What makes sanwa parts so good




















Using Sanwa parts is mostly about longevity, I believe. I highly recommend reading everything on this site, as it explains a lot about the inner workings of joysticks. How much force opposes you when you move the stick and how far you have to push it before it triggers one of the switches. I was thinking engage distance. Either way, though, short throw is preferred. Well, spring strength is easier, 'cause you can swap or cut your spring, but throw distance requires you adding new pieces of plastic and such.

He only made the move because the Q4 was dual-modded. Well then. You really have to get comfortable using an arcade stick and develop a rhythm with it. Installing better parts help with consistency, longevity, and overall feel. However, these improvements are only going to benefit intermediate or advanced-level players who are pretty competent with using an arcade stick. The compartment to access components is a bit tight but does provide an open door for tinkering, and it'll let you quickly stow your joystick when you're taking this fight stick on the move.

A lot of the best fight sticks seem to get made for PlayStation, and even though many will still work on PC, it can take a bit of mental gymnastics to press the correct controls on the fight stick when presented with on-screen prompts for Xbox controls in PC games. The Hori Fighting Stick Alpha read our review has a sleek and sturdy design, and it comes fitted with top-notch components, namely Hori's Hayabusa buttons, switches, and lever.

The Alpha has an eight-direction joystick and is highly sensitive, letting you get a quick response to your actions. The eight main buttons also have a bit of wiggle room around them, helping ensure they don't jam up against the sides of their slots and ruin any of your combos. And, if for some reason Hori's Hayabusa parts just aren't your cup of tea, the interior of the fight stick is readily accessible, so you can swap out the stock parts with the arcade components of your choice.

Plenty of great fighting games have come over to the Nintendo Switch even though they face the fierce competition of Super Smash Bros. If you're all smashed out and want to enjoy those other fighting games to the fullest, a fight stick can make your experience better and make it easier to control with the precision these games require.

It also has illuminated button labels that show you exactly which Switch controls each button represents, and it can even change to a second set of illuminated button labels for PC controls. The buttons are easy to mash away, and the joystick is satisfactorily clicky. There are even macro buttons and a turbo function. And, let's not forget that the whole thing works wirelessly with a USB dongle.

It also supports USB wired and Bluetooth connections. The 8BitDo Arcade Stick works just as well on PC and mobile as it does on the Switch, letting you get extra value out of the already fairly affordable arcade stick. Don't like the stick and just want all buttons? The Hit Box has you covered there. This controller replaces the joystick with another set of four buttons designed to work like WASD on a keyboard.

With this control scheme, your left fingers rest over left, right, and down and then you can trigger up with your thumb.

It's an interesting controller layout for sure, but it essentially gives you the precision of a D-Pad, but ergonomically arranged for fighting games. In a similar way to how the Hit Box replaces the joystick with more buttons, this arcade fight stick supplements its traditional lever input with mechanical keyboard keys.

Now, this makes more sense than you might expect as this type of setup gives you an extremely tight grouping of the four directional buttons. This spacing allows you to easily go through the motions of pulling off hadoukens and other special attacks. And since this controller uses Cherry MX red switches you're pretty much getting the fastest input with its linear action. The mechanical keyboard aspect aside, this Mixbox controller comes equipped with eight Sanwa Denshi buttons.

If you're looking to stand out or just want a different feeling stick you might be interested in the Etokki Omni Arcade Stick. Rather than using a Japanese Sanwa stick, this controller comes equipped with a Korean Taeyoung Fanta stick for a tighter and more responsive feel.

It also features a circular silicon gate that might make hitting the corners easier for you. You also get a full set of Sanwa buttons for punching in combos. Throughout this article, we will mark 24mm in green , and 30mm in Orange.

Another way that players can misinterpret the pushbutton size is by measuring the pushbutton plunger. Have a look at the diagram at right. The plunger - the part that you press down to represent an input - is 25mm or a bit smaller in most 30mm pushbuttons. Often this leads to the conclusion that one needs a 24mm button and not 30mm. Similarly measuring the button rim can lead to confusion, as it is intentionally larger than the button hole it is placed in.

You don't want to use these measurements. Instead, review the button housing diameter, or the hole the button will be placed in. You can do this with a caliper - a digital caliper is often quite helpful for this and other arcade-related projects.

How the buttons are used will depend on the model joystick that you own. Over time, we'll provide example configurations for specific popular Fightstick models and arcade cabinets using the color key for 24mm green and 30mm orange. We'll also expand the key for future models if another size is introduced, and we offer for sale.

We promise to never spam you, and just use your email address to identify you as a valid customer. Sanwa Vermillion buttons are perfect for matching with the default red that Seimitsu uses or getting closer to the more vibrant red used in classic arcade cabinets for balltops, etc.

I use vermillion buttons for my Neo Geo layouts. Sanwa's default 'red' is too dark. Ben on Dec 18th Buttons work like you'd expect sanwas to work. However if you plan to install these in a rap n like i did, you should know that i had to use a good amount of force to actually fit them in the button holes. There are a few small indents on the side of the button that actually collide with edge of the button hole.

I don't know if that was just this specific color or if it's on all obsf's though.
