Razer Kitsune All-Button Arcade Controller $226 (was $300) See at Amazon Modern fighting games are designed for standard gamepads, but nothing matches the precision and feel of a dedicated arcade-style controller--especially the popular all-button "leverless" style fight sticks. While these can be quite expensive, one of the best devices of this style, the Razer Kitsune--which supports PS5 and PC--is on sale for $226 (was $300) at Amazon. The discount is part of Amazon's Black Friday deals, which include a variety of other gaming peripherals and controllers, as well as discounts on games, movies, and more. Razer Kitsune All-Button Arcade Controller $226 (was $300) The Razer Kitsune is a leverless, all-button fighting game controller, meaning it replaces a traditional joystick with dedicated direction buttons. Leverless fight sticks have become very popular within the fighting game community thanks to their quicker, more precise inputs. While it might take some time to adjust to the all-button layout (especially if you are already used to a traditional fight stick), once you do, you'll be pulling off combos and special attacks with ease.Like several other Razer products, the Kitsune has a super-thin profile and Chroma RGB lighting around the base of the chassis. The aluminum faceplate is also removable, allowing for easy tinkering with the controller. It comes fitted with low-profile optical linear mechanical switches. One thing to note here is that the Kitsune is only compatible with PS5 and PC, which is a bit of a shame considering that the PS4 still has a very active community of fighting game fans. See at Amazon "The learning curve is quite steep, but the payoff is well worth the effort. The lack of native PS4 support is disappointing, which would be a dealbreaker for some. But from its build quality and physical design to the ergonomics and actual performance in competitive scenarios, it's nearly impossible for me to find a notable flaw in my 20-plus hours using it," Michael Higham wrote in GameSpot's Razer Kitsune review.Continue Reading at GameSpot...
