Review: Solid - Great replacement for my Madcatz PS4/PS5 TE, which had developed an issue with dropped inputs. It's literally the same part the stick ships with and is a like-for-like swap.
Review: arcade joystick - read reviews and sanwa are meant to be top quality. i have a tabletop arcade machine and the player 1 joystick wasnt always reacting the way it should. A bit nervous about taking game apart to get to the faulty joystick. no worries as it was a case of removing 2 pozzie screws and pull out electrical connectors ( like a car ) new joystic fitted perfectly and now i can get back to playing defender , galaxian , phoenix , gorf , moon cresta , astro blaster and more . This new joystick feels more sturdy and clicky than the original

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value, well worth the upgrade.
*by P***Y on 3 December 2020*

I upgraded my bartop from the standard default stick to this and there is a huge difference in terms of quality. The responsiveness is brilliant. I didn't think the difference would be this much I was initially concerned of fakes as this was so cheap at £16 but the genuine markings are there to be seen and this is clearly the genuine item. Great value and I am looking forward to upgrading to sanwa buttons now too.
