I don’t have an arcade stick or even a Playstation, but always stop in to watch and support the channel! Looks retro and i like it!
Smooth jazz and modding 👌
You’re so informative ! I love that you didn’t edit it to make it short. I’m new to modding and seeing it step by step no edit cuts is super helpful ! Thank you
Looks clean! Hard to go wrong with Astro City. Nice job.
Thank you so much for the inspiration and the links!
You are the best made this so easy! Specially the artwork thanks for the guide my stick looks exactly how I wanted it to
I've heard online that the Seimitsu LS-32 and the LS-40 are the two gold standard arcade sticks in most Japanese arcade cabinets. The 32 debuted in the original Street Fighter 2 arcade and is seen as being a better option for fighting games, and the LS-40 is the original Neo Geo arcade stick, and most say it's a little better for shmups, although most agree that both sticks can really do great with all games. I got the LS-40 in my Hori Alpha and I really like it. I'm a big Magical Drop fan so I wanted that original Neo Geo stick, plus I mostly play shmups anymore over fighting games. Also I got the Seimitsu Lemon Yellow ball and I love it!
I missed mine to Crown 202s and added a 2lb tension spring with an oversized actuator it feels so much nicer !
thanks man , very nice video with perfect details about where to get all the stuff ,keep up the good work.
Love the color scheme of the buttons to new artwork.
hey, thanks for the video. the default stick was to loose for me and making me go crazy, so i swapped it out for the very same one you got and much prefer it. thanks again.
Thank you! This vid helped me swap my new sticks' buttons nice and clean!
Saved this while awaiting my order from Focus Attack today. Thank you for settling my first arcade stick mod anxiety lmao
I broke two buttons trying to take them apart from the wire. Shit is fucking unbelievable
loved this project!
1.57 - I prefer to do one button a time, it’s easier…. 8.47 - ripping all buttons out 😂 ….great video, loved it. (Ordered a Hori stick after watching this…)
Thank you for the video, I have the same stick and tool kit, this made it very easy to following allowing. The operation was a success! 😅
This was really chill to watch. i ha e the streetfighter edition and may replace my artwork
GG Briar, joysticks are cool
Se podria instalar a este arcade stick un stick marca sanwa???
Thank you for this video! I knew it was waaayyyy too hard to take off the art cover. I almost broke it thinking it'll just pop off lol.
GREAT VIDEO!!!,can you please show a video changing the joystick spring for a 6 lbs one,thanks
I want to change the buttons on mine to pink but I’m scared to break it 😢
So it's not perfect but a lot better. I neatly zip tied the power cable around the cable holder, and I used a USB extension cable, and now it has a detachable cable.
I love it looks great it's always fun to mod something, whether it's a hit box or arcade stick loving the green and pink .
Really helpful video, thanks!
make more videos like these, these videos are comfy
I dont know how you do it so fast, I've been spending 3 hours now trying to get these cables off and I got still 3 cables to go lol
I try the same but I don't get the cables removed. 😅 Can you explain it for me? I know you have to push such small lock thingy down but I don't want to push too hard
A proper Sega Astro arcade stick with a proper Sega layout! Keep the real arcade panels alive!
1:04 whoa he made the stick disappear and then reappear from off camera. MAGIC. On another note, there is a SF6 version of this stick available for pre-order now, LETS GOOOOO
Hello someone can tell me which brands and model of buttons can fit inside this stick with no issues?
Real question. How did you get the screws to fit in the middle joystick holes so easily? They are unthreaded.
Hi, I really enjoyed this video and I was inspired to add an ls-32 to my personal Fighting Stick Alpha...
Can you please let me know if you used the same screws that were securing the original Hayabusa stick to secure the ls-32 on the center holes to the mounting plate?
I'm having the toughest time trying to turn these screws that came off of the stick.
Thanks, really appreciate any help or advice on this!
-Pete
same issue and figured it out somehow from TaiWan channel's instruction, you have to do the tapping (create the thread for your screw to screw in )by M4 size
That's great!
Sorry I didn't see your response from awhile back, can you tell me his channel name?
I think I understand from you you said, but to see him do it would be great.
nice mod!! looks great!
I think the yellow ball is the way to go. Looks awesome.
So clean!!
Looks nice. Good job
Hey I got the same lever as you did in the video but when screwing in the lever it doesn't sit tight as it does in the video,
Any help?
Bought one of these in January 2023 and it worked well until this month (November 2023)
It starting turning on by itself if left plugged in and now while playing its starting to disconnect and reconnect randomly
How did you get the screw in the center hole of the joystick mount? Mine aren't threaded so I can't screw them in.
Nice and detailed tutorial but I've got a few quick questions for you, if you don't mind.....
How come you didn't go with a Sanwa Joystick to match the Buttons.....What made you choose a Seimitsu stick instead ??
Also, does the Seimitsu stick have an Octagonal or Square Gate (if I'm right in saying, the Alpha comes with a Square Gate, Yes !?).....Which type do you prefer and why ??
!! Thanks in Advance !!
I cant pull the clips off of the buttons so that i can remove them. Im pulling on them but it wont come off. What am i not doing?
Awesome video and great upgrades. How easy do you think it'd be to gut that casing and rehouse everything in a new box? Kinda scary to buy this for $200 and then tear into it so this vid helps a lot!
If you're gonna mount the hardware to a different box then you might as well buy the individual components as new so you can get better parts for less money and not waste the case
@@PunzL how do you make it ps5 compatible?
@@Itslewcario the alpha is compatible with ps5 out of the box.
200$+ is worth it and they last along time
If you just play fighting games then the stick and buttons are totally fine out of the box for me. But I’ve noticed that playing shmups you can’t get those very fine, precise movements, so I was thinking about replacing the arcade stick with the LS-32, the one in this vid.
Great video!! Please tell me if this arcade stick can have LED lights in it. I'd truly appreciate it.
could you send a link of the screwdrivers you used while modding your fighting stick
or name them
try getting a korean top on the stick part
What are the measurements for the artwork, please? I have the XBox Series X Hori Fighting Stick Alpha and was looking to change the artwork.
Is it possible to remove the PCB board and wiring and then transfer it over to an old arcade joystick that I love😅 so it would work on PS5? Thanks. (Basically not wanting the externals and taking out the internals.)
How can I just change the ball top on that?
Were those 2 middle holes for the joystick mounting bracket actually threaded on yours? Mine don't seem to be threaded at all. Just bought a Seimitsu stick and can't even mount it...
can you recommend another compatible joystick @Briar Rabbit?
Just got this stick, and it's going to buy my first time modding. Couple questions, what size are the buttons? I bought a restrictor gate looooong time ago for an old may flash, it says sanwa, if i want to use that, id need a sanwa lever right?
Or does hori make restrictor gates?
The buttons are 32 for the action buttons and 24 for the top right
I want to get a sawna stick the same size as the stick this came with I like it alot.
What type of Hayabusa stick is this, I can't find any info anywhere
Can I easily replace the square gate with octagonal gate? Or do I have to order a whole new stick
so if a seimitsu can fit in this then definitely a crown 309Mj can also fit in this right?
Good video the charlie brown music got to me after a while.
Just ordered your exact same set up you made it look so easy.
does knee lever compatible with this stick?
im about to get this stick ... hella expensive in my country and i already have one ! but im SO TEMPTED
I’m a regular controller player, but your video super good, very interesting 😊
Bro how the hell is he getting the button clips off so easy? Mine won’t budge an inch
What is advantage about choosing Seimistsu's stick over the other brands, thanks.
hello, is 30mm the size of all buttons?
Did the 2 screws hold the stick in place ok??
Thanking you for this video 1 love
Can I put a Korean lever in one of these?
Is possible to mod the lever to samwa?
Can fanta fit the Alpha?
Hello, never modded a stick before but love to try. Can anyone here tell me how to look for a lever that is compatible with the hori alpha? Or is it universal?
Hori Alpha Stick for XBOX
I have a question. I want buy Hori Alpha Stick for my XBOX, and put CardiMod WASD instead of lever, but there is originally 6 pin connector connected to 5 pin lever. Somebody maybe know that is it work like normal 5 pin conector? I just wanna put CardiMod WASD on this but I am not sure that fit here, maybe somebody here made it before on this stick. I saw that some ppl did it on PS5 version of that stick but I am not sure that will work the same on Hori Alpha for XBOX.
the astro city cabs p1 is all green and p2 is all pink
This or wait for the new Qanba Obsidian 2?
Amazing video
but, SANJUKS V6 lever is it compatible with Hori alpha ??
I cannot get the ball top to come off... edit: needed a bigger screw driver lol
Great in-depth video !!
I have a quick question for you.....Basically, I have an idea for the design I want for my Xbox Series-X Version of the Hori Alpha-A Fight Stick BUT I don't know where to start or how to go about getting it made at-all.....If you can give me any advice or help it would be Very Much Appreciated !?!?
How did you find out which sticks are compatible with this, I want the Evo stick but don't wanna drop 60 bucks if it isn't
I like hori's button, the stick is not bad either I feel like your downgrading and not upgrading when you change the parts, but that's just me
Hori is definitely not the best stick or buttons. They known for feeling too mushy. Like if u press a button 4 times in a row without lookin u dnt feel each press.
@@TheWon23kid same for me, I feel it's too mushy I am missing my combo timings. Or perhaps just my rusty fingers 😁
The buttons on mine feel great, the stick was bad though. A lot of dead space, long time to return to neutral. 4 dollar fix, I put in a 4lb spring and a 2mm steel actuator. No problems now, took a month to acclimate to a stiffer stick though. But damn near no dead space and almost immediate return to neutral
@@coutiya2007I swapped the gate and went to a heavier spring on my RAP4. Felt loads better... and then like 3 months later, I bought a Hitbox lol.
Hi, i have a question, this Seimitsu LS-32 will fit on my Razer Panthera EVO? Regards.
thanks for the video! what is the size of the metal plate? thank you :D
Hi thanks for doing this video. How would you know what joystick will be suitable for your own fight stick?
Hi, did you have enough clearance for installing Seimitsu LS-32 on the alpha?
Is SEIMITSU SEL-70X-01 compatible with Hori Alpha?
Very spiffy ol’ chap
This video was very informative and helpful, but I did have a question regarding the buttons. This will be my very first fight stick and I planned on modding it. What size are the buttons on the stick? I'm looking to purchase some Sanwa buttons but I see they offer 24 and 30 mm buttons. What would be the correct size to use for this stick?
30mm. That's the standard size for most Fightsticks. More common to see 24mm in leverless style controllers like hitbox. Have fun!
@@BriarRabbit Ok so all I would need are the 3o mm then. Thank you for much for your help. I'm excited to customize my stick now.
Do sanwa sticks fit in this ?
Yes. They do
I wanna do that to an xbox stick. I have a dreamcast stick where I customized it to look like an astro city theme arcade stick...
Thanks
I am considering the Nacon Daija for my Series X as well as the Hori. Any opinions.
@Serge Thank you for all of the information... Definitely above and beyond. 👍
You did mention the Korean sticks... how about a little more input on those... please and thank you.
@Serge lol, I know how it is to talk about a passion. I appreciate everything. Thanks again. 😊
I will place my order today.
@@Magneto-Serge I will
@@Magneto-Serge see you in the finals. 👍
@@Magneto-Serge I love the Hori Arcade Stick. Best purchase I have made in a while.
💪😎👍
Is compatible with the PS3?
It's missing the Sega logo.
Oh how i enjoy watching guys who so clearly have never worked a day in their lives with actual tools figure out backwards ass ways to accomplish things.
The stick is AWFUL! I still use my Hori Fighting Edge (PS3) on my Series-X with a Wingman2 XB because the stick is great, but stuck when it comes to Fony PayStation (wish I had never bought a PS5, utter trash!) but not much choice when it comes to Fony PissStation 5 when playing PS5 exclusives like DNF. Ordered the Seimitsu 40th anniversary edition and can’t wait to fit it.
Thanks for the informative video, haven’t missed a stick in years.
Thanks for this!
Just replaced my stick with a Sanwa JLF with your help.
The screws holding down my Hori stick were wayyy over-tightened. I almost stripped one of them.
I have a cable mod video on my channel for the Hori fighting stick Alpha, feel free to take the idea and run with it, your channel would reach way more eyes
Not really an upgrade bc the hori parts are not worse than seimitsu or sanwa. Just different. I havent modded any of my sticks. So i have sanwa, hayabusa sticks and the wireless 8bitdo which i upgrade once the no name parts are degrading. Of course i enjoy your modding video nevertheless.
I have been reading the same, but have no real world experience. Do you own any of these arcade sticks? I was considering the Nacon Daija for my Series X as well. I am looking for opinions.
I guess it's a upgrade for someone dosent like a lose joystick like sanwa or Hayabusa.
@@donaldduck119 I own this hori stick for Xbox. Got an atrox and several other sanwa sticks. Also a hori rap v.
@@ninetendopesaitama2107 Just got my Hori stick in the mail... I am enjoying it very much. Thank you for the information you provided.
If I’m spending $250 for an arcade stick I’m not wasting more money to modify it lol
I did just this. I’m having fun though.
Did anybody else notice that Briar Rabbit is color blind? He thought the red cable was orange. That aside, I love the astro design for this stick. I almost want to buy it just to do this mod.
Hori's hayabusa lever and hayabusa buttons suck. The hayabusa lever is way too loose and the hayabusa buttons are oversensitive. I would stick with either sanwa or seimitsu arcade parts.
wow... this usb cable is really THE WEAKNESS of this joystick !!
why NO detablabe cable is.... beyond me....
The music was too loud & irregular/distracting. 👎
