  • Starter Builder?
Color: Red
Built my friend a Fighting Stick because he was getting into Tekken. He didn't have to download any drivers and is using it to learn before he gets a bigger one. I'd say it has served its purpose.

  • Super convient connectors
Color: White
I've put together a few of these kind of button sets together and these are by far the best ones! Mostly because of their connectors to the buttons. It's are so much easier than wads of wires like other sets.

  • Best Value, Great Product
Color: White
Bought one of these to see how it would work with my RetroPie system from the Raspberry Pi console and it worked tremendously well. I ended up buying four of them and created a two portable arcade boards. Easy to put together which was a big deal for me since I don't work with wiring or computers at all. I was able to figure it out no problem. ... show more

  • Pretty good.
Color: White
Buttons are responsive and the instructions are somewhat clear (tip: make sure ground is on the top and bottom of the crown logo, side does not matter) However the buttons are really bright and you can't really dim them. You can probably take the button apart to put an overlay in it to dim it a little but I haven't tried it yet. It also would be nice if the controller had a mark on it so you can tell which way is up before connecting it all up. ... show more

  • Retropie Joystick Build
Color: White
Purchased this for my retropie build and it works great. I built it into a TV tray and put some hours into it and working great and lights up real good. Also put inserts in the buttons so they would glow and it worked out perfectly.

  • Soft-Touch buttons like laptop, not a 4/8 way joystick, LEDs brighter than expected.
Color: White
Yikes! I didn't realize how bright the buttons would be! Brighter than an average night light... it's so bright I've had to unplug them to play in a darker room as it blinds me. Will be adding a resistor later to dim the lights. The information on installation? no good The instructions shipped with it were for a different model entirely - the labelling on the controller was practically useless, but I was able to figure it out plug by plug. Some of them seem not to have any effect. Reason for losing star #1 - beyond the previously mentioned issues, these are NOT classic arcade buttons. They're more... "soft touch" buttons. Think slim, newer mode, silent laptop keyboard type keys. You can literally press them with no audible sound and it'll register. This COMPLETELY ruins the "classic arcade feeling" for me. These will be my guest controls I suppose. No "click" just doesn't do it for me. Gimme those cherry MX switches, thanks. Reason for star #2: They shipped this with THE WORST PLATE POSSIBLE. The directional guide/restrictor plate for the joystick is a 4-way corner layout. Meaning unless you're playing Crystal Castles, or Qbert or similar, it'll be almost impossible to play any game smoothly. And if it'a a fighting game? Make that impossible. I spent about an hour trying to get around it on one of my all-time favorite arcade cabinets (one I've owned the original 1986 retail unit of for years and years - Bubble Bobble) and I just couldn't do it. The "snap-to-corner" layout screws everything up.. There are 3 main layouts - 4 way, 8 way, and corners. 8 way is the most common/popular, and what I assumed this would come with since it's LISTED as a 4/8 way set. I assumed incorrectly that it would come with the other plates to swap out. It did not. Therefore the listing is incorrect It is neither a 4 way NOR 8 way joystick. It's corner-focused. Pacman is almost impossible to play even - and that's another one I used to spend LOTS of quarters on and for a time owned (ok, in cocktail table form, granted, but STILL...) VERY few games used this layout. I remember Crystal Castles and Qbert... hmm... Either way, poor choice for the one it was shipped with. Now I have to go and find and order more parts, delaying me further. I know technically that's more than enough listed reasons to take another star if I just went off of that, but overall it's not a bad product, just not what I expected. Other than perhaps the joystick having the wrong plate. THAT was a bad move. Even if they'd put a 4-way on there it would have been way more compatible, but right now it's hard to use even for people who LIKE soft buttons that don't click and provide 0 tactile feedback because it's nearly impossible to actually point it left/right/up/down since you're "floating" between positions. ... show more

  • Can't beat the price
Color: White
Buttons feel a little cheap but are high quality for the price. They look great when lit up as well! Perfect for DIY custom arcade projects.

  • Missing so many important pieces
Color: White
My son's birthday won't include the cool light up controller he wanted. Missing buttons, missing wires....C'mon the wires guys! It's supposed to be a set. Let alone the buttons were shorted, I only received five of the eight main buttons, but the wires to connect everything wasn't included. You guys really let me down. I guess I'll check out someone else. Good luck with your extra parts you kept.... ... show more
