I’m getting back into fighting games! And I don’t want to wear out my gamepads or joycons, so can you recommend a good control stick?

A few criteria:

  • Wireless would be ideal
  • Compatible with PC mainly, but Switch and Playstation would be excellent too.
  • I’m mainly into BlazBlue and Injustice right now, not sure if that would affect my choices.

The 8BitDo stick has been pleasant to use, and is compatible with a ton of systems. Why is it banned at tournaments? Wireless? Or something else non-standard about it?

Wireless. While players should be unpairing any controllers prior to their matches, sometimes they don’t and a third party can wirelessly interfere (intentionally or not) with a match.

That makes sense, thanks!
