MAYFLASH Arcade Stick F300 Elite with Sanwa Buttons and Sanwa Joysticks for Xbox Series X, PS4, PS3, Xbox One, Switch, Android, PC Windows, macOS, Steam Deck, NEOGEO Mini, SEGA MEGA Drive, Genesis

This is a great Fight stick for anyone who prefers not to use a gamepad. It works with every system , easy to setup and easy to get going with you're chosen console/pc. Comes with an octagonal gate fitted and a spare one in the box. Can be switched between D-pad and X/Y control , so easy to switch between games. Plus it's only 90 quid. Great bit of kit for those that don't want to drop 200 quid on the Pro sticks.

This is an excellent and well made arcade stick. It's very comfortable to use. The stick and buttons are super responsive. They are Japanese-made arcade quality Sanwa units and should last for many years. It seems very well built generally: solid, no nonsense construction. It comes with 4 and 8 way gates, which are easily interchangeable by removing the bottom plate. It works with a wide range of platforms: I've used it with my PC, PS4 and Switch.

Got this because I was fed up of playing guilty gear with a gamepad a messing up all my moves. After a little research this seemed to be one of the cheapest options with high quality parts.Worked right out the box on PC with no setup, feels great to use, and my word fighting games instantly became so much easier to play that I don't know how I ever managed without it

I love the original arcade games making their way onto the Nintendo Switch. But I always miss that arcade feeling of a hardcore stick with real buttons. The Mayflash F300 Elite brings actual arcade (Sanwa) controls into your home. And it’s the business. Top build quality, sturdy and a real arcade stick and buttons. Works seamlessly with the Switch and also Retropi, mac and the C64 Mini. Nemesis, R-Type and Final Fight are a dream to play on this. It’s such a thrill to actually have that genuine arcade control at home. Brilliant!!!

Excellent , I bought this after seeing an Article for C64 (Commodore Emulation) games and it being recommendedworks well for All games that require a Joystick (haven't tried it with Joytokey yet but see no reason why it would not work, all i all very pleased

To be honest, I never had arcade sticks before but I play on arcade machine before and this stick feels like the machines and is worth the money!

Nice action, I put the octagonal gate in, made it much more precise in Guilty Gear so I could finally kill some combos! Only trouble is, it’s too easy to mod - and spend more money on it!!!

I bought this for the Sanwa components on the assumption that it would guarantee the devices quality & reliability. I was elated to have found an arcade stick with sanwa components pre-installed for under £100. I am now regretting wasting my time on these F300 Elites. I have actually bought this item twice (I sent one back and got a replacement) hoping the first set of issues I faced were a one-off. The first F300 Elite I got, I sent back after less than a month because the joystick was making a weird popping sound and the buttons were phasing in and out of responding (you had to replug the cables to your DualShock pad to get it functioning again - probably a PCB issue). The arcade stick worked overall, but I see this as a quality and reliability issue. I ordered a replacement. I have had it two weeks, similar issues have occurred, which I was going to let slide and live with these - as I am gradually enjoying arcade stick gaming more & more. But something seems to have now snapped off inside the unit as I was playing it. Something metallic is rattling around inside the unit. This is ridiculous. It is marketed as Sanwa parts which would imply the highest quality arcade/ tournament grade components, but this has been the worst quality & reliability in a piece of gaming hardware I have ever experienced. To be clear, I have not abused or wrecked these arcade sticks, I have owned several Hori’s and a Mad Catz prior to this - all with no issues. I am very particular about keeping my devices well maintained. This will be my last Mayflash purchase (I do not believe it is a Sanwa issue as Sanwa is renowned for its quality & performance, and to be fair the playing experience was good while the device lasted). I am sticking with Hori from now on (which unfortunately does not come with Sanwa components pre-installed). I guess I will have to start modding to try and enjoy Sanwa parts, or, shell out the £200 plus for a Qanba Obsidian, Qanba Dragon, or, a Razer Panthera (the only other arcade sticks I know which come with Sanwa components now MadCatz went out of business). I am gutted that these F300 Elite arcade sticks have failed on me, twice, guess it was just too good to be true.Edit:I do wonder if the stick lever and buttons on this were genuinely Sanwa components due to the experience I have had with 2 units being returned. A point I bit my lip on in the original review but which I now see is a point that has been raised in other reviews. I am not sure how this got so many 5 star reviews, they are not that popular.My thanks go to Amazon for resolving the returns promptly on two occasions and helping in my quest for the perfect Arcade StickI have since bought an original Razer Panthera (for PlayStation), brand new, which comes with Sanwa parts already installed and have not had a single issue over a few years of regular use. I love it. It’s a shame they were discontinued. My next arcade stick will be a Qanba with Sanwa parts specifically for PlayStations
