HORI Fighting Stick Mini for PS5, PS4, and PC - Officially Licensed by Sony

This is my first time ever buying a fighting stick. I recently downloaded a few platform games on my PS5 and wanted to try out a joy stick/fighting pad just for the fun of it. This fighting stick is dope. Never owned another so I can't compare but the quality and ease of use on this device is phenomenal. The buttons feel great and the whole unit is if good quality. joy stick is very responsive. However since it is so small there's a few cons. First, if you're playing on your lap, the unit will slide very easily due to its minuscule weight. Secondly, as I play on the PS5, there is no touch pad or a button you can use to access menus that touch pad provides on PS5 games. If a game you're playing requires you to press the touch pad to access it, you will have to connect your regular controller to gain access, and then switch back to the fighting stick to continue playing. A bit annoying but simple to get around. In summary, the construction, color and materials used are top notch. Literally plug and play. Super lightweight. I would recommend it to any beginners like myself that aren't looking to break the bank for a once in a while use of a fighting stick.

Fair advisory this is absolutely tiny! Especially for adult sized hand. Great for small hands, portability and on the GO, and children just learning how to play arcade games , platformers and even Fighting games. Please disregard another user's complaints about non compatibility in games , that user listed games that "need" 2 thumbsticks for camera and character movement. I played SF6 with this , an entire session of Celeste , tested Hollow Knight , and the Messenger. Perfect for shootemups , beatemups , platformers , metroidvanias , fighters , and all manners of arcade style games. Square gate joysticks , but no missed inputs in cardinal directions and angles , all 8 inputs registered perfect and immediate , actuation of buttons where perfect and responsive and satisfying. Even I with large hands did not feel cramped or inhibited movement.

This is a quality arcade stick for it’s price. It’s a good option for starters using an arcade stick for the first time; to see if you like or not. However, experienced users may be disappointed. It functions and it’s responsive. The cord is pretty lengthy if you need some distance, but the downsides are: it’s not designed for customizability, and it’s small size lacks a space to rest your hand, putting strain on your wrist and making it uncomfortable to play on your lap for long periods of time. The most comfortable, ergonomically way for me to play this on my lap is to rest the arcade stick about 45 degrees on my knee with a pillow resting underneath my wrist. It’s a weird position to play, but most comfortable. Some reviews say is comfortable to play on a desk, but I haven’t tried this method. There’s a touchpad button, but no “touch”pad. Reviews complaining about the lack of a touch pad should be ignored. It’s obvious on the images and description that there’s no touch pad functionality, so if that was a huge concern, they shouldn’t have purchased it in the first place.

Dude my cousin got so pissed I got good at tekken with this he refuses to buy one and is like just taking ass whoopins but aye who am I to tell him what to do, all those years of butt whoopins I got in video games the turn tables now

I bought this as a "travel stick" for work trips to use with a steam deck to play primarily Street Fighter 6. While the size is perfect (it's like a larger paperback with a stick on it), it's just too light for use for 2d fighters like that. With many stick inputs even just a dash the whole case will tip to the side, even if it's grounded on a table or other surface. There's no way you would play with this in your lap like a normal stick. That said I'm giving it three stars because the joystick itself is kinda nice. I have another larger hori stick and they do make good parts. It might be OK if you just want a small controller for indie games or something, but even then I would recommend a larger size and look at the qanba drone or even that new 8bitdo maybe, which are both small but not this small.

It looks and feels amazing, the stick is responsive, buttons are smooth, and it's everything I was hoping for. I was worried about the compact design at first, but it's the perfect size to fit on my small desk space and feels great.

It is a GREAT entry level/budget arcade stick for fighting games. Ive had it for about a year now im doing my review late Im doing many all at once, Ill leave a video with me using it as well.

The 1 Star is honestly just a review of Amazon as a whole, and not of the product. I had nowhere else to make this grievance complaint at the moment. I got this at the 'Used - Like New' offer from Amazon since I wanted to get it as an entry level gift for a family member. I am glad I took the time to test it out because it was not registering at all on my PC or my cousin's. We tried every troubleshooting method, and it was pointless. Why have a product put back for resale if you never test it at all. Overall just inconvenient, and the only solutions Amazon offered was to check out the HORI website for troubleshooting, or to return it for a full refund, which means some other unlucky Amazon customer is going to get this product and get disappointed all over.

In working condition.

Highly recommended!

Bien protegido, buen producto pero debería de ser circular y no cuadrada la base para que el joystick agarre mejor

Ottimo prodotto ad essere pignoli se la manetta fosse stata un pelino più alta sarebbe stato perfetto

Mis felicitaciones a hori, en cuanto a la relación de precio y calidad, es excelente. Un consejo para los usuarios que usen este producto para juegos de lucha, úsenlo en 5 fotogramas de la play y aumentará su calidad aún más.
