This has to be the most inacessible genre I've ever seen.

We already had this thread
You can get sticks for $60 and you don't need one to be competitive, it's all personal preference and EVO has been won with PSX pads before

This is like posting a $300,000 luxury car and saying "it's so expensive to get from point A to point B :((((("

Cheapest stick is a HORI Real Arcade Pro 4. It retails for 150. Sometimes you can get one for 100-125 usd. There is a qanba crystal which retails for about the same, but those are sold mostly online and shipping is about 20 dollars. also the pic in OP's post is a Vewlix controller, which is about a foot long and about 8 inches wide? But it is supposed to mimic the size of an actual arcade cab controller.

No it isn't. There are tons of cheaper ones out there, and they can be upgraded too.

You don't have to, a normal dualshock 3/4 or even keyboard on PC are great too, its a matter of preference.

for $300 you can buy a better stick than that hori. One with actual sanwa parts instead of hayabusa/kuro sticky shit that hori came up with.

sanwa sucks

seimitsu was always japanese arcade standard for every game other than virtua fighter

then madcatz and viral marketers on SRK's tech talk section shilled sanwa and made it into a meme, even though before that every japanese cab used SEIMITSU parts and it was standard for sf2, sf3, KoF, and more.

sanwa sticks are so fucking floppy it's unbearable, you got meme'd on.

Those mini's don't count because they don't use real arcade parts. Those sticks use membrane buttons and maybe if you are lucky switch based stick. But don't count on it. Also if you buy one of those, you will have to get one of 150 dollar sticks. I'm sorry you can't be cheap with a stick. There is a giant difference. Also don't give me that shit where you say you can just upgrade one of those cheaper sticks, because you are really just buying a case. Because NONE of those parts are reusable, cept maybe the controller board.

I tried an LS-32 and it felt like total ass. super loose deadzone, felt really squishy, and super scratchy against the restrictor. It just felt like a cheap product, I swapped back to Sanwa after a few weeks.

Strawman harder. You only have to glance against the gate to feel the roughness, and whether or not you should be touching the gate often has nothing to do with it making the stick feel cheap.

A good amount of the newer fighting games have an option to detect "Legacy controllers" or whatever, so something like a Qanba Q1 works in SFV on PS4, for instance. Just google the stick you want, and if it's compatible with the games you want.

You do get what you pay for but you also may not know you like stick. With anything new, you should always either try it or buy a cheaper version to try rather than dropping tons on a gamble. Also, many sticks can be modded easily so you can upgrade it with better parts if you like it.
