Did some cursory digging after thinking of VR-style controllers being more optimal for a one hand setup: Azeron Cyro, FragFX Fragchuck. Not really made for FGs but might work in general.
While it depends on personal preference, stickless controllers like the ones depicted in the video give you more flexibility, which may lead to more wins (and more fun)!
@@sakifahmed2196 You're better off replacing them with Sanwa or other name-brand buttons (Seimitsu, Qanba, Crown/Samducksa, etc.) which can be found in lots of places. In the US, try Focus Attack, Paradise Arcade, or ArcadeShock.
I've been using mine at local VSav tournaments but check with your tournament rules. You can disable the extra buttons either in software or by physically removing them if nothing else.
The motherboard PCB is different from the F500 elite. The F500 V2 offers 4 2-pin sockets for up, down, left, and right inputs AND a 5-pin pin socket for PCB equipped levers ( Sanwa JLF/JLX and some Seimitsus). You will NOT need to solder if you buy a 5-pin lever cable. The F500 Elite offers only a 5-pin socket.
hey. just got a doubt about arcade sticks. you are saying that the yellow color is 4 in 1 ? and the blue is 7 in 1. so what that actually means? so the yellow one has only 4 directions and blue one has 7 directions? is it like that?
Good video. I was considering ordering it but the fact the design was changing and also there wasn’t any idea of stick weight. If you play with a stick on your lap then it’s easier if the stick is wider and heavy; this looks like it might tip down towards you when playing on your lap as it doesn’t look that heavy.
I will say that I am successfully (well, to the limits of my capability) using this in Street Fighter 6. I can definitely hit DPs and supers, you just need to be firm in your movements. But yeah, the diagonal issue has bit me from time to time.
To be fair, a lot of GP2040-CE based products (Haute42, Sonicon Titanstrike) have this feature as well. The display on this is larger and nicer though, and I'm wondering where it was sourced from.
@@fightROSHANfight Oh, I know...at the time a co-worker of my spouse went to Japan and he got us a JPN launch unit which we still have (not used for testing in the video, though!).
It’s not a display (on the arcade stick). It’s a window so one can see the display on a Dreamcast VMUs, which were its default memory cards that also had a screen and buttons and d-pad to play simplistic Tamagotchi-like mini-games, or show things like in-game status. The Dreamcast and VMU launched in 1998 in Japan. So yea, it’s beyond ahead of its time.
I would definitely recommend using the firmware it comes with, but if you want to change it you can put the box into bootsel mode by holding start while plugging it in to your PC
Dope review, i puchased the pc/ps3 version because thats what i could afford. I dont have a pc i have a ps4, i ordered a raspberry pi pico zero delay usb board encoder board but thats only arriving in 2weeks, im new to this and is it possible to swop boards?
Typically they're synonymous, but to be technical: * GP2040-CE is the software that's installed. * The Pico is the hardware it's installed on. (It can be used for much more than GP2040-CE, of course)
@@yusufercen7328 "Pico fighting boards" will generally be running GP2040-CE. Think of it this way: You may have an Intel or AMD processor (hardware), but you run Windows (software) on top of it. I recommend the newest Advanced Breakout Board by TheTrain (5.6 right now), at least if you have a Brook-sized mount in your build.
