Hello everyone! Hope everyones having a good time

I just recently bought a mayflash f300 stick (loving it so far) and i was planning to upgrade the buttons just to get a feel of what upgrading a stick feels like however...

Is it just me? Or for some reason the mayflash's default start button looks smaller in size than its standard blue buttons?

I was wondering if ever im going to buy premium buttons (e.g. sanwa), will it fit the start button hole? Or is there a different sanwa button model dedicated to it? If so, what model is it?

thanks everyone!! <33

I played on pad controllers only and I mostly used the analog stick with occasional dpad inputs. Since I mostly used the analog stick I thought I might as well try an arcade stick so I bought a Mayflash F101 since it was cheap ro see if I liked it. Any tips for transitioning from dpad to arcade stick?

As title states, I usually play Tekken in a dimly lit room. I got tired of hitting the turbo button unintentionally so I put a piece of vinyl tape on me share button so I can reset the practice mode by feel. Deleted original post because of extra picture.

I'm going to be building a new fightstick in the not so distant future. I'm considering getting metallic buttons for this stick and I'm wondering what people's experiences are with each type of metallic button. I've heard iffy things about the 202s with paint flaking off and buttons sticking, I've heard the tabs on the Sanwa's break faster than the non-metalic buttons, and I've heard issues with the Gravities having bad ping, and self actuating in some cases. Anyone here have any input on these options? If I don't go for Metallic buttons I will likely go with translucent buttons instead.

Still deciding on a name tho

Earlier this year one of the most trusted suppliers of arcade parts seem to randomly close and left most of us having to import from Mainland Europe which can get pricey.

Last week while I was doing my monthly check to see if Arcade World had come back I stumbled in to a forum to see a new start up advertising themselves.

So I reached out to their sales email about getting a specific thing, which they didn't have but it started a back and forth conversation. I did order a new Sanwa JLX which was shipped out next day and arrived two working days later. I also have some springs and actuators on order.

The person I spoke to, Andrew was very personable, and has said he will try and order some of the things I want from their supplier in Japan.

If your UK based and looking to buy parts definitely give these guys a look. It's a significant saving offer paying postage fees from France.

If you don't see what you want give their sales folks a email.

I did ask about the Otto V5 although not sure if that is something we stock, but the more of you that ask might change their minds.

I can’t find seem to find brown buttons anywhere, is there any way of obtaining them if not is there a way to customize a arcade button to make them brown??

Just launched on Etsy today after weeks of design tests to get it perfect.

An extender for the Haute42/Cosmox S-series leverless controller to give it the same footprint as the larger T-series pads, making it much more comfortable for lap play and giving you a larger area to rest your hands/wrists while playing your favourite fighting games.

The extender sandwiches between the 2 rear layers of the S-series pad build, adding 1mm to the overall thickness. Each purchase includes 6 new longer screws to enable better fitment of the S-to-T extender.

NOTE: The extender allows access to the top USB-C and right hand USB-A port (with full access for larger adapters such as the Brook Wingman FgC) but blocks access to the left hand USB0-C post of the S-series controller.

(UK based vendor, meaning lower postage costs to UK and EU customers)

If you could pick one leaving price out of it what would you pick?

Managed to buy a nice Korean edition etokki Omni recently for a good price.

Problem is I play Japanese lever and want to use my trusty Sanwa JLF but the problem is the Brook board installed in my stick needs a 5 pin adapter from my JLF.

I found the part I needed on etokki.com, but after waiting nearly a month I had to raise an issue with PayPal and get refunded since they never once acknowledged my order. I don't know what's going on with etokki but now I'm in a pickle as I can't find the cable I need anywhere else and I just don't have the money to buy a new board like a Brook UFB Fusion.

Does anyone know of a place where this cable can be found, or does someone have one they'd sell? Or does it look like a board replacement down the line, cheers.

just got a ps5 and i wanna use my tes+ for games like tekken 8

Guys, is there a bagpack for Mayflash f700 elite or similar?

my anatomy is weird and my arms are like Lanky kong from Dk64. I've been on stick for 7 months with a mayflash f500 with sanwa parts and I realized my discomfort lies in orientation.

The lever and face buttons are too close together and this ergonomically effects my hand posture and creates discomfort.

Can anyone recommend a fightstick which has more distance between the lever and face buttons? I've recently gone back to pad to circumvent aforementioned discomfort, but i'd like to continue playing fighters on stick,.

Thanks much

hello! ive been wanting ti buy a fight stick ever since I've started to watch more and more competitive tournaments for games like guilty gear and tekken, and I was wondering if there was any cheap sticks i should buy preferably around 50-100$ maybe cheaper if it's possible

Could anybody point me in the direction of Haute42 u16 keycap stl files?

Hey all!

I have recently noticed that my 8bitdo switch version arcade stick is unfortunately having issues registering the down-left diagonal. After some testing, I noticed it happens when I try to go to down-left from the down position. All the other diagonals register perfectly fine but for that one specifically, I have to really pull hard on the lever or move it a bit towards the up direction for the diagonal to register.

My first thought was replacing the lever altogether but I could not find replacement parts in my country and shipping would take quite some time and extra money. So I took it apart...hoping an idea would pop up on how to diy a fix haha

I thought about putting some thin paper on the switches so they get actioned sooner by the lever but idk if that would really help.

Please I would be very grateful for any ideas as the stick is currently in pieces on my desk and I'm urging for some fighting action xD

Hi all I could use some help,

I’ve had a brook xb board for some years but it’s suddenly started registering L1 as L2 in fighting games.

I checked on the firmware and config programs and it activated whenever pressed but in game it’s treating L1 as if it’s the L2 button.

Any advice on what I should do?

Does anyone know what the pinout is for the Mayflash f500 connector? I was wanting to do a detachable USB mod but cant find anything
