I want this one, but I waited too long to purchase it. Now the only option is to get the Obsidian 2, which is WAAAY overpriced. For the price they want for the Obsidian 2, you might as well save like $80 extra dollars and get a Vitrix pro. PS5 has brought about a dark age for the arcade stick community
tell me about it. last time i bought a stick was in 2015 and there were tons of options. now it's just a bunch of mid overpriced sticks and Hori isnt even making stuff worth buying anymore. very disappointing.
Etsy is your best bet. There was a shop out of Texas that had an Etsy page that sold arcade stick panels made of resin for almost any arcade stick. Don't know if the page is still up though. It's been about 3 years since the last bought something from them.
i literally picked this up for a decent price ( in my opinion). i been using the SxT TE Pro stick for a good 6-7yrs now and had a great time using it. but Somehow as soon as I Started using this Stick today. I already could tell that I was going to love it. it looks nice and it just feels so much premium compared to my SxT and Tastunoko vs capcom Stick
Yeah I'm not gonna lie I agree. When I first got this stick it was perfect to me. Good weight, enough room on top for any hand size and everything was really crisp. It's definitely my go to.
@@UndeadBiteFGC91 I changed the LEDs and I still have the same problem, don't you know of a way to increase the brightness of the LEDs? The problem is that this is how the fightstick is configured.
Tbh I want to. It looks really nice. But it also looks a little fragile so I'm interested in seeing one in person. I'm also interested in the Mad catz TE3.
@oftheabyss1991 I'm trying to decide between the Obsidian 2 and the Victrix Pro FS as my first arcade stick. Just waiting for the Obsidian 2 review before I pull the trigger
@@PharoahsKingdom I've had the victrix pro fs before and I have to say it's pretty damn good. if I had to choose between the two I'd say that the OB2 might have to have to pretty cool features to beat the Victrix.
I got it from Amazon. Tbh I wouldn't buy one from Amazon now cause they are crazy expensive. Almost $300 for a stick is insane. I'd say arcade shock. I haven't bought from them before but as far as I've seen they have it at the lowest price of $119.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing just because want to get one cheaper, I did research of people getting it mostly from Amazon while others don’t even mention buying it from Qanba though there are reviews of people getting it from there other than Amazon.
Yes. Anything that says "official license product" with the playstation logo will work on PS5. I use mad catz TE2+, Razer Evo panthera and Hori rap 4 kai to play Street Fighter 6.

I have the qanba pearl but I see that one LED has more intensity than the other, I don't know if it's just mine
Not really sure to be honest. I've had both at the same time and they seem the same to me.

You buying the Obsidian 2?

@@UndeadBiteFGC91 So what happened to your Victrix?
@PharaohsKingdom I dropped it at locals and it stopped working 🫤 I'm currently using my Razer Panthera evo/mad catz TE2+.
I always wanted to ask this but where did you buy the obsidian from? Was it from Amazon or Qanba it’s self? Cuz the prizes are sometimes different.

Does it work on the ps5??????
Yes. Anything that says "official license product" with the playstation logo will work on PS5. I use mad catz TE2+, Razer Evo panthera and Hori rap 4 kai to play Street Fighter 6.
And ps5?
It's works on ps5. Anything that has the playstation logo on it saying official license product on it will work on ps5.
too bad it’s discontinued and the obsidian 2 is worse
