Review on 🕹️ HORI Switch Fighting Stick Mini: Officially Licensed By Nintendo - Enhance Your Nintendo Switch Gaming Experience by Deejay Cowan

I bought this joystick for 3 reasons: to play some switching games that are perfect for arcade controls, to play emulated arcade Playing slots on my PC, and also because I'm a bit of a curmudgeon. I bought this joystick for less than $50, and while I'd say it's a good deal, there are only a few things that really bother me about this controller. They are very minor but still bring down a star. The first problem is that the L and R buttons are set up so that the L buttons are on the right and the R buttons are on the left. I do not understand it either. The other issue is that this controller doesn't have enough weight to add weight to keep it from sliding around. If you're using it on a smooth desk it's fine, but it can slip a little on a large mouse pad like mine. I'm sure if I pry it open and stick some lead weights in it will fix it, but damn it. There's also no touch-button centering. What I mean? When you sit at the keyboard, notice the slight bulges on some keys. These are TouchType markers, they help your fingers feel the keyboard's centering and keep you in place. There is no centering on this gamepad and it's easy to mix up the controls. This can be remedied with a small dab of nail polish or glue, but it seems too cheap not to do it. Plastic that you only really see when there is direct light or reflections. But the real thing that brings this down to four stars is this: THE KEYS HAVE NO MICRO SWITCHES, ONLY THE JOYSTICK HAS MICRO SWITCHES. I'm serious? I'd easily pay an extra $20/30 for this feature, but come on, rubber dome switches? It just spoils the experience with this gamepad badly, but not enough to be a good, polished alternative to buying an expensive, pre-built combat joystick controller or building your own. games (TowerFall Ascension and Cursed Castilla EX are GREAT for this kind of controller!), just small design decisions that make absolutely no sense.
