Hey there! so i wanna build an actual arcade machine with some friends!

I am no expert, so please don't take my word for granted. With that being said. From what I understand, this arcade stick should work just fine. Like most other gamepads.
If it does not work right out of the box, I am sure you could make it work with the software JoyToKey, which allows you to translate gamepad input to mouse/keyboard input.
thanks man! ill buy them now and keep you updated
