Building an Arcade Stick - Piece by Piece

[@jonyfraze]

Thanks for supporting BnB!!

[@redheadphones6]

Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think of this kind of video. I'd like to occasionally make more unique videos like this from time to time, so definitely let me know!

[@tannersula1626]

I’m glad you’re doing more unique content and can’t wait to see what you’re working on in the future

[@trelainshinholster6916]

AWESOME BUILD!!!

[@longduckdong6522]

Helped a friend build his own fight stick similar to this a couple weeks ago (after years of playing fighting games using controller thumbsticks lol). He has been loving it so hope you are satisfied with it as well!

[@BENch_Gaming44444]

Honestly, this was a really nice guide to building a fightstick. I'm probably gonna use this when I build mine to check my work.

[@vm_duc]

you cruel, cruel man, releasing this on april fools. really tripped me up watching this and hearing all the familiar phrases applied to something im completely foreign to.

[@redheadphones6]

lol, I figured this was a 'build' video, so wouldn't be too much of a stretch. I am curious though, since you don't seem into Fighting Games, would you like more videos like this, or do you prefer this channel just stick to Gundam reviews? Honestly not sure how people react to more unique videos like this.

[@vm_duc]

@@redheadphones6 oh i don't mind. it's fascinating to peer into different hobbies and what people do there. i'd prefer more gunpla content, sure, but these kinds of videos are fine, too. besides, it's good knowing you have other interests outside of gunpla.

[@zer0coolninja887]

Bro 😂😂😂 i live near the border and you can have mexican carpenters or 3D printers custom your own full arcade or fight sticks for a steal. Pesos is at 17 to 19 to 1 dollar 😂😂😂 even sell mods and emulators

[@ahmedbilal-wc8jl]

Can u share size of this board. We wish to make .

[@Frost_Glitch2.0]

This video was really cool! Never thought i'd be this invested in a arcade stick video though!

[@fingersleeves9551]

Great tutorial thank you! Just curious, where did you get that plastic cover at 9:57?

[@Pertan85]

I'm planning on building my first stick and this video was very helpful. Really appreciate all the details while keeping it simple enough for a novice like myself. Thanks!

[@l3xther3x86]

Was a little hesitant to warch this since its not or usual, but i really liked this! Interesting to watch and building stuff is always fun to do and watch. If you do more of this ill be here!

[@ericbloodsmith5161]

Love to see someone else using the Phreakmods Link EX Groove, it makes travel so much easier. I use an Otto diy V2 kit on my JLF to make it feel like a korean lever. The teflon V5 kit with a metal pivot might suit you if you ever feel like upgrading. Very cool to see you enjoy Blazblue. I mostly play Guilty Gear +R but recently got CF. Can't wait to dive into it!

[@ern8988]

Ok something different..... I fw it 👍👍👍

[@ChimeraSubject45]

Wierdest gundam I've ever seen. Must be a G gundam kit.

[@tannersula1626]

This is awesome, besides gundam I do play a lot of KOF and Tekken

[@RandomPotatas]

Do you have like the link for the parts you bought really liked this build

[@Laughing_Individual]

Though I wasn't looking for Gunpla, your video showed up on my feed because I've been down the arcade stick rabbit hole lately. Just wanted to say thanks for clearing up my worries on actually going full custom. This is a lot more straight forward than I thought it'd be. Did you have to install any firmware to get things up and running?

[@redheadphones6]

Thanks! Great question too. I was nervous about firmware stuff, but the Brook PCB worked great right out of the box. I did later install a firmware update from their website, but it was really easy. Just download a small file, plug the stick into a PC, run the file, and it's done. Seems like it was mainly bug fixes, so not needed, but easy enough to do that I'd recommend it.

[@Laughing_Individual]

​@@redheadphones6 Noted. Thanks again. I'm going for a Korean lever. Currently waiting for on Sanjuks V7 to arrive.

[@thecheekychoof]

This is appreciated! Thank you for the video

[@johnlund3088]

Very nice review of the bnb👌👍😀 very muched enjoyed watching it from start to finish.

[@drader88]

Where can can I find the water graphic you used, I love it 👀

[@FaJinLei]

Can I use screw terminals for Buttons and joy stick wiring. Harness is really expensive 🥺

[@user-lynKx]

that's sick

[@pepega2391]

never in my life played a fighting game, but it's a redheadphones video so of course I gotta watch 😎 though the youtube algorithm might not like you making non-gunpla videos

[@_Ztein_]

hello, Brook PS4+ Audio Fighting Board is good pcb?

[@TheKurikCale]

And because another commenter brought it up. I now want a G Gundam 2D fighting game. Come on Bandai Namco.

[@JasonGardner-m2o]

Random stickbox vid? Unexpected but ok

[@michaelwright1994]

do you have links for the items in the video?

[@redheadphones6]

I'm not sponsored or anything so kinda felt weird posting links to shops and stuff lol. But I basically bought everything from FocusAttack.com They have a category for the BnB fightstick that runs through all the basic parts. It's definitely the best way to build a stick like this, though I did have to go off Amazon for the Brook PCB (sold out everywhere else) and most of the buttons I already had on standby.

[@taifhasan469]

People don't appreciate the king of fighters series anymore this makes me feel very sad

[@redheadphones6]

Agreed. I always thought the KOF series was amazing. I'm big into the Orochi saga. Such great games, and it's so cool putting Kyo, Terry and Ryo on the same team. KOF FOREVER!!!

[@Juan-hh1jy]

Works with PlayStation 5?

[@redheadphones6]

Yes. This Brook PCB doesn’t control the left or right stick, but it works for the D-pad. Most fighting games will work just fine, though you should probably consult the manual to make sure.

[@jaymoffett9475]

Shit, this dude.... talking about Sanwa buttons: "yeah, that classic arcade feel..." Homeboy, u did not grow up in Japan. No one uses US parts from the arcade days. The US parts were too fackin ultra manly

[@redheadphones6]

? I really got into fighting games during my time in Japan when I played in arcades. As much as I'd enjoy rambling about my time blowing what little money I had on 3rd Strike, who the hell are you to just assume my backstory? lol Get out of here with that.

[@ericbloodsmith5161]

Bro, Industrias Lorenzo are still making the old style joysticks and buttons, they're still available at various online stores.

[@Tacos-oz6vx]

Love Sanwa…… but I will say I went to gravity buttons in my candy cab and the wife has stoped complaining she can hear me from the basement.
