SJ@JX Arcade LED Joystick SANWA Style Fight Game Joystick LED Stick Retro Joy Circular Octagonal Limiter for Retro Pie Raspberry Pi MAME JAMMA

Nice and very good looking controllers, super esay to install.

All around decent enough Sanwa style stick. Minus a star only due to the dust washer sitting flat, which causes the clear surface to get scratches and takes away from its translucent effect. A small extended outer ring would lift the washer high enough to solve this. The stick has a slightly better than average spring action to it, being slightly more snappy and having a little better resistance compared to your average similar style sticks. Ball puts off a softer illumination than what is shining through the base of the stick. Having a highly reflective surface in the inner wall drilled for the stick would emphasize the glow emitted f rf of the base. I will be buying other colors eventually from here.

Joystick appears to be well build and comparable to other sticks on the market. I plugged the led wires into an encoder I had and the lights appeared to be dim. Light just doesn't seem to get into the ball top to really give off any light. When you have these sticks and you are pairing them up with led light up buttons, it would be nice to have equal light on the joystick to match the buttons. I was hoping that these would be a more affordable option to other light up sticks I have tried but these just don't have the same light. I ordered this red one, and I have a green one coming tomorrow, so maybe I'll get lucky and it will look better.

Not all these are created equal. LED did not light. Tested on multimeter, no continuity on leads. Just overall bad workmanship. Bent mounting plate. Suspect that was the reason for no continuity.

had to fix lines to make it work

Im very pleased with these joysticks. The functionality is great. I like how there isn’t much wiggle room in these joysticks. It has solid and stiff controls. Paired with 4lb springs, feels very nice. Just wish the lighting was brighter. I had hardwired the LED to a 12v outlet. Decided to stick with the included adapter to the usb encoder for the 5v power supply since the increase in brightness from 12v to 5v was hardly noticeable.

LED is not too bright on the joystick but functions fine... was a bit disappointed in how the light did not shine as bright as it advertised. Overall, not a bad product.

Joystick is solid. Lights are dim. Very unfortunate

People on here going on about this being a cheap piece of junk are out of their gourds. Yes it's inexpensive but it's not cheap at all. I wouldn't have an issue with using it in an actual arcade to replace a broken joystick. It's sturdy as all heck compared to my Happ joystick that I bought probably 15 years ago. That thing was all ABS and heavy but it still ended up feeling sloppy after only a few months use in my garage when I came out for a smoke.This little unit is easy to wire, I love that it comes with the multi-way adapters and the LED light that I thought would be a dumb gimmick is actually really cool and adds to my bartop arcade build. It feels very solid and the switches are nice and clicky and satisfying. My only gripe is that the whole joystick spins in the mount so especially when performing fighting game moves that require you to roll down then forward for Hadouken's it feels weird at first because the ball stays in your hand and just spins down in the mount rather than you having to twist your wrist a bit like on the actual arcade cabinet from the 90's. Doesn't really have an effect on the game, just noticeable as a different feel. It's a great stick and doesn't break the bank vs a genuine Sanwa. Gets the job done well on a budget.

The joystick works fine but the led didn’t work for some reason

Súper fácil su instalación en mi 8BitDo Arcade Stick, quedó impresionante.Responde muy bien, y con el restrictor octagonal puedes jugar a los de pelea como en las ya casí extintas maquinitas arcade.El rojo combina bien con los botones y el LED da un toque muy especial.

Ordinato quello con la pallina verde... mi arriva gialla... ma la cosa più assurda è che con il cavetto in dotazione (impossibile sbagliare verso) il led dello stick non si accendeva... pensavo fosse rotto il led, invece poi leggendo i commenti di altri che l'hanno acquistato, scopro che il cablaggio di default è errato ed i fili per l'illuminazione vanno invertiti, consiglio di usare 2 fili con jumper femmina da entrami i capi per un veloce test per verificare...

O led que ilumina o manipulo é fraquissimo, quase nao se vê nenhuma iluminação.
