About /r/fightsticks

Our server was started by the administrators of the r/fightsticks subreddit in 2018. We've had years of history, and the people who visit our server have a wide range of knowledge and expertise covering arcade style controllers and other cons used for fighting games. No matter whether you are a beginner or an expert, come join us and discuss your projects! Whether you're trying to make a game controller out of a shoebox with a minimal budget, trying to troubleshoot a Haute42 leverless unit, trying to buy something ready-made, or trying to build a high quality boutique custom unit, we invite you to come ask questions and participate in our group. We also have an active off-topic community. If you're looking for an FGC-adjacent place to share memes, movies or music recommendations, we have spaces for that too.
