- ******Mixbox sent me this controller to unbox! They didn't require that I say anything specific, all opinions in this video are my own :) *******
Would YOU use a controller like this? Is it the first time you've seen such a thing? Let me know in the comments!!
Mixbox wants to let you know that their website is mixboxarcade [dot] com. I’ve never used the site myself, I was sent the product directly for unboxing :)
This is for cassuals, the good players use DK Bongos.
samba di amigo
Guitar hero controller
Atari 2600 1 Burton joystick
the spin controller :P
Godot Trite nes exercise/dance mat
As someone who plays fighting games on a keyboard, this is my dream controller.
PH's Replays Thanks!!
Hey mixbox Do you make them with the keys on the right side and the buttons on the left? I kind of play weird :/
The right one will be lanuched in the coming months !
My hero!
thats the one i need xd im used to moving with the right hand on keyboard when playing fighting games
Being Mexican this reminds me of people who played KOF and SF most of our younger days on emulators and they got to be even better on a keyboard than on a arcade stick x'D and we did that 'cause around here there's not so much money for videogames, it's good to know we're not the only ones that experienced this ...
I was a keyboard user until I got my first stick. So this really appeals to me.
Thanks BrownieKuma72 !
Loooo i still play on my keyboard. Would love this over hitbox
Kanade Sora Awesome!!
Why not just stay on keyboard, im having a hard time figuring out what the mix box offers better than just using a keyboard. You can map the button layout to be exactly like the layout on the buttons of the mix box. Exept for the angle tho
9Calavera6 I still do at times. It's just that I was influenced by friends to switch to a stick because I believed it would be better for me.
Hitbox and this mixbox are the way to go for anyone that wants super fast and accurate inputs. I have used a hitbox for 5 years now and can never go back to stick or pad. It's worth every penny
Did the post office kick that box to your house?
lol I collected it from the post office and walked home with it so the box got squished
I cannot stop laughing at this comment
Keyboards and arcade sticks should be put together just like how a controller has a D'pad and an analog. 🎮
You need to do Zangief's CA during a Jump, Forward Dash, or Forward Knee for it to come out. The way you were doing it, it wouldn't have came out no matter what you would've done.
yvespandora In simpler terms, it needs a buffer. That's fine anyway considering using ANY CA practically requires some setup, like a combo or bait, IE an input.
yvespandora Yep, raw(standing) 720 is very hard to execute. Even more on this controller
Never got to do a 720 at all. I'm glad they got rid of the other ridiculous commands like the delta command.
that makes a lot of sense and explains to me why I'm terrible at full circles, actually I'm gonna go input kokonoe's astral after an attack rather than raw now.....
But in hitbox, you don’t have to buffer. Standing 720s baby. Too bad gief sucks
welp Razer gonna do this next and you know the Razer thing *RGB* all over on all the things! rad video man this is very new & interesting
I hope so
iRAWkTheWorld well being Razer it will be 300+ or so
They've already done an arcade stick, which has no RGBs tho
Execution on keyboard is SOOO much easier than with a stick. People complain that its too easy, and some are saying sticks like Hitbox and Mixbox should be banned.
yeah.. most people who use sticks cant transfer over to hitbox because its not "easier" its different" it might be easier for a FPS PC player to go to hitbox than an arcade stick when they first start fighting games. But its not easier.
I remember spooky saying the "korean backdash" on hitbox was cheap. I'd like to see him do it. within 30 seconds he would take his hand off the movement buttons and shake his wrist. trust me. its not easy. So take that thumb and stick it up your ass.
YES !!! i love this stick, Why not call this a MUGEN Stick :p Played Mugen so much with keyboard ;) Cool video !
Wicked Gamer & Collector Thanks for the comment!
Do you guys make flipped versions? I play MUGEN with keypad 1/2/3/5 as my directions and asd/zxc for my buttons and I'd be pretty interested in a MUGEN-pad, haha.
Much better name/association than Games for Windows Fighter 4
William Smith its a bit harder to do 360s, but much easier to do half circles
I use WASD for movement and Insert, Home, Pgup, Delete, End, and pgdown for my attacks.
I find these are really good for charge characters like Guile because you can hold back or down during combos so much easier.
As a kid growing up China, my friends and I mostly played fighting games on emulators, because arcades were for delinquents lol.
As a Mexican person, I can confirm that we Mexicans slightly prefer SF on an emulator rather than arcade
This is the controller I want to play Tekken 7!! I know the stick is convenient to play with but as a keyboard user this is appealing to me.
I. NEED. THIS!
I can't use Arcade Sticks but I love the buttons.
I am very proficient in fighting games when I use the keyboard for movement but it's a bit crowded for it's action buttons.
THIS IS THE BEST SOLUTION I'VE SEEN~!
WHERE WHERE~!!!!
So get a Hitbox controller then
I would love to see this getting play at next EVO
Douchebag Dragon 2 who ever would it be would be a legend.. but I can see this is really good for tekken 7 😎
I hope the input isn't slower.
mark jan blanca Wavedash would feel awkward on that mixbox.
well, if anyone can win with this, it will be guaranteed sponsorship
Ya it's like when Luffy use PS1 controller to win EVO
I've played SF4 on a keyboard for a really long time, and I am a gief player on it.
So what I do is that I jump in the air and do the first full-circle in the air and then do the other full-circle as I land, this helps me pull off the CA.
Sumair Baloch Every Gief knows a jump is a good place to buffer that, but that takes a long time, which renders you punishable (jumping is already bad in Street Fighter) and makes your intent to do the CA very telegraphed as well so even if they don’t try to punish your jump directly they can avoid it. Can you buffer it out of step dash with WASD? out of V-skill? It’s not a good case for WASD that arcade sticks and controller pads can reasonably do these things but WASD can’t. I learned fighting games on keyboard and liked it then but moved later to Hitbox, and I’m just sayin’, Hitbox can do standing 720’s in 4 frames 😏.
Dont know if anybody already commented this but the way I did 720° on keyboard is I would put my finger horizontaly on the arow keys and then just spin it around. Works like charm once you get used to it. :)
Lol I remember playing with my siblings in the same manner. One person on one part of the keyboard and the other on the opposite side. XD And we had to take turns.
glad it wasn't only me!
The dark age hit many of us...
Yeah me too was a lot of fun though
The best part is that it only uses keyboard style keys for movement. Keyboard keys for attacks are terrible.
Did that with N64 emulators back in the day
This is exactly what I was looking for.
Kvng Scarab Thanks!
I need this. I use my keyboard for tekken and a fighting stick mini for the attack buttons. This just puts the buttons i use perfectly.
As primarily a keyboard player that also uses stick, I'm glad this exists, I had thoughts about this recently wishing it was a thing because I like the arcade buttons for attack inputs because of its responsiveness but find it more comfortable to use keyboard for movement and special/directional input. I might actually buy this or a second version they release. Great video!
thanks gunblenotrstf!
I actually would totally play with this. The stick part of arcade sticks is always what drove me back to pad, but this removes that.
You’re really lucky that you get sent stuff like that for free. I live in a 3rd world country where that mixbox costs 12,500 of our countries currency. Since I was a kid I have been fascinated by the way arcade sticks are made and how they work and the general feel they give you when you press them and use them. But as I grew older the arcade community here grew smaller and smaller. Til there were only a handful of arcades left. I saves up my allowance for three (3) years for me to be able to buy a PS4. And an additional 5 months to buy Street Fighter 5. But it still doesn’t feel the same as playing in an arcade. The way you feel when you press the buttons of the controller aren’t like the way you feel when you press the buttons of an arcade stick. You’re really lucky and I really do envy you. Well, sad(?) story aside, I really do love your content and hope that you would continuously grow, both your channel and you as a person in general.
if there have been any samurai's in the joystick arcade gaming community today, mister nihongogamer would have lost his head for this betrayal.
you need to buffer zangief's super from another move. it will never come out the way you're doing it because he'll always jump. And you don't need to do a full circle for his SPD. a 225 degree motion is enough
I used to play SFEX2+ on PC with PS1 emulators. To do the 720 supers on the ground (Gief and Darun Mister, for example), you need to buffer them into something.
For example, jump forward, do the first 360 in the air, then do the second 360 when the character is landing, and as the character lands, do the final up+P. Or do HK, and while the HK is recovering, do the 720. The thing is, you have to avoid jumping while inputting the command.
Other thing that I used to do on VanPri was instead of doing a 360 with Lilith, I used to do forward, back, down, and up+Punch.
I've got it. And as long as you're used to keyboard movement, there is no need for adjustment for the left hand. You're just immediately good to go
i use guitar hero controller
I use rockband drums
You ain't a real G if you don't use the DK Bongos with a GameCube to USB converter
I use the pistol
I-no main?
pff noobs, I use a flight stick and I dont even press the buttons
love the clicking noises all around
I’ve always desired a stick like this, genuinely thought I’d never find one and would have to make one myself.
This would help my execution so much while also still keeping dashes easy. Currently playing on pad but the D-pad is still not quite enough.
I used to put hours in M.U.G.E.N. a lot back in the day so this is ny dream controler
U can't execute the CA with Zangief while standing. You need to buffer it in a dash, jump or other moves.
The feature in keyboards that let's you press as many keys as you want at once is called n-key rollover, in case you where wondering. Most gaming keyboards have 0-key rollover these days.
Years of pc fighters and emulators make this quite an interesting idea. I'd imagine this saves a lot of strain that using, say, the numpad would
This is badass. This is the only way I would go back to playing on a fight stick.
I love it. Played kof, sfa and mugen on keyboard for years when I still didn't have a stick. I won't have any problems using it.
As a PC master race guy, THIS is literally the controller of my dreams.
Pretty much only Desk can do a standing 720° CA, so don’t feel bad. Otherwise, as I’m sure someone already mentioned, it’s almost always a buffer.
Usually two circles we've been doing from jump - you can't jump during jump - so jump up or into the opponent and start spinning before hitting the ground.
a reason why most ppl who uses keyboard prefer WASD over the arrow keys is for that exact same reason 6:44 the placement of WASD is way more easy to press W for mid finger as it is on a kinda diagonal placement above S and A, they should've of fallow up that layout instead of arrow keys and they would've of hit the mark with it.
I used to play so many arcade games like this on emulators. King of fighters 98/2000, metal slug, garou mark of the wolf, samurai showdown. Oh the memories :)
Double SPD shortcut command is
Back> Down> Forward> Back> Down> Forward> Up + Punch
I actually built one of these in 2017 using an old Gateway keyboard and an Xbox One controller.
Keyboards have been able to make 10+ inputs at a time for years now, so that is not a factor. The term for the limited number of inputs was called Ghosting BTW.
I quickly tried WASD on one hand and fightstick buttons on the other in DBFZ and it felt great. Although, being able to play at an angle with two devices helped. I agree that the Mixbox's layout doesn't seem all that comfortable.
It would be really interesting to see you play marvel vs capcom infinite and dbfz with that thing!
dbzf probably works wonders with this. like u could probably super short cut the instant air dashes, to where the air dash looks like u are on the ground still. which is scary fast rush down mixups or instant overhead lol.
I'm a keyboard user when I use fighting games, but I'm used to playing with the direction buttons on the right, so even though I like this, it's a no go.
Same thing here, I really don't know why they don't make right handed arcade sticks
Elivanse you can buy arcade sticks with the joystick on the other side, they're just not very common.
And they must cost a ton more
Elivanse, you mean left handed arcade sticks, the correct handed (XD j/k), the right handed people use the left hand on the stick and the right on the buttons, if the stick is on the right, we cross the arms , i've played on a few arcades were the arcade was on the other side, i was weird.
The right one will be launched in the coming months!
Using Keyboard to do Zangief's super is the same as what you would do when using a controller or arcade stick. You need to either come from a jump or cancel into it. That's the basic. Funny part in all of this is that once you get the hang of the double 360 degree, It's so much faster to use out of nowhere than using a Stick or The controller this is base on my experience since I use stick, controller and keyboard depending on what version of a fighting game I have available.
If this works without the delay issue of some Keyboards this is good.
Mix Box looks awesome! Who needs computer keyboards for PC gaming when you got a Mix Box?
Dustin Nunn thanks!
the uppercut shortcut was a thing back in SF4, you double tap the bottom corner and it will read it as a DP input
this controllers work wonders with most fighting games due to the nature of how skills are programmed. They are detected as up, downs, left/right, angles etc. The only problem are skills like the ones that require 360 degree rotations like Zangief's pile driver, but you get used to it after a while.
I love playing most games using the keyboard than controllers (fighting games) for me, WASD keys are way more responsive than any stick or regular controller.
UselessInnovations cool!
I play fighting games on my PC and this is just amazing!
Leo Rick Aldana thanks!
I had just heard about this recently and I think it’s cool that you’re showing it off
I would love a fighting stick that also feature keyboard buttons wasd and keypad number one to six as when i play tekken some characters movements for certain combos are easier for me with keyboard buttons but also have a joy stick on it as well
Best way to buffer Zangiefs CA is either with jump in, forward dash or forward MK. Using the animation to do the double circles and then pressing the punch button when the animations are over.
I love the focus you’ve been doing on Fighting games lately. 👍
Man this stick is actually pretty cool. I just wish the directional pad and buttons were swapped. I got so used to using my right hand for directional inputs and my left hand for button inputs. Especially on emulators back in my middle school days on Kawaks when playing Marvel and Alpha 2.
Would totally pay good money for a reversed edition.
Shadaloo Vile right one Will be lanuched soon!
Mixbox Arcade Oh shit, I wasn't expecting y'all to reply! Well in that case I'll be definitely looking forward to that release!
Shadaloo Vile They got it released pretty recently. Go check their website now!
Yeah. I use this because I can now control movement with 3 fingers instead of 2 fingers or just the thumb.
Feels faster and more precise
I used to play on keyboard. My layout is a, s, d for left, down, right and spacebar for jump, works great for fighting games.
YES I NEED THIS
I am a keyboard player and find it to be a very good peripheral when it comes down to my preference,
And I would like to use it when playing on other platforms
Did anyone else tap on their keyboard direction keys as he was doing it... I did heehee.
This thing tho. I want one.... screw it, I'm getting one ^_^
to do 720 motions on arrow keys consistentely you need to buffer them with a light attack.
eg. s.lp > 720
it makes for a decent mixup on hit i guess, but its hard to find set ups for it that arent completely predictable or easily punished.
i think if you gonna do the full spin you have to press right+right down+down+down left+left+left up+up, you get idea you have to take account for the diagonal directions
TERMINATOR-CPR right, he'd have to do a piano motion in which he sustains the last pressed key while he presses the next one down and only then let go of the first.
Actually you can just jump and have the last input pressed the moment you land. I used to do this for Goku's super in Hyper Dimension since it's a full circle too (but just one, not two) and I played everything on keyboard too.
Both the wasd and spacebar (hitbox) layout are good. It’s just the ring finger executions
John Bon Dacasin haha I've been a keyboard fgc player for a while... The ring finger is literally ass. It took forever to get it's dexterity up!
Good job on this showcase. I also had to use the key board as a kid with my little
brother when playing multi player games. I play mugen on a laptop and very much
enjoy using WSAD for movement and UIOJKL for the rest. Well done on this video.
I started fighting games on the keyboard through Melty Blood Act Cadenza and this might be a walk down memory lane for me if I get one of these.
For the question for the piledriver imput buffering, I think you can go like you'd go with Tager on Blazblue, using a non jump cancelable normal to buffer the directional imputs for the critical art lol.
Just a guess though, I'm a total noob when it comes to SFV, just know about the buffering thing cause Bullet apparently is a thing in Blazblue Centralfiction rip.
Dream controller for a keyboard player. Only if the arrow buttons were on right side as they are in a keyboard
Thanks for showing me. These shortcuts will come in handy for Akuma combos in Tekken 7. I'm excited I can not wait to get one.
Good Layout ! Thanks for showing it
I think you can shortcut the spinning piledriver, but just holding down back, then tapping up forward .
As soon as I found out that Decapre is going to be a charge character, I started to learn ZXC-spacebar instead of WSAD. Down-up charge is much easier on hitbox because you don't even need to untap 2 to perform flashkick/psychosting/spinning bird kick. Same about superjumps for C.Viper and everybody in Guilty Gear and all other healthy anime fighting games
Also, I have difficulties inputting 360 on both keyboard and hitbox. But on PC keyboard you have a legitimate cheat that allows to input 360 and 720 by holding back+down and tapping up+forward 2 or 3 times respectively (no SOCD cleaner on keyboard, pressing back + forward equals not neutral but forward on keyboard). Yet still on Hitbox it is easier to input 720 motion because of 4 fingers used for 4 buttons. 720 is impossible to perform in neutral stance, you will always jump instead - you need to cancel into Gief's CA from any action, for example - jump, block, or heavy kick recovery frames.
I think if you're a zangief player, you probably should just stick with a joystick. The keyboard button layout seems more practical for basically everything except doing circles, and especially two circles.
To do Final Atomic Buster on keyboard, try to start jumping forward, do the first circle in the air and finish the second circle on the ground. This helps a LOT!!!
I would love it, I've played a lot of SFIV as cody and I didnt had money to buy an arcade stick so What I used to do was WASD for directions and numpad 123456 for attacks, it worked out wonders for me, since that time I've played no way other than his on PC fighting games.
The 3 keyboard keys not being able to be pressed at the same time is something called "Ghosting", most "gaming" keyboards will nowadays have an anti-ghosting feature that finally lets you press more than 3 keys simultaneously and enjoy your emulators as a struggling kid not spoiled by expensive sticks and consoles ! :P
As someone who used to play Elsword a lot, this looks perfect for me. Elsword is an sidescroll mmo that have a git gud to win pvp, its the hardest fighting game I played.
Fuuuuuuq! I must get this. I need it yesterday. I've been watching this video over and over. Now I must sell my body so I can get this stickless arcade stick in my life!!
If this is gonna be used, they need to address the lack of input register on down+fwd.
It's like ghosting problems in keyboards.
And yes, as someone who did MUGEN before, I've used mech keyboards with no ghosting and the play experience improved tons.
For the product, good idea, long time coming, just needs tweaks.
Since I used to play emulator games forever and ever on keyboard.. Yes, this one is certainly for me.
I bought a Mayflash arcade stick for a year or so ago, and while I have practiced using it a lot, I simply cannot do any kind of Shoryuken movements with it.
They just need a PC version. Though if it has "shortcuts".. makes me wonder if it'll be banned from tournaments..
Personally, I want to put the buttons on the left side and the directional keys on the right like a keyboard.
Zeithri Thank you for the interest ! It is tournament entitled as it has SOCD cleaner. The right version will be launched in the coming month
I've never managed to get the hang of using the Keyboard for gaming, so I'm impressed seeing you pull off combo's on this, I can't even pull off a fireball, let alone anything else. I'm surprised it even works...looks interesting.
Also as a side note, might want to put a link in the description for where to buy it or the manufacturers website, Google just gave me search results for DJ equipment.
i would so try one of these. i already use a hitbox more often than not, so i would love to see how this feels in comparison. thanks for the video! great job!!!
dude I had the same experience as a kid with the split keyboard vs play. I'm actually looking forward to giving this arcade stick a try as I always felt more confident with the movement execution on a keyboard
for Zangief's super you need to buffer the super motion while doing another move (like a standing heavy), during jumping frames, or during the dashing animation. Basically anytime that you're restricted from jumping.
OMG I REALLY WAS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS!!!!!
Jos B Thanks!!
I did a similar thing with my DIY Arcade Bartop. I don't like the joystick. So, I made my controller board with twelve buttons, six per row:
Select, Up, Start, LP, MP, HP
Left, Down, Right, LK, MK, HK
And this is the best layout I've play'd ever. If the Mixbox change the keyboard keys for arcade buttons, could be a great thing!!!
As a keyboard player for most of my life, this'll probably the stick for me. I never really got comfortable with a Hitbox when I tried it out.
thanks KappaMikeyTSF!
I bought one of these, the PCB is cable tied to a piece of plast in which a single hole is drilled through and a nut and bolt holding it down
This was snapped. Not a delivery error, as the case (the best aspect of the device) is metal. Though the case was terribly protecxted with loose torn pieces of polystyrene wedged in and around the box.
The left arrow key was broken as well, this required changing.
Description on the product is vague to mislead you into believing it's full sanwa, that only the face buttons were sanwa (I am still unsure if this is the case, as they're taller than any other sanwa I have used before)
As per their terms and conditions I can get a full refund barring the £30 tax I paid, and the return shipping of £40 and any other taxes returning to China (even though it's all their fault)
As a collector I STRONGLY advise against this, the unit is way too expensive for what it is at $250 for a fixer upper.
Do not fall for the hype. Learn from my mistake.
been playing SF4 on Keyboard for so long it's really impossible to make the switch to stick and it'd take literally months to get used to one. Meanwhile this is the controller I've always dreamed of having.
Wish they make a version which replaces the other regular buttons with the numpad too.
Shin Akuma Thanks! Do you mean all keypads controller?
...Wouldn't that just be a keyboard
Yea, a keyboard with a PCB that works on consoles without converters.
this is really cool, i have always played on keyboard and looking to get an arcade stick but i'm a bit intimidated of the stick motion, i guess this is just perfect for someone like me
I had the same experience with my brother :)) I want a stick like that, but i don t know where to buy one.
MUGEN!?! That game is so much fun!
getting destroyed by Cheapies right?
Must I remind you of how op every single broly character is ?
Playing fighting game on a keyboard for 5 years, I must say I feel more satisfied when doing combo or a special move than playing on a controller, stick (yes, I owned both controller and stick).
There is a arcade keyboard set!? Sign me up!
Wow, I could not understand the idea behind a hitbox, but this looks like it could actually work.
I always used Zangief's super move by jumping in, inputing the command while I'm landing, so the second I land, the super move comes out. Trying to do it while standing still was always super hard for me....
Brandon Tackett Support!
I was thinking of sticking to a ps4 controller for Tekken 7 because I'm a very new player and never used a stick before, plus the d-pad seems more convenient than the stick on the character I want to use. Didn't realize they made stuff like this with directional buttons instead of sticks, that would be great to have if I want to use something different!
For Zangief's super do it during a buffer space, so do it during a dash or during a jump, hitting the attack as you land, or in connection with an attack.
I know this may come as a surprise for many but on PC there is a large community that swear by keyboard controls for fighters. I know it seems crazy, you would think you would only use a keyboard if you had no choice but they seem to love it. I wonder if a hitbox is actually allowed in fighter tournaments. That would be interesting to see.
You have to jump and do 2 cycles in the air when you hit the ground press punch , or use standing unique hard punche forward to super cancel x)
