For an arcade controller maker on its second product, the FIGHTSTICK's selling point is the player feedback baked into its layout, and the company is backing that claim with trial units at five venues.

HJK GAMING will release the HJK FIGHTSTICK arcade controller in early December at $249.99, with a $20 discount during a limited first pre-order run. It supports PC and Nintendo Switch 2/Switch. The 12-button layout adds four buttons to the VEWLIX layout and was set after surveying dozens of pro players, including Eita and NL.
The chassis is angled at 2 degrees, measures 439 x 258 x 62.8 mm excluding the lever, and opens on a damper-type mechanism when the front latch is released, so the board and internals can be serviced without disassembly tricks. A multifunction display handles still images and GIFs, and the RGB lighting is configurable.
The lever is a Sanwa Denshi model. The buttons are HJK GAMING's own HJKB-30, with hot-swappable switches that accept commercially available low-profile parts. Button assignments and display content are set through a dedicated web configuration tool, and unused buttons can be removed and their holes capped to cut misinputs. HJK GAMING says it has confirmed operation on PS5 using some converters.
