- Razer has done it! or rather...they almost did it. There is so much right about this stick but there's one design point that may be a deal breaker if you travel a lot.
What do you think? Would you buy this or the Mad Catz TE2+?

This was my first stick. The good news is that you actually can change the artwork.The bad news is that it's a total pain to do so.
Sightless Senshi did you change it?
ZeroHart Not yet, but I've read up on how to do so.
Sightless Senshi I have the SFV version and would like to change the art... But it seems The only way to do it is destroying the current art
yeah I'm guessing you saw that video that shows how to... you can do it without "destroying it" but you need to be extra careful and patience with it and the risk will still be there. However you can order the parts from focus attack I believe... so even if you break it and for some reason you do like the razer original art you can print it over lol.
Yeah, you will likely fine the plexi and stuff at your focusattack/arcadeshock/paridicearcadeshop's. I am guessing that they gluded the art to the plexi?

Dude. I have this stick and switched the actuator to the Kowal 1mm oversized and kept the square gate and I absolutely love it. I also have the Hori Tekken 7 Pro with the octagon gate and Kowal actuator and I still love it even more than that. I love your channel dude
Your fight stick reviews are top notch, I always refer people to these videos when deciding to get a Razer stick
I just got mine. I played on arcades before but i never really had a fight stick. I must say. THIS FEELS SO GOD DAMN GOOD.
I have this exact stick except it's the one with SFV artwork. I love it!
Your honesty in comparing the length of the hayabusa to the panthera is what makes the world of difference in your videos, you’re a content creator I can TRUST. Thanks for being genuine!
I'm over here with a quanba drone, while I'm drooling over these fightsticks.
I'd love to see your opinion on the Qanba Obsidian or Dragon. Just got the Obsidian and love it.
Man been loving these vids
This gave me some good insight on the Panthera! Looking forward to your new videos and hope for a review on the Qanba Obsidian. =D
I just looked at my coworker and said "All over the bottom" with your expression on my face and he just about died laughing. Still has no idea why I said it.
If you want more tension in the stick, you can replace the spring in it with something tighter. If you want that Korean stick feel you can replace the stick and put an 8-gate on the bottom too. I really appreciate that Razer package their sticks with bat tops.
I think it's actually better than the TE2. Unless you want to change the artwork like once a week, it has no disadvantage when compared to the TE2+. It feels a lot more solid and the plexi feels a lot more stable. You can also get it replaced under warrant should anything go wrong.
this is very cool, they made it really easy to replace parts inside, if you want to change the buttons or the joystick.
If you want a tighter feeling stick, consider changing the spring that’s inside the stick. It’ll save you money
You should definitely do arcade stick reviews! And maybe a video about budget arcade sticks that are worth it for beginners and people who want to get the fighting game scene!
Also, collecting arcade sticks are VERY addicting. :)
Razer makes a sweet SFV version of this as well, these are $199 US on Amazon.
5:54 I think it's "clickier" because of the square gate it comes with.
I replaced the square gate with an octagonal gate and that clickiness/resistance definitely reduced, but my inputs definitely improved.
Been following your channel for a while you baited me into getting a stick I literally got this stick keen to see your thoughts about it.
you could do what a friend of mine did in his stick, he placed 2 springs inside the joysick so it was stiff as hell, the moment you let it go it bounced back to neutral super fast.
i bought this a couple months ago and changed the artwork and buttons, i love it, ive had a Madcats Te and Hori Rap kai before
I got the atrox for a few years and love it.
You may already know but just in case, be sure to update your Panthera's firmware via your PC! It lowers the input lag pretty significantly. Love your videos, my friend, keep up the great work!
how to do that, sir? Please share
Share!!!
It's been two years, man! Don't keep us waiting!
@NihongoGamer, thanks for the Razer Panthera review. I do have two questions, what is the gate on the arcade stick? Meaning is it square, circular, or octagonal gate? Also, can you tell if you are able to modify the gates?
I love it! It's so easy to customize the buttons & balltop/battop. Unfortunately it's extremely difficult to change the art. I'm sensitive to light, so you make want to cover the razer logo. I also play at night. Lol.
Panthera is the best stick i used
Perhaps you could get some arcade boards and make an entire cabinet but where do you fit everything in your apartment?
Nice, i was wondering if it was feeling the same as the madcatz, now i know i need a panthera, since getting another madcatz its nearly impossible here, thanks :D
Jaja man I live your videos!!! Greetings from Bogota, Colombia
You can mod the spring to be tighter.
I have a razer and te2+ the te gave me less issues , also you can tighten the stick spring with any Sanwa stick, you also can’t get razer replacement cables and custom cables that te2 takes cannot be taken from razer
Good to know I'm not the only one that loves to own arcade sticks!
I still have my MK Tournament Edition arcade stick. Love the padding on it.
Did you ever use it?
Good day to you. Hope you have been doıng . Never trıed ıt.
But would really want for them to make machınes dedıcated to fıghtıng games.
Thank you kındly for readıng and have a great month. Stay safe and take good care of yourself.
I have the first atrox from razer. It is well built for a first entering in arcade stick world, that beta testing on sf4 era paid off. But it got a plagued cable, as soon as warranty expired it started to fail, much in the way of Momochi's on that tournament final. The connector was proprietary and the cost for replacement was a steal. I found the damaged local, cutted it and put it to work again. As much as I think this panthera is beautiful, and maybe even improved in some ways, I'm having a hard time going for razer again.
love your videos!
I LOVE THE PANTHERA SO MUCH! It’s what I use
Judging by other videos I've seen you can replace the artwork as there are screw holes underneath the stock artwork. It's just more of a pain to remove the original due to the adhesive
heyyy, ive been watching your videos for a long time and trying to get into fighting games, finally got a razor panthera DBZ ed. as my first arcade stick, i was really lucky and got it for 100 euro what a steal, thanks for the motivation
Actually this was very helpful because I need to get another arcade stick because it’s just so mush fun when playing on an arcade stick 👍🔥👍
Glad I'm not the only one who thought the stick in his MadCatz TE2 was loose.
Weird thing is, I have a Venom/Mayflash I modded with Sanwa parts, same ones that are in the MadCatz and the stick on that feels stiffer, more like the one in your Razer, I would imagine. Maybe Sanwa just gave them a load of loose sticks...
Think I'll just swap them, maybe put a heavier spring in, to see how that works for me.
So the mayflash F500 stick can be mode using Sanwa parts? is it difficult to do...nebwie here 😅
That's cool that it comes with a bat top.
Dang, that stick is clean. I didn't even consider buying it until I watched this.
Same lol, quite pricy tho thats like 200$ excluding shipping
It's so... *_SHINY!!_*
Pantera 10's the legend comes back to life.
*i need those asmr compilations rn*
I just got one last night, my madcats te plus was worn out on the right side. I love it so far and it appears to be easier to fix should something go wrong
I'm still saving up for my first stick. Bad thing is I have no idea if they sell any sticks or spare parts over here in Indonesia.
I have a hori rap4, still getting used to it. Watching NCR and seeing how they push the panthera is making me wanna get it. Looks great. But interested to know what you think about the Qanba Obsidian? If you could review it and compare that would be awesome Nihongo. Great videos!
You should try the Qanba Obsidian. I’m curious on your take on that stick. I am also curious of how the size comparison will be between the Obsidian, mad catz, and razer
Just change the sticks spring for a higher tension one
I have both and I prefer the panthera! I like how the buttons are spaced and the joystick is a little higher which I like too lol
The replacement cable from the mad katz modular game pad pro should plug right in
You can also replace the artwork btw you just have to order a new plexiglas from focusattack or art's hobbies
Do you think you can do one in modding a Razer arcade stick to be universal one day?
Would be fascinating to see in know how that works or if it's easy
when your arcade stick is named after your favorite metal band
Sweet looking bit of kit 😉👌👍
had to buy an octagonal gate for it but I love mine!
Thanks for teaching me how to do Sakura CA
Hello, i just bought an madcatz TES+ (The Shadallo edition with grey buttons). Have you ever played on it? Any opinions? Thank you so much, great fan
Great vids! Do you know a good way to keep buttons from turning? I replaced the buttons with clear buttons with kick and punch inserts but they keep turning a little every time i play.
have you tried a stronger spring and a KOWAL actuator to reduce throw? I modded my sanwa jlf with those and it makes a world of difference imo
Damn that a21 fightstick looks sick.
You should try and get your hands on the Shika Arcade Stick for the ultimate stick. Bit pricey mind. Would love see your thoughts on it though.
by coincidence I watched a review from a year ago on this. Then fell on this lol
Man I wish i had a arcade stick like this man😭 rip broke life
you got all the sticks now, maybe with the exception of hitbox?
Which is better and cheaper between japanese ball top arcade stick or korean lever arcade stick?
How many sticks do you have what's next the viewlix, the etokki omni, the qanba dragon/obsidian/crystal?
i have the razer atrox for my xbox.
its not my favorite, but it works. i stopped using it in favor for the same stick you showed for the switch, but the ps4 version.
I have a TE2+ and my best friend has a Panthera, it's really weird but I can do stuff on mine that I can't do on the Panthera, I don't think it has anything to do with quality though, I think it's all just about what you're used to. Take it from someone who's been playing Street Fighter ever since there was a Street Fighter. *Do not change what your muscle memory has been trained on unless you see a dramatic advantage and are ready to work your butt off AGAIN.* It may be worth it but man you're gonna' carry that weight for awhile. Humility is good though. :)
Which arcade stick would you recommend for a Tekken Player? I want a really good arcade stick that responds well.
One queston: When you install the drivers, does the PC recognize as a "generic USB controller" or something else? because I'm afraid I won't be able to use the options or share button on PC.
Best overview ever lol... all over the bottom!
Question I have a razer and I wanted to know if there are specific buttons to buy or would they all work?
This is amazing I love the design!
Bought this as my second stick. My first was the HORI RAP4. The RAP4 is a solid stick, but I found myself dropping inputs on it from time to time on SFV, which does not have a high threshold for execution. Particularly on the RAP4, I found that the left/right on the stick had a minor dead zone. This made dashing someone inconsistent.
My Razer Panthera, on the other hand, is a significant step up from the RAP4, and the best controller I've ever used. It's absolutely outstanding. And of course I got the one with the SFV artwork.
You still using the same stick ?
If you want to get a tighter stick you can just change the spring to a 2lb or if you want it really tight 4lb
Man I need a stick for St fighter. I like the bat stick and concave buttons though.
I am looking into getting a Razer stick or the TFS+ with street fighter the question is can i get it to work on PC and does it work with all fighting games? I heard some have issues
Hello so one question where did you brought the razer arcade stick i been looking for it for 3 years and my luck didn't come well so you brought it like which website or store is like in the U.S. or another country like I don't know how can you tell PLZ, oh and I do love arcade stick controllers like back in the days also your videos so im subscribe it.
I bet this bad boy is expensive af! We have a Razor store here in San Francisco and it's expensive af in that store lol
make a video about entry level arcade sticks or best budget arcade sticks.
really wanted to transition to stick from keyboard
Mayflash with Sanwa buttons is good and is even fit for mobile phone by a usb-c cable 100€. Yeah
Hi, which do you prefer, the Hayabusa for switch or the panthera? Im starting to want one of these for my Switch and it seems that the panthera could be a nice option as well.
I can honestly say I like both equally but I’m just more used to the the sanwa stick now :) I prefer the sanwa buttons tho.
Can you change the artwork in the Razer? Seems fixed.
Looks like a good fight stick
I've had a Razer Atrox for the Xbox 360 for a couple of years now, and it's a very nice stick. This seems to be a follow-up to it, which is very nice indeed. I might get one of these at some point. ^^
Is your Atrox still working? what about the cable?
Still working fine to this date, no problems with the cable. Have at least some 4-500 hours with it by now.
Sunesen the atrox already had a follow up which is the atrox for xbox one, I'm pretty sure the atrox (XB1) is identical to the panthera except for the console that you can play it on
Got this stick on Black Friday from Gamestop for a hundred bucks. Mostly picked it up because it's the best deal I'd ever get for a stick like that.
Nice vid, I really wish there was as much choice with Fightpads as sticks
Eastyy Yeah it irritates me. Like everyone speaks grand things about how good the Saturn controller was for fohting games. And yet nobody has ever done anything as good. The closest is the Fighting Commander. Yet its bulky and just totally misses the point. I just wish someone would make a thin, button-silicone-pcb, wide and precise 8 way directional pad just like the Saturn Pad. All these new pads have so much space from the outer button to the actual PCB and so have a ton of material needed to get input. That's why the Saturn pad is beloved. Because its the closest thing to not pushing buttons at all and just sending signals to the game.
I had the fighting commander, but not a fan of the cross style D-pad I much prefer a floating D-pad
you can buy as many arcade sticks as you like they always come with sanwa jlf joystick and sanwa buttons (exept hori) so no use trying to compare how diffrent they are as the only diffrence is the box and not the components.
Try review the lower end sticks like nygacn please
Love the video!
LIke how many Fight sticks do you have @NihongoGamer?
Does the driver on PC also work with the Razer Atrox Xbox One stick?
Would you know where you can get a replacement cable
Considering 1 of these 2: Panthera or Obsidian. Any suggestions?
I have a question for nihongo, do you think a fighting stick/pack would be better in a 3D fighting game like dragon ball xenoverse or 2/2.5 d games like street fighter?
If you want your stick to feel different you should just change the tension spring and the restrictor gate inside, or just try changing to a korean level
Either way it's still cheaper than buying an entirely new stick that also uses sanwa JLF since it's gonna feel the same anyway
How do you feel about the space under the buttons? Right now I have a RAP V stick, but my wrist hangs uncomfortably off of the edge because my hands are large. Do you think this one is better for people with large hands?
First comment on your channel so exciting ! I am a french fan so sry if I make misakes ^^ I also got a Penthera and I wonder if you are gonna buy some buttons on it because I will very soon and I dont know if you like to see the stick with nothing or with some little change on the balltop and/or the buttons ? Continue your amazing work and see you :)
I’m addicted to mods so I’ll probably change a few things here and there
I'm happy about it ty ! ^^
