Mad Catz The Authentic EGO Arcade Fight Stick for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC (Windows Direct and X-Input),Black

The Madcatz EGO is a great arcade fight stick. The convenience of having an arcade stick that works for multiple platforms really adds value. Works with my PS4/5, Xbox One/Series X, Nintendo Switch and PC. The one thing you should know is that if you want it to work with the PS5, you have connect the arcade stick to the PS5 and have the stick also connected with a synced up PS4 controller, which they provide the cable for. The same situation has to be done as well on the Xbox Series X|S with using a Xbox controller with a micro USB port. Build quality is nice, and so are the Sanwa buttons and joystick. I fully recommend this product if you’re looking for a universal stick with high build quality and on a budget.

I am giving this fight stick a 5 star rating simply because of how compatible it is with different systems and being great for top down games like Diablo IV and 2d side scrolling games. It also works great with Street Fighter 6 MK 11 dead or alive 6 and soul caliber. The only problem I had to solve was needing an XBOX ONE controller or a PS4 controller. Note needing a PS4 controller essentially makes this fight stick useless with the PS5. Everything else is great about this fight stick I love mine. P.S this is my first fight stick purchase.

I'm really happy with the build quality of the stick. The biggest knock I've seen is that the stick is a rebranded model of some other stick from China, but that stick costs around the same (actually, I see it for more usually). The only drawback is having to plug in a PS4 controller to it to play on console, but I play pretty much on PC nowadays anyway so it's not a big deal. UPDATE: 2024 This stick is still going strong. With the Brooks Wingman FGC I'm able to use it with PS5 no problem without needing the controller dongle. I still appreciate the weight and size of it.

Light, good construction, comfortable on my lap and possibly most important, versatile. Most sticks can't be used for so many different things, PS4, PC, etc. Compatibility level YES.

Comments will say it works but it’s a pain in the ass. For starters it’s not wireless. No Bluetooth in 2023. You will be dealing with a cord whenever you use it. Second, as you probably read in other comments it doesn’t just plug in an work in consoles at all. So don’t expect it to work out of box. Yes it technically -can- connect to PS5 and Xbox but since it’s not plug and play for either of them the process is kind of convoluted and doesn’t work for some people. And you’re going to have cords everywhere. Third, it’s extremely heavy. Like not something you’d want in your lap for hours. So if you live somewhere that you have to pay to return it, expect to pay a lot.

Let me start by saying I have alot of respect for madcatz contribution to the gaming communites. I was given a mad catz sf4 fight stick. I replaced the stick and buttons. I have been playing fighting games for years. I purchased this stick for my pc and ps4. In the description it says it comes with an 8 gate but after I got the stick I knew it wasn't and I ordered the 8 gate. This fight stick is not easy to disassemble the first time. There is another metal plate under the top plate. I understand it's purpose but it is a pain to unscrew. The screws for the bottom plate on the left side have nuts and no thread for the holes but the other side does(!?) After I replaced the 4 GATE I put it back together only hand tightening the lower plate screws. Now the top is boss because you can modify the top with whatever design you'd like because the top part is clear. The functionality of the fight stick is really nice and I'm honestly very happy with my purchase. Remember to get that 8 gate! Thanks a bunch and I hope this review helps

great and sturdy but extremely heavy definitely worth its value in spades..

This particular fight stick isnt the worst. i purchased it when i decided to take on fighting games a little more seriously, and have racked up more then 100 hours of use on this thing, and enough experience to give you the ups and downs. this stick is STURDY. atleast thats the impression I got when i received it. its got a good heft to it, so its certainly not going to move around on you during use. i used this thing on a variety of different games, the primary being tekken 7, the button inputs are very sensitive, needing nearly no pressure for the input, making long repetitive strings easy, but you may get some miss inputs during faster more complicated combos. the stick itself is mediocre. goodluck getting clean quarter or half circle inputs without having to do some funky back to neutral inputs between each point in the movement. (for the likes of games like street fighter, blazblue, and guilty gear) this unit is okay overall. i personally will likely look for a new replacement, but for a first stick this thing is fine. not to mention it has some room for aftermarket modifications.

A bit thick but only because im not used to sticks like these. Despite that, its a great controller. I swapped the limiter on the lever to an octagon shaped one to make inputs like quarter circles easier to input.

i have purchased 2 sticks and in this price i would say its free. love it best quality, highly recommended

Controle grande e pesado, com peças Sanwa, para quem vai jogar só no PC, não quer comprar controle artesanal, e não quer pagar imposto, e nem esperar 1 mes, esse é o controle, ele é facil de fazer mod para colocar a placa brook universal depois caso queira, é só soldar uns fios no painel.

Buena opción para los que quieren empezar a usar este tipo de control

Lastima que tengas que conectar un control para la consola que juegues solo le falta que sea plug and play
