In 2026 what fight sticks are worth 200 bucks?

Based off Amazon's prices: Obsidian 2 ($200): Classic case of "Bigger is Better", if you're looking for a wide arcade stick similar to the Hori Fighting Edge, it's a great choice though it has the typical Qanba addon problem where some of the modern amenities have to be purchased on the side like a

Leverless for life!

yeah it is, the Naicon Daija and Hori Fighting stick alpha or even the Quanba Obsidian 2 are much better than the drone and those are the similar tier as the Kitzune, the drone is closer to the haute42 in terms of quality

Cons: Has a lot of screws (bottom set of screws to release the top plastic tub, one tiny screw on top hidden under the

Arcade Stick

If it’s your first arcade stick, all four of those are decent but they sit in slightly different categories. Qanba Drone 2 – good entry-level stick. Lightweight and affordable, but the stock parts are basic and many people upgrade them later. Mayflash F700 Elite – probably the best value here becaus

I've been thinking of getting an arcade stick, any brand reccomendations for an entry level budget?
