Just to be clear in case there's somehow confusion, it's multi-platform but this particular model doesn't support Xbox One or Xbox Series S/X. Apparently a separate model will be released for that.

@ChrisStriker 10 дней назад

It is sad to see that they will launch a model compatible with Xbox One and Series, when even the Mayflash F300 (The 2nd cheapest model next to the F101) is compatible with Xbox Although well, I'm curious if they will launch a model that is compatible with Xbox

@tbn548 10 дней назад

This is due to Microsoft banning any unlicensed devices on Series devices. I believe it happened about a year ago.

Hello, let s say the switch 2 is released next year, is this stick will be compatible with it? Am I gona be able to continue to play Marvel vs Capcom on the switch 2 with this or I will need to buy another stick?

You should be able to play on xbox if you hook it to your phone and use the xbox remote play (probably won't work on 360 or OG Xbox games nor dev mode)

@arsonne 8 дней назад

I've been playing fighters and traveling to tournaments for 15 years and in that entire time I've always seen mayflash sticks around I've never heard a negative word said about them. They're the real deal. They have hardly changed the look or philosophy in all that time and they're still thriving.

@xblindx 9 дней назад

Justin Wong didn’t know what Mayflash was for the longest time. It’s def entry level and for the poors (like myself haha) I was surprised to find out how reliable it was for an entry level product!

@ArkAynJoel 10 дней назад

I bought my first arcade stick this past December after doing tons of research to find the one that would be the best for me, and I excluded the previous Mayflash simply due to needing to connect another controller to it. I ended up getting a Hori Alpha (which I absolutely love), but if I were going through the same process again now, I would absolutely pick this controller up! PS5 compatibility out of the box, replaceable artwork, headphone jack with mic support, AND wireless functionality? This F700 would be such an easy purchase!

@OmegaErkz 10 дней назад

Damn, Mayflash made a better Madcatz TE. Also 150 for a Mayflash is wild. I remember thinking 100 for a hori back in the day was pricey. Inflation is wild. But this looks great. Deffo a good beginner stick.

@ChrisStriker 10 дней назад

And you haven't seen the Elite series, those already exceed $200 but they already put original Samwa parts in there But you still have cheaper models like the F300 and F500 (including the F500 Flat)

@Drovek451 10 дней назад

My F500 Elite costed me around 120 Euro around 3 years ago. I can see them around 150 right now in amazon euro sites, so it's not as bad as that.

@MetaSynForYourSoul 9 дней назад

F500 elite (stick I still use) was around that with shipping. I get what your saying, when I used to pick up their old ps2/ps3 sticks for like 30. But I definitely think this is an improvement worth 150. I'm prob gonna grab one too.

@TheAhmedRabia 8 дней назад

Why do you call it beginner?

@ChrisStriker 8 дней назад

@@TheAhmedRabia Because it is advisable to buy something like this if it is your first arcade stick You're not going to buy a Qanba Titan so that in the end you don't like playing with something like that and you go back to the pad, you have to start something cheap (Or if you have arcade centers in your city or a friend who has these types of controls, better)

@milesmack2798 10 дней назад

My first arcade stick was the Mayflash F500, love that stick. Sad to see this doesn't support Xbox but it still looks like a really great stick for those on PlayStation and PC.

@User-pu3lc 9 дней назад

Have had a Mayflash F500 elite for a few years and LOVE it. If I was new, I’d 100% pick this F700 up for the $150 price point. The quality of life features for switching across consoles and wireless options look really nice and they’ve made swapping joysticks out even easier.

@lucasj6x939 10 дней назад

Been waiting on this one 🔥🔥

@Drovek451 10 дней назад

I bought a Mayflash 500 Elite 3 years ago, which is the old version that comes with Sanwa parts and is not wireless. I absolutely loved it and worked nice for me and would recommend. I've since switched over to a leverless (because I like to be a meme) but I would still give props to Mayflash for a nice product.

I was wanting a stick for nostalgia and tactile feel reasons and this wasn't out yet. I absolutely love my hori alpha, but for the features and my skill level, I'd 100% have bought this instead if it'd been out. Having the wireless flexibility, the general modability, and frankly, general layout and size, your review and others make it clear that this is about the best, easy recommendation for someone wanting to try stick and isn't already at a pro level of play. I mean, damn, it's convenient.

@xSnarfsx 9 дней назад

I'm a beginner and have an f500 v2 and I have to echo everything said in this video. The only complaint I actually have is the compartment door because I just know it'll break one day, and that stuff gets under the glass really easy. But like you said in the video, it's not that big of a deal because of the price point, just minor complaints.

@thecheekychoof 10 дней назад

I've got a F300 for a while and F700 definitely is a great entry stick now. I sadly never used the F500 though. Great video!

@pkphantom 10 дней назад

I just wish they made an all button variation the same time they dropped this. The 500 Flat is fine enough, but it'd be nice to have one that's compatible with PS5 without an adapter...ah well. Great video as always. I miss your reviews. I only watch reviews for two channels, and this is one of them 👍

@Quilt82 8 дней назад

Great review! I had the F500 for a long time. The one issue I came across in terms of the build was where the back panel screwed into the plastic case. With heavy use, the plastic bits where the screws attached eventually started to break off. It was never a significant issue, but still something noteworthy. From your review, I saw the back panel connection looks to be the same construction.

@ManateeMentality 10 дней назад

I got my first screw type buttons recently and I agree that they’re easier to deal with than snap-ins.

@danielqv 7 дней назад

I got the F300 as a secondary easy-travel stick, found it "used like new" at eBay for $38 after tax and shipping, and it works with everything, best deal ever. I could upgrade it with Sanwa parts, but it actually works quite well for being so inexpensive. I would recommend it for anyone looking for an entry level stick.

@willthelemon5681 10 дней назад

This looks super good! My friends use Mayflash sticks they have customized and it can be annoying trying to get it to work on PS5 at a local. Yeah the brook adapter helps but it introduces a bit of input lag (shouldn't be too bad if you keep it updated but that's another thing to worry about) and plugging into a controller should work but it will become a pain in the ass when you get to pools. So this looks like a great alternative and they can probably move their mods over no problem. Would love to see the day Xbox support is included WITH PS5 support but thats just a dream. Personally im chilling with my Victrix BFG but this is very compelling.

@justinchin0 9 дней назад

Damn this is really good for $150. I bought a qanba drone 2 for the same price and that joystick was trash and changed it out to sanwa now it's $100 lol. Maybe I will get this to play with friends but would probably swap out the joystick to sanwa as well.

@ChrisStriker 10 дней назад

I already have the F300 (Modified to Mixbox and with USB c input) and it was my first arcade stick (I still have it and use it from time to time) I was really looking forward to this model but seeing that it was not compatible with Xbox (Platform on which I currently play) I backed out but it is still an excellent arcade stick for beginners. Along with the F300 models (The one I have and that costs 60 dollars) and the F500 (Next to the F500 Flat)

@_LoDE 9 дней назад

2.4 GHz wireless with a dongle is a huge upside to anyone who wants to go to in-person events and play wirelessly: most tournaments and locals have rules that forbid the use of wireless controllers due to potential for interrupting a set, but because wireless connectivity can be tied to the dongle and not normal Bluetooth sync, the dongle option is considered wired. This is even explicitly stated in the controller rules for EVO, and most other tournaments just use the rules specified by them

I also have a obsidian 2 and hori alpha but I dunno there's just something I like about this thing. I can't recommend it enough!

@blooddumpster3427 9 дней назад

@toshikikarukawa8148 9 дней назад

I think the strong point of this stick is the wireless mode. Most of the features you comment are present in other sticks, but the wireless mode can be really useful for some people and there are hardly any options on the market that allow it. Also, the multiple compatibility with different devices is interesting. The price of $150 is a bit high, it's close to what a Hori Alpha costs, and I would go for an Alpha if I had to choose between these two, unless I really needed the wireless or switch compatibility.

@spenzalii 5 дней назад

Thinking about getting one of these just to gut the PCBs out of it and putting it in one of my custom cases. Wish there was a way to do wireless PS5 without a dongle, but short of a padhack, I don't see that happening any time soon

F500 elite has Sanwa's but you will need a brook adapter to play on PS5. F700 no Sanwa's, no support to Xbox but support for PS5 and wireless which is cool. Both are good sticks and easy to customize but if you want something that has support for Xbox and you don't want to buy Sanwa's then get the F500 Elite. I'm assuming you can play on Xbox with the F700 with a brook adapter but I don't know.

Well that’s probably because they started competing and taking it more seriously. So it makes sense that they’d upgrade to something more premium.
