I really want to try out a stick for when street fighter 5 drops. Price isn't really a factor, other than the fact that I don't need anything insanely expensive yet because I don't even have a preference for any certain features yet.
The only real things I know are that I probably want more "clicky" buttons as opposed to a soft touch. I want that real feedback from the buttons so I can get a solid muscle memory thing going like playing a guitar.
What I'm asking for here is basically ANY knowledge regarding sticks that is pertinent when it comes to making a purchase, this isn't exactly something I can go ask somebody at best buy. So I don't even know what to look for.
I want to know about (but not limited to):
Button layouts and what might be best for me (I have large hands I'm about 6'5, don't know if this makes a difference
Size and weight factors (I imagine you want it heavy. Pretty sure I want it that way)
Joystick style, the ball on top vs dildo-y looken knob type
Could somebody explain what converters are, where to buy them, and how they work, I currently have a ps4, but will potentially eventually use this stick for an xbox one, and maybe even pc.
Websites that I can order from, Sticks, parts, and converters.
Aesthetics matter, I definitely want to love the way it looks because it will make me want to use it more.
So obviously I'm totally new when it comes to these things. I've been steadily getting more and more into fighting games over the past 5-6 years and really want to try this out! I know it's asking a lot, and I know most MKX players play with a pad, but these are the boards I go to and I'm sure a lot of you have sticks. So share your expertise with me and give me lots of resources (links) to go and purchase a stick! When I get it, I'll be sure to post pics and let everybody know about it. Thanks a lot!
Again. the more info the better, I literally know nothing and want to be happy with the first stick I buy since it's quite an investment!
