Excellent price for an outstanding product
Fantastic joystick. High-quality parts, excellent response time, and compatibility. I’m really happy with this one. It’s much better than Madcatz, Hori, and Qanba. It’s also way cheaper than the others. It has a great weight to it as well. I would fully buy this again.

Great value, great features.
With the great features (BT/2.4g wireless, backlit button labels, turbo, macros, etc.), solid build quality, and long battery life this pad is an amazing value.The buttons feel great and the stick is good. I might swap out the gate in the future to make the stick feel a bit better, but for now it’s just fine.I liked this pad so much I ended up buying 8BitDo’s regular xbox-style controller and that one also offers so much more than the official controllers do.

Great fighting stick for the Switch 2
You do need to patch the firmware for this for the switch 2, but it is fantastic. The weight is great, the battery life is excellent and it seems really sturdy and well made. The price makes this a steal. I am very happy with it.

Decent fight pad
It’s a decent fight pad. After messing around on it, I opened it up because the buttons kinda felt cheap and not as responsive as I was hoping. I saw how they put the buttons on, and it is made kind of meh. The size of it actually good though. Also you can change out the buttons if you have the know how, which solves most of the problems with it. It is cheaper than other fight pads, so the cheaper buttons are to be expected.

Wow I can afford this!? Makes arcade games 10 times more fun!
Very fun to use and it makes me feel like I’m playing an actual arcade cabinet!Everything is responsive and I like that you can make the joystick act as a Dpad or a 8 direction joystick.This legit makes playing Arcade games on my Switch so much more fun.Problem is that it only works for certain type games such as fighting games and arcade games since it lacks dual joysticks and just the ergonomics.Random.I played Ninja Gaiden Rage a 2D action platformer and found it worked well.Mario maker was not terribly comfortable to play though.Can’t believe the quality for the price thanks!

8BitDo Retro Arcade Fight Stick – A Must-Have for Classic Arcade Emulation
I initially had doubts about the 8BitDo Retro Arcade Fight Stick, thinking it felt “cheap” because the joystick only moves in 8 directions. However, before writing it off, I talked to a buddy and did some research—turns out, that’s exactly what you want in a quality fight stick. The tactile clicks from the switches aren’t a flaw; they’re a mark of precision and build quality.Once I fired up Street Fighter on my micro PC running Batocera, everything clicked (literally). The accuracy of the joystick made executing combos feel natural, and it completely changed how I experience fighting games. Beyond fighters, it’s also fantastic for NEO GEO, MAME, and even non-arcade classics, adding a retro authenticity that modern controllers just don’t match.Now, this has become the go-to controller in my household, and the temptation to grab a second one is getting stronger every day. If you’re serious about classic arcade emulation, this fight stick is a no-brainer.

Muito bom, produto de qualidade, estava aguardando uma promoção desse arcade, nem acredito que consegui por 550 reais

El control es versátil y bueno la palanca se siente de buena calidad y los botones igual en caso de querer cambiarlos es posible, tiene un peso adecuado para evitar que se mueva en las partidas si ejerces mucha fuerza, los modos de conexión son amplios así que es perfecto para usarlo en PC, Nintendo switch y equipos que usen android, el retraso es casi imperceptible, si buscas un control arcade de buena calidad este cumple hay otros más baratos que también lo hacen pero de menor calidad y si buscas algo más premium o que sea compatible con otras plataformas hay otras opciones igual en Amazon a buen precio.

I’m really glad that I purchased this joystick. It is the most versatile arcade controller out of everything on the market. It works on Mac, PC, iPad, iPhone and Nintendo Switch. I’m pretty sure it even works on the Apple TV. It works with either Bluetooth, wired or a 2.4GHz adapter. The best part? You are able to modify it with whatever buttons and joystick combination you prefer! I replaced all of the buttons with snap-in Sanwa 30mm and soon the joystick—also Sanwa. It is quick, responsive and with practically zero lag! I highly recommend purchasing this product!

Great weight, has good amount of room with both hands resting on the joystick. Has the ability to upgrade to Sanwa joystick and joystick restrictors ie circle 4 way, 8 way etc. I eventually upgraded to the Sanwa joystick and buttons. Battery life is good and replaceable as long as you have some basic soldering skills. Uses a LIPO 3.7v battery. Love the upgradeability of this and easy to work with for tinkering upgrades!

I ordered this to play arcade games on my mister fpga, the wireless functionality works great and is the best way to play remotely. Bluetooth is also okay but had some noticeable delay. Also playing wired is possible if you’re wanting the absolute lowest input lag.Will be ordering a second one!
