- What good is an arcade stick if you never bring it anywhere? The SnackBox Micro is here to solve just that...
Thanks to Junkfood Custom Arcades for providing the controller for this video. All opinions expressed in the video are my own. I’ve used the YT “paid promotion” overlay for transparency but I was not paid monetarily to make the video.

Great review! The Micro is one of my favourite arcade controllers.
Loved your comparison vid, sir!

13:20 i imagine some school peeps could just use their school binder or notebook if they play during breaks or something
Old school trapper keepers were so big they could probably house 7 Snackboxes
13:12 the unintentional Tsukihime rep is very much appreciated
I'm thinking like a mad lad: a custom wrist strap that lets you carry this thing on one arm and you can possibly wear the straps on both arms to let you play with this thing while standing. Just in case you get into an argument in a Costco parking lot that calls for a pickup game of Melty.
so like a duel disk
Junkfood will have injection molded buttons that are smooth texture. But they don't appear to be up on their store yet.
The next batch is going out with them and then they'll be in the store, from what I understand.
@@aarono8979 So if you order for one of the June or later shipping dates you'll get the newbuttons?
I’ve ordered a snackbox micro a month ago scheduled to ship out on the 20 of June. Maybe possible for the new orders to include the new injection molded buttons?
@@j2thedissle304 Yes, in their discord they’ve mentioned the May batch and onward should include the injection molded key caps.
This video unlocked a hidden memory from within me, apparently. I instantly recognized it as a parody of the original macbook air ad and it’s been years since I saw it.
I wasn't sold because I thought the size would be uncomfortable over time but you convinced me. Great content and review as always
update? does it get umcomfortable
I got mine! It’s my first all button box and I love it to death! The learning curve isn’t that hard but there IS a learning curve don’t expect to be doing 50% damage combos out the box lol it’s definitely going to be my main controller for fighting games. Can’t wait to try it on strive!
Hi dear can you please test it if it works on ps5
@@imohbalu it works for PS4 games on the PS5 but not on PS5 games at the moment.
@@waltzfatali6738 correct! That’s why I’ll be getting the ps4 version of strive and still get the ps5
@@aaagaming10 why not wait mybe in the next month there could be an update for Ps4 & ps5
@@imohbalu idk if you remember back when the ps4 got external drive support, but that took a hot minute, so its safer to assume that'll be the case with the 5, also its backwards compatible, so really no harm in just buying the last gen version for probably 10 bucks less lol
I have been watching you for months now and I really like your videos! So much that I ordered a snack box Micro for myself! I was always the only one out of my friends that played fighting games (since 92/93 I was 4/5 wasting money on arcades because that was what everyone was doing back then) first game ever was street fighter 2 and later kof! I haven’t played fighting games for almost 15 years now. But when I found your channel it gave me an itch. And now a days people can connect through the internet. I am really Loki g forward to play kof xv. Thanks for all the good content!
I'm definitely saving up for one of these, being able to fit it into my school backpack is what got me, hitbox is just way too big
Bro hitbox isn't even that big lmfao
Yeah the original is slim but not like the m press and snackbox but its still slim and is not even that big is it big but not as big as you think but thats just my opinion man you can buy which ever hitbox style you want nobody is stopping you ok just pick something that you will enjoy and like and have fun with.
What's nice is the hitbox comes with it's own bag, and it's actually pretty slim tbh. I personally want something a little sturdier cause i have rowdy dogs in the house. This controller seems fantastic tho. Perfect thing to toss in your bag and go to a friends house with.
Bruh fr, my smashbox is lovely but the think weights 50 pounds lol
@@laneuwu1660 the smashbox is huge. Idk if the smashbox comes with one, but the hitbox has it's own bag
Hotswap keys have finally hit arcade sticks. What a time to be alive.
you are pretty late if you think this is new.
@@livanbard Are there any other arcade sticks with hotswap keyboard switch sockets aside from this and the MPress?
I actually wanted to know if you can hotswap the keyboard switches. I might get one of these now.
I prefer the stick tbh
This mad man is playing handheld buttonbox. Absolutely ridiculous. I love it ❤️
If keyboard sounds were a girl, Nihongo would be down with her.
Lol
I wanna see someone win Evo with this and then take a bite of it
1:27 *That's what she said*
Some others have said it, but I'm keenly waiting on a SnackBox M vs the Mpress video!
Great intro, and solid/funny review as always!!
this controller makes me want to get back into fighting games
@techypathshalescam
i applaud the intro lol macbook advert parody
20 years ago when I discovered mame on pc, I didn’t have a controller so I learned to play street fighter ii with the keyboard (and pretty well as well). Everyone thought I was mad. 20 years later, turns out I was just ahead of the curve! This thing is wicked!
Same here! My cousin and I didn't have access to controllers during that time. I have lost my hard core keyboard skills because a controller is more comfortable, but you do what you can
I don't know if I'd ever use this to replace a standard joystick, but as a portable for use with my Switch I am totally on board. Two, of course.
Yeah.....you wont probably go through with this plan anyway.
the best part of this controller is the lights track what you press and slowly fades thats epic
Dude what the flip?!?! I'm crazy jealous of that ice cream sandwich.
Just gonna point out that the Yoga Float position is absolutely optimal
Concave / Convex buttons really is a matter of perspective and your age. When I was playing fighting games back in the day (Street Fighter 2 days) all the arcade buttons on cabinets in the USA were concave. Convex buttons is a Japanese thing. It doesn't make a huge difference.
I’m Switching from pad and I almost bought this, but ended up just going with hitbox cause of the ability to customize it if I wanted too. I still plan eventually buying the Micro down the road though cause it’s easy to travel with and how much of a beating it can take. I would of bought both If I could, but I just couldn’t justify dropping $400 on controllers all at once lol
How was the change from pad to leverless for you? I'm thinking of switching from pad to it as well but I'm afraid of having to relearn how to play and rebuilding my muscle memory lol if it only takes a few weeks to readjust then that might not be that bad
These things are still sold out and they are only available in October according to the site ;-; wish I could have gotten one of these smol babies
I kinda drooled in my mouth a bit when you tapped the buttons that is a seeeexy click!!!!
not my bag control wise but I can always admire some good button feedback.
I am not sure, but I think the buttons might be concave. Very subtly concave even. Not sure. Could be. Possibly. You should mention it.
OOPS I can’t believe I forgot to mention that the buttons are concave! Hehe
He mentions it at 10:12 haha
@@JohkeGaming *woosh*
That's actually not bad.
Has it's own pcb for the controls.
A Brook board built in and very good looking.
200 dollars isnt so bad for this
I've been wanting to learn hitbox for a while now, this one looks really nice. The only thing bothering me is those tiny little buttons. Like he mentioned, going to take a toll on your finger if you reset in training mode over and over.
New (better) versions of those are now shipping in our store.
This looks seriously good for Tetris
Bought my snack box,kinda sad it got delayed but this helps a lot for what to expect!
the ONLY arcade controller that stops manspreading
that should be a feature listed on the box and i should be hired on the marketing team
Just bought one of these to celebrate a new job. Just got some art for it which honestly makes me way happier than it should.
I want one. Looks like it’d be perfect to take with me when I go out of town with my Switch, or to take to locals when they start to reopen.
Indeed, the best arcade stick is the friends you made along the way.
...................is that a wedding ring?
If they release a pre-installed clicky (mx blue style) version of this, I'm going to start questioning if my FBI agent has been telling them everything I've ever wanted in an arcade stick.
LMAO, you might beat him in tekken but they're going to beat you irl XD
These look fun and all by I can't comprehend why these controllers are so pricy, considering a good keyboard is only a small fraction of the price.
I got a regular snackbox V2 from them and it's quality. I'll probably pick up the micro next year.
If I hadn't build my own hitbox from AllFightSticks I would definitely look into getting this...come to think of it I still may...lol.
Damn... I need this. As a hitbox player I would love one.
What would you say are pros and cons? I’m thinking about Hitbox but this mini also has intrigued me but Im not sure which would be worth my money..
@@zonk834 im not much of a hitbox player but I have tried it more than once. The immediate pros of buttonboxes are the ability for precise inputs, simultaneous directional inputs, and simpler directional inputs. I haven't experienced anything negative to be considered a con for buttonbox controllers but I've only tried them for a little less than a month. I do have to say though, that the prices are a bit too high for what they are worth. The controller showcased in the vid is about $200 not including tax, but it has customization options. They still last long but I wouldn't want to spend that type of money
This looks awesome, it has a lot of nice features and having a portable controller that can be use in both PS4 pc and switch is definitely a plus for me
This thing makes me want to learn to use a hitbox.
agree with all your points honestly, this controller is genuinely a godsend
like to be completely fair i havent had any other arcade controllers but ive got really bad arthritis and whatnot that's really kinda stopped me from playing fighting games for a good while because of playing on pad usually making it worse yada yada ya anyways the snack box micro has just helped out so much
plus it accommodates for all the weird positions i have to sit in like you showed off there (like i know you were joking around but i do pretty much all of the ones you did barring "i wish i were a pad player" lmao)
also it's so thin that i can keep playing even when my cat decides he's gotta sit on my hands so thats always a bonus
This is just making me more excited for mine to finally ship this week
`I love this controller. This was my first button box controller. I got this controller out of a whim, but it does everything I could ever want. the ONLY gripe I have with the controller is those top bottoms. I wanted to learn Killer Instinct and I honestly dropped it just because you have to press start and share together but pressing those buttons together is a pain and a bit inconsistent sometimes. I know they are actually going to change those buttons, so that's great. Other than that gripe I say this controller a great controller if you're in the market as it is more than just a gimmick.
u should def try the 8bitdo arcade stick it has hotswappable everything and is only 90 bucks found out about it today and losin my mind over how nice it seems
Bit laggy
It's not all that swappable
if by hot swappable you mean soldering the 5-pin joystick cable to the PCB, then ok.
Who hotswaps arcade parts? Wtf
Better title: "The Stick You'll never forget THAT IS ACTUALLY NOT A STICK"
Considering my wrist problems it might be worth investing in this
Would totally get one if I were to switch out of joystick
Love how he sneaked in the tsukihime/melty blood issue of type moon magazine in there
That switch sounds meaty for a small boy like that
I just got to test out the micro and I have to say it is now my stickless controller of choice. I have the OG hitbox, and I think it is great, but It is really only ergonomic if you can play with your hands suspended over the buttons. I have always needed to rest my wrists, and that feels like it has definitely done some damage over extended use with the height of the OG Hitbox. As you mentioned in this review, because this controller is so low profile, I can comfortably rest my wrists on my legs and play on this controller without discomfort.
I'd definitely recommend this to people looking for a stickless controller simply for that reason alone. If you have no problem playing with your hands elevated than the OG Hitbox is still a great choice, but I'll almost certainly be selling mine now.
i just got one for myself cant wait to test this out
legit just came to this video cuz i saw someone else using and i wanted to hear how clicky it was, but i was pleasantly surprised with a very in depth review, even talking about the ergonomics of the controller!
that thing looks great
This is about the size of a switch it seems to be. This also seems way cheaper than a regular hitbox so that’s awesome
They're almost the exact same price...?
Can you do the slide half circle with those buttons?
He can but it’s not very comfortable. It’s a struggle. Can’t even do infinite combos with it.
@@o2ksumbody ah okay than I‘ll buy the mpress✌️
I lost my hori arcade stick in a move, which pissed me off. I'd been considering getting a button box since I've played a lot of fighting games on keyboards when I was younger, so it feels natural to me. So this looks like a good option for the price range.
What Kind of hori?
@@jico5147 nothing too expensive (I have a rule of dont own anything I'm not prepared to discard at a moments notice), just a Hayabusa i got from a gamestop. Liked the color scheme though.
All I need to this be perfect is the option with a longer board and option to spread the move and attacks buttons a bit (they have it on another hitbox). And ps5 support, so I'll wait anyway, but looking for one in near future 100%
Maybe this video should be called, Snack Box Micro, The stick you have to wait months for.
Oh sweet! You got one too! :D
200 dollars for a bunch of buttons.....Give me a break please.
>Type-Moon magazine
My man!
Love the reviews as always and honestly probably going to end up nabbing this or the mPress since they both feature what I'm looking for. Probably will go for this just because of the size.
Also lol @ 20:11 it gave me a good laugh but my hands were crying.
Video was enough to get me to order one for me, thanks for going over it in such detail!
This looks like a funny controller, time to learn orthodox just for this
Nuff said, I’m getting it.
That is VERY slick looking!
Honestly wish there was a version that sounds like my custom keyboared
I know its made for fighting games but I wanna know if you can do some rhythm games on this stuff too
Yes. Check our twitter feed
Judging by that Type Moon Ace magazine, I suppose we should expect some Melty Blood Type Lumina gameplay when it drops.
Looks super interesting. Love the led. Gives it personality
9:05 men's pants moment
almost perfect. wish there wasn't such large gaps between the buttons, so we could do slide maneuvers across the tops.
Great video! Junkfood will have injection molded buttons in soon. The new buttons replace all of the option buttons as well so they will feel nicer to press the little ones on top. They are all being made in PBT so it will also lower the sound profile a bit like on keyboard keycaps and the best part they will have a color options!
COLORS WOO! This is all superbly exciting news!
That intro was perfect lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for showing off this item the led light feature looks great. It looks confusing to use I do feel the new experience is needed today so thanks again.
Been thinking of getting a button only controller gonna have to give this one a look.
How do circle motions work on this layout?
Perfect for a desk, horrible for a lap.
This thing is awesome but how the hell is it $200? Feels like this should be a really cool affordable option for a fight stick.
Wow, this looks pretty neat. I'm actually thinking of getting one.
Wow that'd 200 bucks? I was expecting 400
now this is the controller i need
Hot damn! The extreme tininess of this thing really makes me wonder if my concerns about sticks slipping around on my legs will be a thing of the past.
Also, how would you compare the texture of these buttons to the texture of Hori Hayabusa buttons?
I like the Apple ad reference at the beggining
Nice intro, BTW that's a huge ice-cream sandwich.
Woo. This might work brilliantly for DJMAX 😀
thank you so much for this video! it made me pick one of these up and i absolutely adore it!
2:38 when your arcade stick is a comedian.
Yes!! I ordered one of these after your MPress video since the MPress was sold out lol. But this is gonna sell out now haha
i guess you can easily 3d print new key caps and make whatever design you want, rough, smooth, tall, low, whatever you can imagine.
MacBook Air vibes with the envelope
Great review. Big fan of your channel too. Keep it up!
Saw one two weeks ago in our locals, tested it and placed my order immediately once I got back home. Im a 100% hitbox players since 2019.
That’s great to hear! I really hope more people get to try them at locals soon
can’t wait for the mpress comparison as well great video!!
