Why would anyone actually play with this particular version of this hitbox? This thing is a work of art! It’s beautiful display piece!❤️
It is a work of art, but how long could you stare at it and not want to play on it. Haha. Either way, as long as you’re enjoying it.
I bought two of the chun ones. First one had input issues were it would hold an input or do it almost rapidly by itself. Sent it back to Amazon and the replacement had the exact same problem after an hour. My Victrix fs 12 hasn’t failed me yet tho
honestly was intrigued by the faceplate but when I checked for the damage it's just way too expensive. Even the standard black is still $450 sans shipping in my currency.
It is prohibitively expensive indeed
Just bought mine for 279 euro from Amazon Spain.
I play on PS5 only. I love this thing. Kind of took a gamble on it, not knowing if I would like leverless. I'd probably be happy with the victrix as well, if i had gone that route.
I’m just happy that you’re happy with purchase. I love the Victrix obviously, but carrying around that Kitsune seems like so much less work. Haha. Thanks for the comment and support, and keep pressing them buttons.
as someone who pre ordred the thing I can firmly say that I love mine and would spend 300 on another one if mine broke somehow. The buttons are burrery smooth and are just the right ammout of weight. The overall size was just right for my hands and for the first time I dont feel cramped on a leverless. I also thing another positive about it is that it was made by razer so I know it wont be left out to dry and will be supported for a good time. The native ps 5 compatability is fantastic and razer says they are going to make a softwere update so it can run on ps 4, tho for right now I just use a brook dongle for ps 4 locals. Overall I'd give it a 9/10 bc most of my main complaints are cosmetic. If you have the cash and thing it looks good I recomend it whole heartedly.
tell me from your experience, this thing will not worst a hit box with Sanwa buttons? I play on a PC, use a keyboard, but I want to play with friends on PS5 and an off line tournament, one of my friends assembled a hit box with Sanwa buttons, I don’t want to bother like that
I like products from Reiser for their design
@@marcusblade7896 sanwa buttons are real arcade buttons, the kitsune has razer optical switches which have a very different feel. their longevity in comparison with real arcade buttons is also impressive. i'd take the kitsune and its optical switches any day over something with sanwas
The Kitsune is great! 👍 I treated myself to an early Birthday present last month and somehow managed to get a limited-time deal on Amazon, so I bought it for £273. I have no regrets as I only play at home on my PS5. I love it so much that I haven't touched my old Hori FS3 arcade stick since getting it.
There are very few PS5-licensed leverless options out there at the moment. Compared to the Victrix Pro FS-12's size and price, the Kitsune ticked all the boxes for me. It's lightweight, extremely portable, and comfortable to play on for extended hours. When I'm done, I slip it into a laptop case and park it on my bookshelf until the next session, which is great because the last thing I need in a small room is another controller that is as big as the PS5 itself.
The only real negative for me is the finger magnet finish (I have the plain black version). However, I usually play late at night in a dark room, so I never see the smudges anyway. 😊
Excellent comment my friend. I’m really glad you’re enjoying your Kitsune. Keep pressing them buttons! 💪🙏💯
Looked at this but too expensive for what it is, bought the Haute42 f16. Great product. Button club pls do a review.
I definitely have my eyes on it and want to try one and review it. Thanks for the comment. Enjoy pressing them buttons!
I play on pc and bought one randomly 3 weeks ago. I fuckin love this thing! Super comfortable and my inputs are way cleaner. Very fun and satisfying to play on. My only gripe is I wish the buttons/optical switches had lighting of some sort. 9/10
Yas! This has taken my fighting game from 0 - 100......real quick!
@@IceColdProfessional Leverless is the way!
I question the price because most lever based pads are bigger (and have more material) with the same or more buttons. So why do these leverless cost the same or more in some cases?
I got the Chun-Li edition and it looks really pretty, but there's a bit of wear and tear after awhile around the buttons. Hope they release the skins as sell alone soon.
Check out MightySkins.com they sell skins for them. You can even customize it
No merch store? By the way I bought the Victrix thanks to your review. It's awesome. First ever fight stick for and I decided to go the Quality route. Pricey but worth every penny.
Thanks so much for the support! Glad you enjoy the channel and found your first stick through us. The merch store should be connected to our RUclips and below the videos but it’s also linked directly on linktree.ee/buttonclubfgc
good evening many congratulations for the video my friend I would like to ask where I can find buttons for this particular hit box because I have bought it here in Greece and if they sell it somewhere so I can have spare parts thank you very much
Thank you so much for your comment and support, you’re too kind. If you’re looking for different buttons caps, you can use the ones from Punk Workshop. They have their own website, and you can also order them from Amazon. And if you ever want to change the switches, just make sure you get the same type of low profile switch. Depending on what you get, you might need different caps. I’ve even seen people 3D print their own button caps. I hope this helps. Thanks again for the support. Keep pressing them buttons.
@@ButtonClubFGC thank you so much for everything i will look into it i follow you all the time because i am a street fighter fan. keep up the very nice work
Which is better, Hori Fighting Stick Alpha or Razer Kitsune?
The hori fighting stick alpha have travel time “because of the stick”
Since the kitsune have buttons instead of a stick, there will be less travel time and will be faster. And there are a lot more benefits. The kitsune is better imo. But play what is comfortable for you, and fun is also important.
“Sorry my English sux”
This is the one i bought the other day abit of a challenge learning a leveless controller and learning Street Fighter 6 but fun
Yeah just don't give up,your muscle memory will get used to it don't worry
@@iKON지못미 yeah I was letting my son have a go he's 10 and he started doing some of the specials after 10 minutes lol
Yea I played sf6 on a ps5 controller for a couple months. Probably took me a little less than 2 weeks to get back to where I was with the dual sense. Way less missed inputs now too
The optical switches are problematic. Mine was doing multiple inputs because dust and sand are blown into it. We live nearby by a beach.
That was one of my main concerns too. You can swap out the switches to mechanical ones though thankfully. -Alysha
Thanks for the review. I noticed on my unit that after only playing it on my lap it started to bend slightly. Is this competing you or others can confirm with their units?
Can’t say we have had any problems with this- how hard are you playing?!
Not particularly I'd say. I found the Kitsune to not seem too sturdy but I do not know if bending is an issue with my specific unit.@@ButtonClubFGC
is there anywhere i can buy the aluminum top plate?
Not that I know of
Leverless controllers are the future for fighting games I'm old school so I prefer joystick but these are really cool and I do out of all the fights that companies that are out there trust with all my heart is razor I never had a problem with their sticks I was a fight stick enthusiast so I always bought different sticks but in my personal opinion they were always the best even above the TE2 + It was always neck and neck between those two and I love both of them dearly I had a special place in my heart for hori but truly hori sucks Definitely will recommend people to by this leverless controller
Does this thing have a headphone jack?
No it does not, and now that I’m thinking about it, the only lever-less controller to have a headphone jack is the Victrix.
My previous post was for another channel lol
360p gang
its not on 360p,its on 1080p and below,check your youtube settings
@@iKON지못미 That means when you watch an upload so early the HD copy is still encoding lol
i dont know why they went for cammy and chun li and they stopped there,i dont like female charachters i would have preferred 1 male and 1 female atleast
That’s my feelings exactly. They should’ve done a Ryu and Chun Li. Maybe there will be more on the future. Thanks for the comment and support.
