Which is the best stick for fighters

(1/3) > >>

jaydog:
Planning to build a Mame cab, mostly for SFA3 and Marvel vs Capcom, which joystick is best to use for these games ? Any help would be appreciated, thanx

Lilwolf:
Read Oscars reviews to pick one.  Ultimates are ranked lowest... then supers... Then compititions was ranked the best.

The review itself goes into details and is very well done.  Searth the links (on left) for Oscars webpage (or below in messages of his).  Then its under other stuff or something on the page.

jaydog:
I just recieved the competitiion joystick in the mail.  It seems ok but has a very distinct "clicking sound" when you move it.  It also seems a bit more stiff than those found in the arcades, are these things less noticeable when you mount it on a cab or is this just the way it is?

aramis:
most fighting games use either the Competition Joystick or the Perfect 360 (optical) Joystick.

Please use the search function in this forum, as this question has been asked many, many times...

toilet:
Most modern quality fighter cabs use the Perfect 360's.

They're optical so you don't have the 'clicking' sound you were refering to since it doesn't use microswitches. They also tend be a little looser. The only issue with them are you have to supply a 5V power supply to them.

As far as the traditional microswitch stick, I'm pretty sure it's the Ultimate.

I play fighters religously and that's the stick I have in my pair of existing MAS sticks http://www.massystems.com.
