TheObscureGamer Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I was just wondering what do you think is the best arcade stick for fighting games. the balltop or bat top arcade sticks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynicaster Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I'm not a fighter guy, so I don't really have an opinion, but I would think the actual design of the joystick itself would be more important than whether the shaft has a bat or ball on top. For example, mico switches or leaf switches? Shaft length? Type of physical restriction (if any)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
number six Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 This is going to divide a lot of people. A lot of 'hard core' fighting fans prefer the Japanese Sanwa sticks which are ball tops. I played a lot of Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat back in the arcades which were always the Happ Bat style, so that's what I still prefer. I also prefer the standard buttons versus the concave japanese ones as well but I'm no fighting game pro. There is no right answer, it's all about preference.

racerx Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I also prefer the standard buttons versus the concave japanese ones as well but I'm no fighting game pro. Japanese buttons are generally convex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
