Review on ๐Ÿ•น๏ธ 8Bitdo Arcade Stick: Optimal Gaming Experience for Switch & Windows by Rashan Jimenez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Incredibly durable "wireless " arcade joystick

Although I own a Switch console, the main reason I bought this arcade joystick was to play Street Fighter V and Mortal Kombat on PC. I already have a good arcade stick, but I was fed up with the long cable and was looking for a wireless option for a long time. Spring. I think my search is over. Using the dongle that came with the joystick, I was able to easily connect my computer to the arcade joystick. Plug the dongle into the USB port and it will connect! no fuss at all. I believe it recognizes the flash drive as an Xbox 360 controller on a PC. And I was able to play both games without changing anything. I haven't checked the Bluetooth connection yet, but I doubt I'll have any problems with the front panel. The arcade joystick itself is very durable. I like that it really has some weight. The sticks and buttons feel clicky and responsive. They don't feel cheap like many arcade sticks that cost around $50. All in all it looks like a very good cane that can withstand some abuse for years, although I can't say for sure yet. In general I am very satisfied with the purchase. I had high hopes as this is an 8bitdo controller and they usually make some high quality controllers and I think they did a great job with this. Highly recommended! (I will update this review in the future if there are any issues)
