    Very happy you enjoy the build and gameplay. We put a TON of thought into its design. In addition to the 8, 12, 16 gate tops we also include a free spin top that let you play games like tempest, Breakout, Warlords and Arkanoid :). Also try Forgotten Worlds and Xybots GAME ON!

    It's an interesting experience. Only ever saw these on the SNK arcades. It's quite a departure from what was going on in the west with games like Robotron and Smash TV, which used twin arcade sticks.

    Nice! Cool to see you covering a GRS* product. He makes cool stuff in small batches and some of it is really impressive if you're into old arcade stuff! The packaging that is a buildable stick is a work of art. I'm tempted to buy two of them so I can install one in a proper control panel and build the other in the box and then never play it because it looks too nice.

      Thank you and I really try to make it
      Arcade Quality without the Arcade price
      I want people to be able to afford the best gaming hardware and enjoy the games as they were meant to be played. I really appreciate the support 😊😊

    As an ikari warriors fan i had no idea the control stick swivelled like that in the arcade…I played ikari warriors for the C64 and NES mostly back in the day

    I want this stick to become a thing, having both sticks available like this means we now have a way to play regular games that use both sticks with no problems. Like Dark Souls, you can move the character with the stick and the camera by twisting. Still no vertical movement, but fightsticks are walking torwards becoming full-fledged controllers that can be used for any normal game.

      Time Soldiers was a favorite of mine and I never had a satisfactory experience with it in MAME. This joystick would fix that.

    It would be cool if this controller is compatible with SF6. Zangief's 360 input would be so much easier.

      It's USB so you can use it with anything they let you use a usb joystick and buttons
      The spinner itself has different modes. It can be treated as a joystick hat, keyboard inputs, or mouse input
      So as long as your system console or emulator can accept a USB joystick with these functions and theory, it should work just fine

    Nice to see you got one. Grs has some good stuff. If you're into retro gaming, they have quality controls that don't break the bank. Some of these classic games has odd controls that just can't be replicated by an xbox controller.

    This is such an old man “in my day we didn’t have rides to school. We walked. In the snow. Uphill. Both ways.” Controller. Now we have twin stick controls for this type of game and it’s so much better.

      I mean, it's a retro controller. It's specially designed to play old games. Their inputs don't always convert well to modern pad layouts. This thing is 100% built for arcade enthusiasts.
