I play umvc3 tekken and ssf4 on mine…but admittedly I like tekken more
reading the specs and general features alone, i think korean sticks will not work well in shmups. haha.
but being a virtua fighter player, im curious to see how well this performs on that game too.
Korean sticks work great for VF surprisingly. I use Akira and you can really be sloppy with your inputs & buffers from crouch with a korean stick whereas japanese sticks require you to be precise.
I threw on VF4FT (which IMO has stricter inputs than VF5FS) and i was doing Akiras (from 1P), 64P+G, 8/2P+K, which switches you to 2P side, then buffer a DBPL that hits their feet right before they hit the floor. When i was switched to the 2P side to buffer the DBPL, i can sloppily buffer it as a motion as 33654P and it comes out every time.
Another test was launcher (33P, JF Knee) P, 46P, DBPL on middleweights. Again, easy lazy buffer… 1P side, 11456P. Crazy enough, i was shocked i could minami step even though the stick doesnt have a gate and the restriction is gummy.
This was done on a Crown CWJ-303N.
Finally got the chance to actually use my joystick in gameplay and they perform the same if not a tad bit better than the old Crown CWJ 303 sticks imo.
I’ve been playing Guilty Gear with mine. No issues with dashing whatsoever with this thing. It has the just amount of the tension for the short throw/engage it has. I feel like my left hand execution is better with it, like I can parry whatever the world throws at me.
But I can’t.
how did you…what?
How do these new-style joysticks feel with the Sanwa shaft-swap mod? I understand that’s the only way you can “get” a balltop version of this joystick.
I liked seeing pictures of those gated-microswitches in this stick. I still think they’re a part of why the Seimitsu joysticks have certain advantages over the JLF’s.
This isn’t that bad for Street Fighter. I am adjusting since I only have one stick right now but I think I’ll do alright with this.
Whats the main problem or thing you are having to adjust to when using this stick for Street Fighter?
My guess would the the absence of a gate.
Yah, the square to octo gate adjustment and just general feel of the stick. Randomly walked back few times when I wanted to down-back during matches haha.
Cuz the crown has a metal flaps that bends onto the switch so I feel like I have to force a bit more when pushing the lever to hit the switch. It’s just a personal thing lol. On the sanwas it’s just a bit more sensitive but it doesn’t feel like it neutrals as fast as this. I’m still experimenting but it’s not a hindrance for me at all. I like it.
Speaking from coming from Seimitsu to Fantas, my gripe was finding diagonals on demand.
I played Chun and Rufus when I first got mine, and finding d/f was difficult. Id end up with sweep for chun and j.mk with rufus far too often. The lack of a gate is troublesome when you’re used to one.
Once you practice with it some, you’re ok.

The angles feel good. You don’t have to push the stick until you hit the side. There is a sweet spot you can hit with a slight motion. It’s great for EWGF and JFSR. Still working on back/wave dashing.

think you can post a couple pictures? im gonna put the crown stick in my scv stick as well.
Got mine. Kinda hard to hit diagonals from neutral. Otherwise cool stick.
I was talking about what I thought was that game’s lack of a home port…
are you running it on an emulator?
It gets easier. Becomes muscle memory after a while.

It might just be me, but because the throw is restricted by the joystick hole opening, I’m liking this much more than the CWJ-303N or Fanta.
