Your reviews of arcade sticks are by far my favourite videos you make, thank you!

Getting this stick in the mail tomorrow.
This was a really great review to let me know how the profiles work.
Very cool. Thank you!

I'm actually super excited to get this stick a very close friend of mine is gifting me this for Christmas!

There must be some hidden meaning behind him wearing his shirt wrong side out >:[

I have the Hori RAP4 Noir which I absolutely love. It works on the PS5 also. I changed the buttons to Sanwa because I thought the Hayabusa were too sensitive (double imputs). I like that you can change the artwork for that, the easy access inside the case and the different profiles.

I really loved A-sticks and after 12 year I could finally buy one (the hori alpha). Some people used to suggest the Hitbox but my little finger and my annular close each other as soon as one of the two is pulled down so I couldn't do motions very well. I discovered you very recently but your sticks reviews really helped me making my choice and even realize if I would have been better with something like a fight pad or an arcade stick, not to mention giving me a clear view on the world of sticks.

He really sniffed the paper that extracts the fumes from manufacturing.

You've always been my favorite person when it comes to fight stick reviews. I hope you decide to do one with the Nacon Daija sometime!

I started with a leverless, but after going to a nearby arcade with friends near my house and getting smoked on Alpha 2 because I didn't know how to play with the traditional setup I bought one of these to practice.

I now basically just play on this, it isn't as "good" as a leverless but it just feels more fun and I suck anyway.

you can see at 1:00 that is not his first time opening a box. this is a technique you have to practise for years :D

I have the Hori Rap N Hayabusa for Ps4 but I have only used it on my PC, I love it 😄. I had to test different ways to hold the stick but i now think I got more used to it.

Dude hori and their noir layout, on goddd

[KAHJIRAH]

I think this is the perfect stick for me I've recently been looking to get one yt recommendations r goated💪

[julinyas]

So the Hori software seems kind of similar to what the crossup does but without the extra 4 buttons. Pretty neat.

[AngelXMikey]

How is the latency on this stick VS the fighting edge? Both are Hori and this one is newer. Wondering if this one feels more responsive or about the same

Great review, Please do a review on the Naicon Daija Arcade stick.

[BEkov-kdcf]

I know the cable isn't detachable, but is it easy to replace if it ever breaks? Do they sell replacements?

[ANHON]

Great review. Meesa will be getting the HORI SF6 fight stick soon. 😊

[johnnyroche]

Nice vid! Does it come with an octagonal gate as well or just the 4way gate?

Also, does it happen too work on Switch?

I currently have a Mayflash 300. The main selling point on that for me was the price and the fact that it’s compatible with the ps4 and Switch.

[Ksheffi]

I've been thinking about getting a fight stick. So I can give my ps5 gamepad a break. This one was on the short list.

Glad I found you channel. Awesome review, by the way.
