Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT Joystick + Sanwa 8 pcs OBSF-30 Push Button Bundle Kit Color : Green - for Arcade Game 4 & 8 Way Adjustable, Compatible with Catz Mad SF4 Tournament Joystick S@NWA

When I got the 8bitdo arcade, while never owning one before, I could easily tell that the experience could be better so naturally I headed to YouTube and was recommend this beauty and have no complaints.

All the clips on the cheap joysticks in my Pandoras Box retro arcade console had broken and rendered the console useless. Purchased a couple of Sanwa joysticks and buttons as replacments. It changed the experience entirely. The responsiveness is better than when the console was new. One note: the default configuration has the restrictor plate in 4-way mode. Most will likely prefer it in 8-way mode so dont forget to change the configuration before installing.

theres no protective layer for the bare shaft of the joystick. i wish it had one. otherwise the item overall is in excellent condition.

Sanwa joysticks and buttons are the best and I highly recommend them

My problem here is not with the product, the buttons and joystick work fine. The problem is the ridiculous way they crammed the joystick and buttons in one tiny little box with absolutely no protection from friction during shipping, etc. Six of the eight button faces were damaged and scratched from being jammed into this tiny little box. Not a good look at all....if I buy Sanwa parts in the future, I’ll be sure to order the pieces separately.

Sanwa products are the best!! The only negative on my order was that the buttons were scratched and had to return them.

Unfortunately when I installed it; only Right control responded, went to disassemble it, noticed there was a lot of paste in each quadrant

Great quality. Very sensible and responsive. Accurate diagonals.

If you are building or modifying a stick, you cant do better than Sanwa for value and classic feel. I wont recommend japanese over korean parts, or vice versa, but japanese parts feel clickier and more standardized in a way. Look elsewhere if you are looking for the feel of korean machines.

Only a little bit better than those cheap button, i can not recommend this to anyone with its price
