Is there a “best” fightstick out there right now?
Hi Latinooooo,
there is no best Arcade Stick out there, you should flip through thisthread. It covers most of the basics and your questions. Additional take a look at slagcoin - this website covers lots about Arcade Stick building, but you can get a ton of information out of it.
Thanks! Helped alot.
For me the best stick is the Hori RAP Premium VLX, because of solid build and quality parts (sanwa)
It’s all preferences. There are no best stick. Hori VLX is good and so is the Madcatz TE.
There are also some nice custom sticks that many built.
I prefer custom stick since you can build it the way you like it.
If you like American style sticks, you can’t go wrong with a Mas stick. They’re amazing 
That’s fucking epic.
Haha, I should bust it out more often, only use it to play old beat em ups.
Forwarding this to Chris Hansen.
Comes down to personal preference! Clockw0rk is beastly so I gotta say http://www.projectgiantsword.com/ sticks!
Some people like large Sticks with alot of weight, others like their sticks small very light and portable.
Some like a easy on the wrist very light tension on there joystick, and some whats a very stiff joystick.
There people who swear by Japanese, American or Korean style parts. And these those who like a mix.
With my time here on SRK, I seen so many different preferences I almost can’t believe it.
It is like if we all go to Baskin Robbins for ice cream, I am sure one of each of those 31 flavors will be sold.
Do not go for the most popular flavor of ice cream, do not try flavors others till tell you to get, go for the flavor that would fit your taste the most. The same would apply with Joysticks.
Nice, repping the oldskool Voltech. I always loved your Pedo stick 
I agree wholeheartedly. I bought a TE only to play on an American stick and fall in love with it. I like my TE, but I’m so much more comfortable with my Mas.
