Thanks for the response. I never tried anything other then Sanwa and Hori parts, but I might be planning to try out semitsu/hitbox style buttons and some sticks are hard to customize. Wouldn't the PCB in the long run also be a good investment if next gen consoles don't have BC to last gen sticks? (unless Mike Z makes a new firmware or something)
I would hope so, as it would be nice if the Brook UFB supports whatever next gen systems use. I'd even take it dropping PS3 if it gives them room in the firmware to support PS5.
Probably 90% it won't work with the next generation short of games being able to implement backwards compatibility in software. It rarely does. That's just not something under your control and not really worth mulling over, especially since we're at least 2-3 years out from it being a practical issue.
Yeah, you're right. And with MK11 and DBFZ Season 2 around the corner I'll definitely want to have an arcade stick.
doesn't seem to be enough resistance. It's probably just not screwed in properly and I didn't notice.
I figure it depends on how much of the original stick you're going to keep. Like if you plan to swap the PCB, stick, buttons, and top/layout...what's left of the original stick, the base? Is that worth $100-150 or however much it'll cost? At a certain point if you're replacing enough you might as well get a custom enclosure and get what you want...assuming one of the AFS designs works for you (there's more than he puts on the site btw, message him for all the options).
The hayabusas are more responsive than the sanwas in my experience. Like almost annoyingly so.
I love smaller form factor sticks and the magnetic cover for the cable organizer looks neat. I might have to pick one of these up.
Nice, good to see more budget sticks for the Switch. Can only recall 8-Bitdo having one, and I assume Mayflash would have one out by this point.
Haha yeah, that would be pretty cool!Damn. It's a shame they don't do something like this:
I kind of wonder why they didn't. Couldn't have cost much more (if anything) to add a slot that wasn't hideous and still allowed the cable to be plugged in.
Maybe they thought it didn't go with a 'professional' look, and it would look more like a toy that way. If it wasn't obtrusive, like you said, maybe yeah. Not their 'market' though, I think.
I guess there's nothing stopping me gutting my current iCade Core and replacing the existing PCB with Switch-compatible wiring! Maybe not from that joystick specifically, but I'm sure the Switch has one that doesn't require an adapter.
Really liked the PS4 version of the stick.
Ah, I think that was my problem. I thought I had to press these small tubes together, no wonder it didn't help.
The madcatz that made those sticks no longer exists. So probably not.
Thanks for the information. That's kind of what I thought. Not sure what I'll get then but I'll go back to looking at the Qanba Obsidian and Razer Panthera.
Thanks a lot for the information. Sounds like it'll be kind of a pain either way and both are good. I'll probably just decide what looks good as a base for now in case I never get around to having the artwork done but its good to know there are solutions out there for either stick.
Scroll down to the Installation part.
That looks so rad! Love the beat up green look on the bottom.
