Hori Mini - good first arcade stick?

If you play on PC I recommend getting a Mayflash F300 or 8Bitdo Arcade stick - they can work on a PS5 too but you'd need an adapter. The Qanba Drone 2 is another good starter stick but it's a little more expensive and has native PS5 support. The Hori mini is not the worst thing ever but if you'll en

Looking for arcade stick recommendations

There are some budget arcade sticks I'm aware of: Hori fighting stick mini, Mayflash F500, 8bitdo arcade stick. I'm not sure how easy they are to mod but they should be decent for under $100.

Would it be worth buying a Hori Stick Mini for the parts?

So, years ago I was in the exact same position as you. At the time, my choices for a cheap arcade stick were either the HORI Fighting Stick Mini, or the Mad Catz Arcade FightStick Alpha. I ended up buying the HORI Fighting Stick Mini as my first stick, since it had more buttons than the Alpha. It wa

Is it possible to reduce this fightstick's noises ? (Pic down below)

I have two of these devices and have opened them up and unfortunately the buttons are membrane switches. Imagine them as giant game pad buttons which is making contact to the board. Since these are not your normal arcade buttons the only way to make it quieter with the design intact it will need som

Stick Recommendations for Casual User

To anyone looking into something as small as the Hori Fighting Stick Mini and mainly for PC use, I would strongly recommend the Mayflash F300: Costs is similar to the FS Mini. Arcade parts swappable (lever, buttons and a $5 harness). External USB port for PS4/PS5 compatibility with the MagicBoots-S5

Cheap fight sticks for ps5?

Nah, as long as the licensed PS4 arcade stick is in PS4 mode (some have switches to toggle between PS3 and possibly PC) and plug it into your PS5, they will just naturally work with most PS5 fighting games genre because legacy support is a developer implemented feature as the PS5 released back in 20

Arcade sticks recommendations for a newbie

Do you have a preference for using leverless or levers? Are you just wanting to play around with an arcade stick? Move to one entirely? Depending on what your goals are, I'd say the amount or money you spend up front should be tailored to that. If you just want to play around with an arcade stick, m

Looking for recommendations

For PS5 NEW I would recommend the Drone , small stick , light weight, and you can still change the buttons and lever, Hori mini cannot be customized unless you have wiring skills. OR look for a used PS4 stick , still works on PS5

Hori Mini - good first arcade stick?

I have a similar one (Lioncast arcade), it still works except one button is not really responsive unless I hammer on it and the issue is you cant replace parts with mine and the hori mini since ea. button is not connected seperatly. STILL it works since 5+ years I recommend '8bitdo' for a cheap go i
