Arcade stick

My bad. You named a few older sticks so I figured you are at least half planning to swap in your own board. I'm not sure what system you're planning to use them with, or if you'd be trying to get converters. It seemed like some minor mods would be necessary for a few of those options.

 

All good. I use a brooks converter on my ps4 to play my ps1 pad, no issues. So im looking for a ps1/ps2 sticks.

 

Sorry guys im back again, I have the opportunity to buy the Konami HyperStick. Just waned to get some thoughts on it:

I'm always wary of sticks where the buttons are soldered straight to the PCB because they're basically impossible to repair once the buttons/switches go.

That said, getting ones with better wiring ups the price a fair deal, so if you're looking for a cheaper old stick then it's probably fine. Just a pitfall to watch out for. I had a Hori Soul Calibur 2 stick back in the day that was basically a brick once the buttons started going.

 

Youre right, thats allot. IF I did get the stick, I would have someone to do all that (hopefully) for me.

PS3 backwards compatibility can be dicey for tournaments. SCVI has it but if neither player has a current gen controller (e.g. two PS3 sticks) then it wouldn't work, IIRC. It's fine for locals, home play, and casuals, but it could be an issue at events. This is just based on my experience with similar games.

 

Yoooooooo!

I heard some ps3 stick horror stories playing on other systems. Hori 3 sticks are hit and miss on PS4

 

Thoughts?

The Qanba Carbon isn't natively PS4 compatible, but the Qanba Drone is:

I've used many Qanbas in the past (borrowed at events etc.). They've always been fine. See if you can find a Qanba Drone at a good price - might be a good option, only about $20 over your current budget, and much cheaper than the high end stuff.

 

I have a seller in JApan that wants to sell me a $50 Konami Hyperstick plus $25 shipping and I dont think thats the route now. Going to read up on the Qanba.

 

I'm almost certain that stick is a rebranded Qanba Obsidian. Looks exactly like the one I had. You can even get clear plexi from Focus Attack and insert your own VF artwork.

 

FWIW I went for a Hori RAP4. Tried it out a few times in the past couple of days and seems like a decent enough stick. It's got a square gate. In my VF prime I used a £40 stick and didn't have any problems with it, it's just got to feel right for you.

 

Has anyone tried their ps3 stick to play VF5 on PS4?? Hopefully they installed that driver that has the game recognize legacy sticks?

 

Are you in STL or is it your nephew that still logs on your PS3!!!?

 

So will we see your PAI any time soon

 

I agree which is why im cautious in buying a 200+ dollar stick and it wont feel right. I played VF4 Evo on an PLAYSTATION PS1 PSX ASCIIWARE FIGHT STICK Joystick and it felt great.
