Gonna be 40yrs old this year and I've been a member of the fgc since the sfII arcade days. I grew up NYC so the arcade scene is where my heart's at. I got into being a stick player since the Saturn days and I haven't looked back....but since last year I got hard into stick culture as far as modding and customizing. Little did I know how deep the rabbit hole goes. I'm a novice when it comes to modding....but I love it.
Whenever I get a new console... I buy a new stick for it.
Same here. I love fighters, shmups and beat em ups. Pretty much all the arcade genres and have to play on stick. I miss the days of Mad Ctaz. They were kick ass with their stuff. I'm currently on a Hori and love Hori too.
you are a legend dude...definitely one of the few that got me to love fighting games even though I'm not the best or nowhere near it fighting games will always be in my top 3 genres...keep doing you man and good luck with your future projects.
yo same
I just got a MayFlash F300, love it! It's my first arcade stick, always used controllers on fighting games for years but been wanting to learn on arcade sticks for years, finally gave in and bought one. Planning on collecting sticks for the foreseeable future!
Same Here!
i got the f500
Do u still have it and is it good
F300 is simple, and real small, but it’s fairly portable and is cheap as hell. It’s exactly what my poor ass needed lol
You should get the Hori fight stick pro.
Almost couldn't concentrate because of the nostalgic Chrono Trigger music lol
@Luis Dante Oh shit! For me it only took about 100,000 hours! It really works!!
good music choice
Fucking best vgm of all time!
Check out the extended version that was made for Chrono Resurrection, the new arrangement for Chrono Cinematica, or the Chrono Trigger metal medley by Power Glove.

I got the Hitbox, the CrossUp, the Vewlix, the Obsidian, the Victrix, and the MAS of those that you showed. Plenty of others too of course because im one of those collector-freaks and love varying up how I play between different layouts and feels of the bunch that I own, although my go-to for playing on my big tv is the Vewlix and my go-to for sitting at my gaming monitor setup is the Victrix. Great vid.
Why you sitting here typing a long ass comment when you could be making videos showcasing these gems to the community
I kinda lucked grabbing a 8 button MAS stick on a whim at a garage sale maybe 4 months for only $20 not knowing what exactly it was. Needless to say, after researching it's astounding history I will be restoring it to it's former glory and probably keep for my personal collection.
You still carry your first stick with you, man. That's real rad.
He has 2. There isnt a feel of a that psrticulsr stick anymore. They dont make them yipes has his aswell.
I've been using the Victrix for a little under 2 years now. My palms get so sweaty, I made a "white hot palm" imprint on the aircraft aluminum coating. Lol.
Does Victrix come with a detachable USB cable?
That last legend stick though.. man they all look amazing, but that one has a hellavu a story i bet
I only have six sticks personally but my favourite is MadCatz SF x Tekken Arcade Fightstick V.S. Edition (PS3/360). Massive area for your hands, amazing build-quality and a real heavyweight, which I love. Feels like something ripped from a real arcade cab
Ive been using this stick since it came out, thought I was the only one who loved it lol
JWong - ‘It’s never over... till Daigo Parry’
Love the chrono trigger background song, really compliments each piece, good call Justin.
The virtux ones looks so cool! 400 bucks though gotta start saving up. :/
What I'll say about the Victrix and other heavy box sticks is that before you buy one make sure you understand what your getting.
Most heavy sticks are anywhere from 16-18 inches wide, weigh around 10-13lbs, and are very tall on your lap.
That makes them really unfortunate for travel and storage. However the added weight and size makes them incredibly comfortable for long sessions or labbing.
The Victrix also only comes in 4-5 pre-lazer engraved SF designs (All but a couple designs sold out) or a grey non engraved.
The biggest thing is to consider the parts. The Vixtrix also comes with Sanwa buttons and a detachable JLF stick. Which cost less than 100$ in total.
The actual parts you use to play are pretty much the same ones you find in everything so really ask yourself if this is worth 400$ just for a pretty stick.
Damn, didn’t know you were a fellow member of the Cross Up Alpha gang. Nice! That put a smile on my face.
I’m making the transition from controller to stick so this video is mad helpful! Thanks so much!!
That etokki is so nice. I would need something heavy as well but I'm so used to controllers. Honestly my street fighter game is out dated and full of flaws. I have a lot of work to do to get back in shape. This was dope though Justin.
Hey awesome collection of fight sticks Justin and great reviews dude. I actually still own the Capcom-style MAS stick for ps2 from AS from a while back.
The theme on your VLX Diamond is taken from the Taito VEWLIX Diamond cabinet. It has the same color theme as on yours.
All different VEWLIX models are
F (white sides, black metal parts)
L (All black)
C (Capcom cabinet, red sides, black metal parts)
D (diamond which has the same colors as on your stick)
DB (Diamond Black. Black everywhere except the wrist rest has a similar metallic look as the regular Diamond)
There are VLX arcade stick versions of the F and D for PS3+PC and C and L for PS3+PS4+PC
Loving the Chrono Trigger bg music in this one!
This was a cool video. I have one stick and I use a Brook Converter and it works great. I was thinking of getting another stick so I can have one for both XB and PS but I ended up sticking with the Brook Converter because it hasn't given me any problems and works pretty good.
Hori RAP2 (Blue & Gray SE Model) for PS2 and Razer Panthera SFV edition for PS4 are my all time favorite sticks.
Had a MAS purchased from arcade shock back in 2011. Came broken, they had me send back for repairs, never got it back. They also never refunded my money. Ignored all attempts to contact as well.
I just have a Hori RAP 4. I ended up switching out the Hayabusa stick and buttons for Sanwa -- not because they were bad or anything, I just ended up liking the feel of the Sanwa parts better. I also went with an octo-gate instead of the standard square one.
Octogates are GODLIKE! I HATE square gates! One day maybe I’ll adapt 🤮 I’m trying!
The MAS stick is easy to replicate if you can't find one. All it is are pieces of 3/4 in MDF which you can just size and cut, drill holes for panel, put it together and install a brook board.
You cant recreate the joystick that comes with them tho, i don't think they exist anymore but i could be wrong. I just bought mine for super cheap a couple weeks ago tho, will never use another stick if i have the option to use my MAS.
@@justincredible1593 They still exist and are still being manufactured. They are Industry Lorenzo (IL joystick) Every arcade part supplier sells them.
FGC-Linux word? Would you happen to know which buttons were originally used too? Mine could use a swap and I want to keep it as original as possible.
@@justincredible1593 Same brand IL they make buttons too. They are also the original manufacturer of all the American arcade parts back in the day. You can find them at focus attack.com and paradise arcade.com
You’re such a brilliant player. Been following your career for years. Big fan, Justin. Really big fan.
I have a number of sticks myself. Some are customized sticks, others are straight MadCatz sticks from the PS3/360 era. Just got the EGO and I do like it, even though you have to plug in a controller from your respective system to use it. But being able to use it on any system makes it worth that caveat to me. Thinking of modding it further, but I don’t know to what extent.
Just a question… What are your thoughts on HAPP joystick/buttons and American style layout? I really like it a lot. It’s neck and neck with my Seimitsu stick/Sanwa buttons in the Japanese layout. I just like to have variety.
Now following. Thanks for the great video. Some interesting sticks to look at in the future.
Oh yeah, LOVE the Chrono Trigger music.
I used Madcatz SF4 TE1 that I got wayback 2011 for MVC3/UMVC3 and I still use it today via PS3 MVC2 Online
Your awesome man love your streams and vids you inspire me in gaming man I hope I still see you playing games for another decade
I own the PS2 Tekken 4 HORI Arcade Stick and the PS5 SF6 HORI Arcade Stick Alpha. I'm going to buy the HORI Fighting Edge if possible and the etokki looks solid too, thanks! i
The HORI VLX Diamond! One of my favorites in my collection.
Efff you Wong. Your hitbox video got me to buy one XD
Gatta get some affiliate links or something going dude. You’ve been a great spokesperson for a lot of gear for me over the year (because I regard your opinion highly and think you’re a reputable person with integrity).
You should be getting some kickback XD
Great vid man!!! Thanks for sharing!!! Nice to see you got the Bison Victrix as well!!!
A lot of these sticks look awesome.
I wonder if Justin modifies his fightsticks at all, like swapping the buttons, gate, springs, or what not.
Or whether he just uses them stock.
DKC2 music for the end!!!! Nice!!!
currently trying to buy my first stick, and i’m doing a lot of research for like the best possible stick i can buy. This video though, this video made me realize, Just buy a stick. find one you like and just buy it
Good gosh.
The Vewlix really looks like it was pulled from an arcade cabinet. Still my favorite stick of all time, outside the sick custom Qbee joystick
Jesus Christ.. i wish i could still buy a mas stick. Love how the buttons are aligned like in the arcades. And the bat top looks springy as hell too. Is there anything remotely like that anymore?
Build one with HAPP or Lorenzo parts + a Brook ufb 👍. HAPP are the OG, USA arcade parts. I've heard that Lorenzos are better, but never tried them.
@@TexasHollowEarth So my only hope is build it myself? Great, I suck at building things. Appreciate the heads up.
My set up. Razer Panthera with a black metal nori layout panel, qanba gravity buttons, ex link groove, sanwa jlf otto V5 mod with square gate. Basically end game, extremely portable, and noir is so much better and ergonomic than viewlex.
Sick setup bro
i have the Razer Atrox too... but this Etoki Omni is awesome !!!
i was debating on getting an etokki, now i'm sold
Love that old MAS Stick. Brings back so many memories
Thanks for the review. Thumbs up. The Etokki (7lbs.) looks nice. I don't like the sticks with the square gait. Circle gait seems to be better for pulling off 360/720 moves. I notice some sticks don't have much palm rest for long game play. Seems the manufacture could be cutting players short. I have a few old MAS Super Pro-Stick (Neo-Geo/PS2) and a old RGB monitor from MAS Systems company. They went out of business awhile back in California.
nice to see the old white te featured, still got one for the memories.
One of the best tunes from Choro Trigger. Awesome stuff.
Have you ever tried out the Hori RAP N Hayabusa?
that one is godlike, i hope he tries it
After four years and several mods with my trusty RAP 4, I finally upgraded to a RAP N last week. Loving it so far.
sndfrosteyneko - he most likely owns it
Hohoho, dropping that Chronotrigger jam there. I hear you Justin!
You really should've added Amazon affiliate links
Amazon evil
0:48 cheatbox got you too :(
Awesome sanwa is the best for fluid motions IMO.
As an ex Sanwa user, I find overall better the Korean Levers. But that's just personal preference
@@shiki494 I've never tried those! But I was talking about the green ps2 sanwa from hori. I had such fluid motions with magneto I felt like magneto lol. But it was stolen a few years back.
I legit laughed at the Sega Astro with a Viewlix layout. Whoever made that did not know what they were doing.
Big hello from honduras !!nice collection i own de victrix ryu special edition hope they make the akuma version keep it up
xD salu2 desde honduras tambien
Thanks for this vid!!! I’ve been looking for a good stick for some Virtua fighter.
Me using a PXN fightstick because I can't afford the other ones: "Interesting"
You can buy cheaper sticks and add Sanwa or Seimitsu parts later. I only own one "tournament stick (HRAP V2). The rest are upgraded cheap sticks (Madcatz Se, Qanba Q1).
I'd get a used Q1 before a PXN. That doesn't look comfortable or durable at all.
@Dale Macarena Q1 is a great platform for upgrades. It's cheaper and looks less like a toy.
@Dale Macarena PS4 is backwards comptatible with older arcade sticks. So is PS5. Qanba also makes sticks that are compatible with the Xbox line.
For more money you can have a stick that works with PS, Xbox, and PC but, you can mod a Q1 to do that too.
I feel you I just got one in the mail lol.
Hey, do you need to replace any parts? Like hexadecimal slot for stick?
Never had a stick and would love to get away from my pad and learn.
Justin with the fire music on the intro.
Great to get a review on joysticks from a legend 👍
This was an awesome video to watch, I’m trying to get into buying a stick myself
I'm one of the few lucky people who has the madcatz tes+, fightstick is very hard to get because of how much people charge it nowadays for those who aren't aware, it's an original not to mention a Classic. I kind you not look it up and see lmao it's rediculous for how much there charging for it, butespecially since it don't work on PC. But like I said it's a classic and it won't be long till it won't be available anymore.
Thank you, I was wondering if there were any sticks that have the movement buttons on the right side instead of the left? The my box looked great but I'd need to flip it
Southpaw mix box is available on their website
@@northdakotabeast1547 Thanks!
@@shinjoni :)
Corridors of time is my alarm tone!!!
What's a feature you would like to see added to sticks for next-gen consoles? (PS5 & Xbox Series X/S)
Do you prefer a heavier or lighter tension on your joystick.
that dreamcast stick looks the coolest
I liked the end there, good job.
Fucking knew the music was Chrono Trigger in a millisecond... OMG the feels!!!
RIP Mad Catz. They went bankrupt in 2017 and sold their IP to a Hong Kong Chinese company in 2018 that rebranded their own products under the name of GameSir and slapped the Mad Catz name on them which the products like the Ego Arcade Stick are terrible and are cheap pieces of crap that do not live up to the Mad Catz name. To anyone reading this, please do not make the mistake that I did and buy the Ego Arcade Stick, you will be disappointed.
this is very important to know , thanks . Sometimes we don't know which arcade sticks are still being manufactured or not.
I’m getting the mayflash 500 elite tomorrow!! And I’m down to fight ANYONE OF YOU. step up. Well, maybe with pad for a while .. heh
But stoked to be using it for fightcade and Xbox series X.
Do you typically use stock jlf's?
That og Mas stick is DOPE! That’s what I need maybe 😝
i want that mixbox bad... i would map crouch to the "W" key though, it feels more comfy that way on keyboard i feel like
Lets goo justiiiiin, amazing video dude, could you make a video on 3rdstrike defending mechanics and basic OS plss
I kinda like the logic 3 joysticks I know they are a cheaper option but it’s all I could afford back then and I’m so used to them
actually jealous u got a hitbox crossup. I couldnt get in on the alpha kick starter before it sold out -_-
i would buy the 8BitDo arcade stick only because of the detachable USB cable .
Although I played fighting games with pad on X360 (default 360 pad) I did end up getting a stick I 1st got was a wireless one for X360 which came with Tekken 6's collector's editin and then I got the Razer (Green) one.
In between an Etokki Omni and a Hitbox. Such a hard choice! Ahhhhhhhh
I'd love to build my own happ arcade stick. As good as the MAS stick hopefully with all same parts
I actually got a job for 2 weeks and quit so I could buy a MAS stick back in the day. It was so impossible to communicate with that dude, and I just had no idea when to expect the actual product... I ended up with X-Arcade and quickly found that there was a cool bug that made it completely unplayable with CvS2 Xbox Live. I became a pad lord until I bought the Official Sega Dreamcast Joystick and....my life was forever changed. Jwong, you messed up. I know how revolutionary the MAS was, and I know the struggle. But, a 1st party joystick of this calibur(WINK) doesn't even make the list? Come on.
EDIT: Hey, you know what? Richboy Jwong dropping 10x a Dreamcast joystick and it's just like that's pretty shiny.
Hello man, I noticed you've been using a vewlix layout for a long time besides that Etokki one. Any particular reason why you prefer Vewlix over Noir?
Got my badly homemade arcade stick shell i made in shop class and my buddy who knew how to do parts as i don’t help me on that and still own it for the ps1 stick is stiff as i had to replace it with a not so good stick i had in my closet at the time.
Are the gold buttons on the omni crown/samducksu? If so, I loooove those buttons.
I still have my hori hrap for ps3. I would love to put a retro brook board in it to play on Dreamcast
HeyJustin, Ithink people wanted to know about parts and mods etc. What lever you use/like, gate, etc.
I recently switched from my old hori rap4 hayabusa (with the buttons and stick swapped out for sanwas) to the gamo2 k28 and while I find I do a lot better on the k28 I miss the size and customizability of an actual stick. Also while I was less consistent with inputs on stick I found performing inputs on stick a lot more fun.
Come on Justin show us what we really want to see we want to see the moment 37 stick!!!
Appreciate the vid JW. You are cool af bro.
How do you feel about the Qanba Dragon? Only thing I don't like is the start buttons location. Just turn the touchpad into the start button and it's a non-issue.
Jwong mixbox or hit box? I can’t make up my mind! I’ve tried both layouts on my keyboard on gg. Wasd felt a little better
I love my qanba dragon. Best stick I've ever owned/ used
Good music choice
Was there ever a review on the crossup?
Would u ever switch to hitbox or the crossup?
Instant like for Chrono Trigger OST 👍
mIs it possible to connect the sfv joystick to a ps1? Like is there an adapter for that?
Razer atrox 360 is the best ♥
Quick question do you know anything about adapter for ps2 that I can use for my xbox one arcade stick ?
Cross up is busted especially cause I changed the analog to a WASD. Very customizable and ez to work with on PC n PS4 but it is $300
Trying to learn how to play on joystick it's rough but, im slowly getting used to it.
Stick with it, no pun intended.
Your execution will smoothen out over time, but it takes practice bro..just like going to the gym, you have to CORRECTLY be doing the movements, otherwise you won’t get gains, and can even hurt yourself
chrono trigger song intro
gr8 work bro keep uploading
Daaamn that mas stick tho haha. My first was a pelican stick for ps2 lol
