat an objectives thats very satisfying (escape from Boba Fett, light saber duel, destroying death star, beating a mission, etc.)
I seem to get the most bang from playing Han and selecting Endor to get to death star. I think it's a blast others would disagree.
