Thanks to pointed family complaints over the noise of my heated KOF XIII bouts late at night, I just ordered:

http://www.focusattack.com/buttons/sanwa/30mm/obsfs-30-pushbutton/

Sanwa silent stick and buttons

Have folks had any luck with these? The fam will get better sleep, but hope my game doesn't slip trying to hit corner directions on the stick T_T

There's a new silent HRAP, but figured try the $70 commitment over the $300 one since I already have the v4...

It's not a p360. You'll still feel corners, it's just quieter.

Any thoughts on the potential of the Legacy Game Controller Adapter for the Xbox One in terms of arcade stick modding?

Got a weird situation here I wanted throw out there in the hopes that someone might have an idea as to what is going on.

So a few years ago I picked up a custom arcade stick for Xbox 360. It uses a USB A-B cable with a Neutrik NAUSB-W A/B USB Feed-Through. For the longest time all was well until one day it wouldn't sync up with my 360 anymore.

I fished it out of storage a few days ago and have been using it on PC with no issues...that is until yesterday. For some reason the controller no longer syncs when plugged into USB 2.0, but it does work when plugged into a USB 3.0 port. When I plug the stick into a USB 2.0 port and watch the PCB, the 4 lights around the guide button light up for a split second the instant the stick plugs in, but that's it. No response after that. The weird thing is it used to work just fine with USB 2.0. In fact it was working for a good while yesterday.

The same thing happens when plugging the stick into my 360. 4 green lights around guide flash for a second then all goes dark.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance :)

Is the Hori real arcade pro 4 kai a good stick? Thinking of picking one up either sometime this year or next. Will likely check out the fight commander 4 pad in the meantime cause playing DoA5 with the DS4 hurts my hands >.>

I wasn't sure if I liked the body at first, but it grew on me and now I quite like it. The stick and buttons are okay, but I'll probably try replacing them with Sanwa parts soon.

Speaking of which, does anyone know if I should get this for my HORI RAP 4 Kai? I have no experience in stick modding. http://www.amazon.com/JLF-TP-8YT-SK-Handle-Joystick-Adjustable-Tournament-Compatible/dp/B004CZBWF6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1440656260&sr=8-3&keywords=sanwa+stick

That's pretty much what you need, but I'd get it from Focus Attack. http://www.focusattack.com/sanwa-jlf-tp-8yt-joystick/

It's cheaper on FA and comes with a mounting plate.

Updated a couple of my arcade sticks.

OG-TE-PS4-Edition.png


Much love for the OG TE stick. Always my go to stick. Big ups! Added a PS4 Dualshock 4 PCB and silent pads for the Sanwa buttons.



BAPE-x-FINKLE-PS4-STICK-TL.png



Bape x Finkle stainless. LS-40 with silent pads on the Seimitsu buttons. PS4 Dualshock 4 PCB and added a chat compatible headphone port.

Ordered the hori fight commander 4 for the ps4 last night. Curious how it stacks up against my trusty sega saturn pad. Worst case I gut it and throw it in my TE. I just have always felt I'm better on pad. Well my reactions are much quicker anyway.

How much would two Hori RAP4 VLX PS3/PS4 sticks go for on the second hand market? One still sealed, one demoed for 30 minutes and still like new mint? I love them but I just got laid off today and would rather have the cash for now.

Since they're still on sale for 300 new w/ shipping, less than that.

Let me know what you're thinking. I might be willing to take one off your hands.

Looking to get into Street Fighter V and want an arcade stick for PS4, seems the 2 within my price range are the Hori BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Extend stick ($AU170+shipping) and Hori Real Arcade Pro V ($AU182+shipping).

Tried looking for some reviews but all I could find on the Blazblue were unboxing videos with terrible music.

Any suggestions as to which I should go for?

There is still a lot to do but my holidays ends this week so not much time for this project left, I'll tinker it here and there, still have not made a backplate lol, and the internals are still in jumbles and I might replace the speaker, but overall I really enjoyed making it and I wholly recommend anyone going for it to have a go.

Finally took the time to mess some more with my stick art. Switched the heroes and villain's location, reduced the height and elongated the villain side, and added a new character. I also raised the gradient midpoint. What do you guys think now?

I think I'll switch the location of the elemental feline bros. Also not sure about the middle part. Any tips or ideas?

Tried to make it look like a Super Famicom controller, turned out alright. Applied the spray in a low temp environment so its rubbing off a bit. Painted the original Sanwa button housings gray but even though I masked the opening it still ended up messing with the sensitivity of the buttons. Posted this on a reddit thread so might as well post it here too. Apologies for the crappy camera.

Just got my undamned USB adapters so I can use my TE2 sticks on my supergun. Can finally use some super nice sticks to play all my arcade pcbs.

Fightpad seems very fully featured. Makes sense that they don't want it to be pigeonholed as ONLY useful for fighters and 2D stuff.

Fightstick Alpha looks neat! Probably reasonably priced, I just hope the internals aren't all cheap and/or hardwired stuff.
