Which stick to get?

[noisyturtle]

Mad Catz Tournament Edition 2 or Qanba Q4?

hitbox

in all seriousness, i'd probably get the q4 over the madcatz TE.  But probably Hori over those as well.

TE2. I always thought MC products are lame until I got one myself. My other stick is the VLX.

my TE2 is still going strong after years of use, seriously solid stick imo

best option would be to make your own. i found a decript x-arcade single player joystick for cheap at a swapmeet. i fitted it with sanwa parts and it pretty much ruled.

edit: forgot to answer your original question. i had a buddy who had that madcatz sticks and it was really keen. looks like both have sanwa parts so i'd figure it'd be better to go with what's more aesthetically pleasing. i know alot of people in the arcade community sure love that q4 though.

hitbox..

Am I crazy? i don't even see a damn joystick on the Hitbox. And the weird layout looks ripe for miss-hitting buttons.

the hitbox is superior..  but it may or may not be tournament legal, depending on tournament.

It's far more consistent than using a regular joystick,  especially for circles..

Nah man, not for me. I need something thick and hard to wrap my fingers around. Something that can really take a beating yet still responds to the gentle caress of my fingers.

Totally not deliberate.

Hitbox is objectively superior for fighters. A standard stick however has more practical uses for genres outside of fighters.

I picked up a Razer Atrox for $100 during their sale and I have been pleased with the construction. Still waiting on MS to get its act together and enable the RT LT buttons on Xbone arcade sticks.

I may mod the Atrox to accept a USB-B cable over the proprietary DIN cable.
