Great Beginner Stick
This fightstick is very good for beginners like me. I love fighting games but I'm only good at Super Smash Bros. Melee. I've been wanting to branch off to other fighting games so I was looking for a relatively cheap stick to buy. I've never used a fightstick before so i'm not sure what high end fightsticks feel like with Sanwa or Seimitsu parts. However, this fightstick doesn't feel cheap and I'm glad to say that I am very satisfied with my purchase.
It has a nice weight to it in my opinion, although most of the weight comes from the metal bottom plate. The size is perfect for me because I am short and I have small hands(its about the same size as a Madcatz Street Fighter 4 SE Fightstick).
This fightstick can also be easily modded. It comes with a square restrictor gate that you can swap out for an octagonal or a circular gate. I replaced mine with a Sanwa octagonal gate. The buttons are wired with quick disconnects so you and swap out the buttons very easily. The stick comes with microswitches that are individually soldered. You can also swap out the stick since the PCB has a 5-pin connection.
Pros: Easily modifiable, good size for people with small hands, nice weight, responsive buttons and stick, usable on basically every platform
Cons: You need a 1st party controller plugged in at all times when using on consoles(for Xbox 360, you need a WIRED 360 controller), the buttons and stick might feel very lacking to someone who has used a high end fightstick, might be too small for people with big hands.
