That, will it work on Snes, Mame, and Neo Geo emulators(Speaking of that do games like King of fighters 2003, Mark of wolves, Metal Slugs, etc... work yet?) I am guessing most Mame games work(Pacman, and other classics)

I hope it does.... :-/

i dont see why it shouldnt, seems to be picked up as a classic controller according to the info

 

[Taleweaver]

Well...it says "Classic Controller compatible". So I guess it is really a classic controller that is shaped a bit different than normal.
I know Tantric's emulators support the classic controller. But to be sure, I'd check out the status on sdlmame and neogeo emulators (I guess the neogeo and arcade VC already support it...but that's not saying much about the emulators).

I know its a different stick but the Tatsunoko Vs Capcom (madkatz version) works perfectly fine with the emualtors I've tried (Mame, Wiiengine etc).

Well it should but I'm sure you can find a cheaper one in case it doesn't?

Alright, I grabbed that one for 35 shipped, read online its better then the Hori(Go figure madcatz being better, when the hell did that happen?)

It is much better than the hori stick! The 6 button layout works perfect for SF2 on mame.

..and yeah it is strange that madkatz actualy produce decent sticks now! lol I've got the TE SSFIV stick on my 360 and its an amazing peice of kit.

I have this stick and it does *not* work with Wii emulators. There is, apparently, a bug in the libwiigui or devkitpro (iirc) and pads that aren't explicitly the classic controller do not work. It's annoying, but it is what it is

 

[spardasieg]

Hmm so for some it works for...others not?

Read this thread:

3rd party joystick support is broken in newer versions of various emulators, but if someone acutally has it working in the newer revs of SNES and Gen emulators, I'd love to hear how they did it!

What version of Mame are you running that it works? I got the stick and am tired of just letting it sit there haha...

Tantrics Snes and Nes emu's work fine with the TvC stick (I've not updated to his recent releases yet though to try them but the previous revision is fine), same goes for wii mame. I've not tried the neogeo emu with the stick yet though? I just tried GenplusGX with the sticks and although they work fine on the emulator menu screen for rom selection, config options etc but for some reason it doesn't work in-game? Obviously all VC games work fine too.

I've got two TvC sticks (seeing as they are such a bargain right now) and they both work great on 0.5 and 0.6 of wii mame (just configure the buttons within the emulator to get the 6 buttons working). The only buttons on the stick that don't seem to work for that emu are start and select but these work fine on the wiimote which is attached to the sticks anyway.

Also don't forget on the TvC stick there is a button to toggle between analogue and digital.. maybe this is an option you haven't tried to get it to work?

 

[Ergo]

If I had to guess, it's the toggle between analog and digital that allows the TvC stick to work w/o (most) issues--the Hori, sadly, has no such switch.

Hi,
I recompiled latest versions of Snes9x, FCE Ultra GX, Frodo and GenGX with my testing routine for the Hori Fight Arcade Stick. (modified libogc)
The main problem was, that the stick has an analog range from -89 to 0 and it has the same ID as the Classic controller. It sends min 0, cal 32, and max 64.
This is more perfect than any classic Cal-data could be. (i hope so) Now, in every cycle the routine is testing for this values. If they are true THEN Hori stick and if they are false THEN Classic Controller + Standard calibration routine.
After a sleepless night with coffee and DevKit, it is working now.

Have a good night!
