Sanwa Details: Most cases work except DInput

Updated from 5 to 4 stars because it turns out that DInput is not supported. I spent over a couple of hours trying to figure this out and contacted support as well. But it was only confirmed that it doesn't work. Input mode does not work as advertised as 100% compatible. I hope they can fix the firmware update. Tested working: PS4 with Console Mode: DOA5LRSwitch with Console Mode: Tetris Puyopuyo, Pokken, IkarugaPC (Steam) with XInput Mode: Tetris Puyopuyo, Tekken 7, Soul Calibur 6PC (Steam Link) with Console Mode: Soul Calibur 6PC (Steam Link) with DInput -Mode: Soul Calibur 6 Doesn't work with all settings (XInput, DInput, PS4) PC (Steam with any mode): DOA5LR (only supports DInput I believe) PC (Steam Link) with XInput mode: Soul Calibur 6== = =Steam link note It doesn't work with XInput, but it works with console mode and DInput. Requires controller setup in Steam Link settings. I'm not sure what the difference is between console mode and DInput, but both worked. Confirmed to work: Soul Calibur 6 with consoe and DInput mode. Confirmed it doesn't work: DOA5LR (This may be a game-side issue) ==== This is the F500 price ($89.99) for the F300 features ($54.97). . But it comes with Sanwa parts. So if you are planning to replace Sanwa parts. You don't have to have anything to do with it. I supported almost all modern slot machines. I think this is the cheapest arcade joystick with sanwa parts. It is different from F300 and newer and no firmware update is required to support Switch. A tip for the gate limiter plate to set up the Sanwa lever. I would recommend buying the following parts. Sanwa GT -Y Octagonal Restrictor Plate for JLF Joysticks https://www.amazon.com/SANWA-GT-Y-Octagonal-Restrictor-Joysticks/dp/B06VVG936T/ The original part is a 4/8-way switch. If you're using a regular 8-way game, the octagonal gates above are much better than the 4/8 gates. If you play 4-sided games (Puyo Puyo, Tetris, etc.), use the original plate and change the setting to 4-sided. It's much easier than the 8-side setup for 4-side games. With a screwdriver, it may take 5-10 minutes. I don't like point 2, but it's not a big problem. 1) Price I hope it's in the $75 range. Since the F300 does not require any original spare parts.2) Exterior color green-grey. Looks really old device even new. I just prefer solid black or some other color, but overall it's a great machine. You can use most slot machines and don't have to exchange for Sanwa parts. Well I bought 4 units of this model. 2 for 8 uses. 2 for 4-way use.
