The Thrill of the Game

This upgraded arcade joystick from 8Bitdo has the retro aesthetic and Bluetooth connectivity of the original FC30, with Sanwa switches for faster, more accurate performance. Consider it a childhood favorite all grown up—the joystick moves with a satisfying click, eight oversized buttons can be mapped to whatever you want, and the built-in CPU promises lag-free wireless data transfer. The FC30 has multi-mode support for Windows, Mac OS, Android, iOS, and even Raspberry Pi, and works beautifully with everything from MAME Emulator and Neo Geo to Mega Drive and Super Nintendo.

Note: At checkout you will have the option to purchase either the FC30 Sanwa Version or the FC30 Standard Version (- $20). The FC30 Sanwa version is limited to 100 units and the FC30 Standard version is limited to 15 units.

Construction & Features

The FC30’s solid build quality is complete with four rubber feet, which protect surfaces from scratches and help your controller stay put when the game gets intense. LED indicators show when Bluetooth has paired successfully, and a 6-foot USB cable is stowed away in a side compartment for when you’d rather connect to a device directly. Finally, the joystick is firmware upgradable for future function expansion.

Superior Sanwa

Smaller than American joysticks, Japanese joysticks like Sanwa require less wrist work for response, allowing you to input motions with greater speed and comfort. Of these, Sanwa joysticks are among the most responsive, making piano inputs and kara throws easier than ever. They’re also excellent at returning to neutral. While lower-quality alternatives may snap back too quickly in the opposite direction—or, on the other end of the spectrum, require you to manually move them back to neutral—Sanwa sticks need just to be let go. In games like Street Fighter, which can be won and lost in one or two frames, Sanwa makes all the difference.
