PS5 Fightstick Shootout - All Playstation 5 Arcade Sticks Compared

[@toshikikarukawa8148]

I actually love the form factor of the Hori Alpha, I find it super comfortable to rest my palms on, there's plenty of room and it's not too big for me. As for the Qanbas, I think all 3 should be $40-50 cheaper, the drone 2 for $80-100, the Titan for $170-180 and the Obsidian 2 for $250 would make a lot more sense and the sticks would be a lot more desirable than they are now. About the Victrix, as you comment it's a shame they didn't take the opportunity to add the L3/R3 buttons. It's also worrying that it seems that the new PS5 versions tend to have a higher than expected fail ratio. However, just because of the chassis and its construction they play in a different league.

[@Aignith]

I think the absence of L3 and R3 on the Victrix is unforgivable. It's like they know how to build stuff but they have no idea about fighting games.

[@xxchanhonamxx]

​​@@Aignith you can program the pro button to be either L3 or R3. I was about to return mine till I found that out. It's a feature of the stick so you don't need steam configs or third party apps.

[@s0da.-.]

​@@xxchanhonamxx Still, way more convenient to have them on the stick from the get go. Quality sticks tho.

[@mateobean6635]

@@KazamaPrime Imagine that I don't want to switch to a controller if I decide I want to navigate something potentially in game, or in console UI, that requires L3 or R3.

[@megaman4997]

Hori Alpha is just a all around great stick that you previously brought up with price and how easy it's to mod. I'm in the process of customizing my Alpha sticks and the easy access it offers to do that is fast. I do want an obsidian 2 but would have to save up for that bad boy but for now the Hori Alpha will be my main for the time being😊 Love your videos and thank you for the hard work you put into your videos to keep everyone informed.

[@TheSoulCrisis]

Great review of different arcade sticks…..just purchased a Qanba Obsidian fight stick! Between your review and Maximillian’s I felt confident pulling the trigger on this purchase now. The weight, design, and form factor really appeal to me without breaking my wallet (although not “cheap” by any means). Looking forward to setting up my PS5 Slim this weekend, downloading SF 6, and playing around with my new high quality arcade stick when it comes Sunday! 😎

[@chadcampbell8322]

Did I hear right at the end of the video there is no toggle to switch the stick between left stick, right stick or d-pad when needed on the Victrix?! I've been eyeing this stick for a while but haven't wanted to spend so much yet. That might be a deal breaker and I might lean towards the Obsidion 2.

[@chrishastings6312]

If I could have features. I loved the way MadCatz TE2 stick was done. They did make the TE3 but it won't work with the PS5. Would love to see a version created for with a selector switch for PS5, 4, 3, and PC. Have a True 8 Position Joystick included with a selector for Thumbstick, and Left Joystick. Lockout feature. I loved the screw on locking feature for the USB cord of the Madcatz TE2. Same idea could be applied for a USB type C. Have the Ball or Bat Top screw on top for the Joystick and have the ability to lock it so it won't unscrew. Dewalt makes a great design of how the phillips bits are held in the drill. DEWALT 8V MAX Cordless Screwdriver Kit, Gyroscopic, 2 Batteries, Electric (DCF680N2). Have the locking and unlocking ability to remove the stick like this drill does would be an awesome feature. It holds in 8 sided bits very well and they don't wobble at all. Buttons that can be back lit. They could light the position of the joystick as well with arrows that light up. Extra buttons on the top is the best placement vs back buttons of the TE2. The ability to have artwork installed on the front cover like the TE2 has. Fingerprint resistant plastic. The wideness over too vertical. Slide proof padding underneath. A mounting stand that is adjustable to ones sitting height that is stable or standing height and can lock the controller to it and be able to adjust the pitch of the controller from flat to slightly tilted and is very stable. Can collapse and be put into a carrying bag. Access to the parts inside and can fold up the USB cable and joystick tops inside the case for transport or storage. Also make a version of the hand held controller that is like the same layout as the 8 buttons on top and the left thumb controller. The miniture joystick on the left side is harder to control in street fighter series like games on those kinds of controllers. Can still have all the other buttons like they normally are for other games. Just more options for configuring what is most comfortable for each person of where they like certain buttons. Maybe the others could be used to program for two or 3 buttons being hit at the same time for one button for the extras. Since Street Fighter like games give those options. Such as two buttons at the same time for throws could be one button. They could always add more buttons to the sticks to allow for programming those ideas as well. I noticed in SFV that there were more programming button configurations than there were buttons available. So making a controller that can have more buttons to cover everything would be a great idea. It is just a matter of finding where to place them that would make the controller the most comfortable to use. Spacing is a key thing and button size is also something to consider. Don't want the buttons to be too big so that people with small hands have trouble reaching them. 3 rows of buttons would be great and the ones used the most should be at the bottom two layers. Less used buttons for multi-button combo press ones could be positioned at the top row. I've seen controllers in the past that has the ability to rotate knobs to control the rate of rapid fire before on NES and SNES systems before. I created my own modification for the Sega master system. It allowed the sega genesis controller to be plugged into it and it worked. A, B, and C did the same thing for D, E, and F buttons. All I had to do is cut the traces and wire up 555 timer circuits and place pots and capacitors in and solder and I had a way to create adjustable rapid fire. I did the in the Rocky Game for Sega Master System. The Speedbag training I was able to get max and got my skills up to max before I had to verse Ivan Drago. It was a project I did when I went to Eastland Career Center in electronics. Was a great learning experience applying what I learned in school, before controllers like this were being created.

[@kungfuchef8500]

well I wanted to get an Alpha and mod it with sanwa parts, but there's no easy way to buy one in Canada... only place I found that could take orders said it's backorder and don't know when it'll be available.. while I could order an obsidian 2 from Qanba and get it in a week or so. Sure, it'll cost more, but I'll be sure to receive it before SF6 comes out... Decisions, decisions...

[@McpCosmO]

what about the Nacon Daija PS5 ? :)

[@sentakuselect]

There's also that Nacon Daija 2/White PS5 stick but I understand that it's more of a European market only item (it's like a Razer Panthera but slightly smaller) for about 290 euro. Yeah for price and brand, I would pick the Hori FS Alpha out of all of them due to familiarity of the Hori Real Arcade Pro.N, it's form factor resembles a thicker box shape to the FS Alpha and I believe that Hori also has a companion app for it to custom profiles and bindings. My current sticks for this generation are my Padhacked Victrix replicate and Hori Fighting Edge (2017/PS4).

[@BriarRabbit]

Yeah! The Daija looks great, but I can’t seem to get it in the US!

[@sentakuselect]

@@BriarRabbit Just like EU only Venom Arcade Stick (officially licensed and rebranded Mayflash F500), I think you could only get them new through middle man/proxy service but the good thing is that the PS4 and PS5 versions are virtually identical with the exception of PCB and color. Qanba has one super limited PS5 arcade stick coming out soon, it looks like they replicated the huge control panel from a Taito Vewlix candy cab and attached a table with wheels on it.

@@PrinceTrunx The price is a total turnoff though IMO, I've had Qanba stuff since their PS3 days like the RAF Q3 wireless PS3 stick with the wooden enclosure to the the Q4 PS3 & Xbox 360 stick and I recently sold my Obsidian to a friend. I wrapped all the silver aluminum pieces satin black and he asked what the difference between the Obsidian and Obsidian 2 was and I told him that the main difference is that the Obsidian 2 is fully PS5 native and that it's got a new designed, he took my Obsidian (I threw in a 6 button plexiglass too) right away for $180 CAD instead of taking a look at the Obsidian 2 which is $422 CAD not including the $70 UDS shipping to Canada.

[@kungfuchef8500]

@@BriarRabbit impossible to get in Canada as well

[@staggerlee1869]

My two favorite commercial sticks are Victrix pro fs and the Nacon Daija. The Obsidian 2 is good, but the cable is not detachable, changing the artwork requires you to purchase a clear plastic cover (they have them at Focus Attack), there’s not a lot of room for the joystick so I was unable to use the crown 2d 3D lever and the black plexiglass gets easily smudged. It does have a nice weight to it though making it stable. The Victrix and the Daija took into consideration that your wrists rest on the joystick after hours of play. The Victrix curved aluminum is comfortable and it stays cool. The Daija has a pad to rest your wrists on.

Thank you for checking all of these fight sticks. i was sold on the Drone 2 til i read your review, then after your Drone 2 explanation i was sold on the Fightstick alpha, and after that i was sold on the Titan and that's more or less where i am - because the reason you stated, it might feel wrong as i hold it on my lap and im 6'2. but i also get a bit of wrist pain in my current situation with the Razer Panthera, which mind you is an amazing fightstick. i paid $200 for it years ago, and id consider it to be a "heavy weight" stick. so i figured if i go with something a bit lightweight, maybe more ergonomic id be able to play more comfortably. Titan looks amazing for that, and the quality of the parts are good too, its more or less a better version of Drone 2 if your review is anything to go by. in my heart sure i kinda want the obsidian 2, but i fear id run into the same issues as the razer panthera causes me now.

[@Neopumper666]

I have the titan and I bought it because I forgot my controller at evo, someone lended me a titan and immediately felt comfortable playing with it, so I went to a booth and got it for 200. Love the weight and grip vs the drone, the stick separation is a plus for me as well, besides that it is an overall upgrade. I didn't even know it had the new jlf sanwa lever until after I had bought the thing. I also like the matte black look I think you can't go wrong with the titan

The Hori Fighting Stick Alpha was an easy choice for me. Just affordable and has everything you need. Qanba has really inflated their products to way beyond afforadable means. The Drone started as a good beginner stick and now it's asking for a premium price. The Titan and Obsidian 2 are close to the Dragon price, but the Dragon definitely felt more luxury. Victrix on the other hand...I don't know what they're thinking. The fact it plays on PS5 natively suddenly makes it worth $100 more than the PS4 equivalent? TBH if you don't have a stick and want one. Hori is the way to go. If you have a previous fightstick from the last gen then just get the Brook PS5 converter it's cheaper. I bought the Hori before even seeing information about the converter. I hope Hori comes back w/a more premium version of their sticks like they did with the Fighting Edge last gen. I know it'll probably be a better choice and still under Qanba's price offers.

If Obsidian 2 had a Detachable cable and was able to open. I would have bought it in a heartbeat. XD I got obsidian pearl instead because it's on sale right now.

[@BriarRabbit]

I added a removable cable to mine.

I went down that same route. Just waiting for qanba to ship it!

I've never owned a fighting stick , nor will I ever buy one, but you are the nicest, coolest guy on DCP, and that's what counts.

[@BriarRabbit]

You are too kind!

Asethic wise I like my SF6 themed Hori Alpha. I like the buttons and weight of my Obsidian 2 but I overpaid. My overall is my Mayflash F500 Elite. With the extra adapter I can do so much with that stick. Even use it to play with non-PS5 controllers and other sticks.

[@pkphantom]

I firmly believe that a ps5 arcade stick is a scam right now. You're paying more for less

[@johanseth3277]

I agree You can just buy a PS4 stick half the price and is ps5 compatible. I buy my rap4 for 50 bucks While people are buying ps5 sticks over 300 dollars

​@johanseth3277 I ended up getting a Vitrix pro for my birthday. I had a chance to get it for less than an Obsidian 2 and went for it 🤣 But frankly, even if it wasn't for that immense stroke of luck, I still would've rather spend the extra money for a new Vitrix pro before I got any of Qanba's PS5 sticks off principle alone

[@johanseth3277]

@@pkphantom that's a really good find though And it's still in good condition Plus victrix whether PS4 or ps5 is still worth the investment cause you get what you needed but in a premium stick.

[@homersimpson5501]

Unfortunately it’s Sonys licensing prices to make them usable on the ps5 that has made them so expensive :’(

I know nothing about fight sticks (I basically never play fighting games) and every time I get a notification for a briar video, they all look/sound the same to me, so I keep thinking he's reposting the same video, haha

they all too big qanba drone 1 is ok, but older stick shape is better

[@RickeyAnthony-e3r]

Yea... the obsidian is bad hori n victrix are the ones to go for

Qanba is actually pronounced "Chan-ba"

[@TheArtOfJerry]

Should we boycott all the expensive stick. It is madness 😅. Save the money to buy a Xbox?

Fightsticks are outdated overpriced scam trash. Basic ps5 controller dominates in fighting games now, and to think something less than 16 switches on piece of plexy glass is $300 is hilarious, get with the times guys, anyone under 35 never “played arcade” so thats what their used to, you played console at home on your pads.
