I’ve really liked hitbox controllers for Street Fighter 6. I’ve been really happy with how they’ve turned out and they’re a joy to use. If there’s interest I can post the build process/instructions/guide.
Also would be good to grow the community if you’re interested: !arcadesticks@lemmy.world
The down button is used constantly and used with the directions to input quarter circle motions etc for special moves. It would be very awkward to have down under the thumb. Up should be used much more cautiously and purposefully.
Other layouts are possible and some people find the WASD layout more comfortable. Some even end up using keyboard buttons for the left hand in WASD layout with arcade buttons on the right (a.k.a. mixbox).
The person commenting above you seems surprised by this “all button” design, but this is becoming very popular for its precision compared to stick or controller. And it’s no different using WASD keys to walk around in an FPS game rather than using an analog stick on a controller. If you play fighting games I’d highly recommend trying a leverless controller like this.

From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it’s gaming you can probably discuss it here!

That’s a great explanation from you, as well as from @j_p_. Thanks you two, understood a bit more about these controllers.
