I recently acquired the 8Bitdo Wireless Arcade Stick for Xbox Series X|S, this arcade stick has proven to be an impressive addition to my gaming setup.Here’s a comprehensive review based on my experience.*****Build Quality and Design*****The 8Bitdo Wireless Arcade Stick is incredibly well-built. The construction feels solid and durable, giving a sense of longevity and reliability. The stick's weight is just right, providing stability during intense gaming sessions, or the brute force of a toddler, without being overly cumbersome. The modern USB-C port for charging is a fantastic inclusion, offering faster charging times and a more secure connection.*****Functionality and Customizability*****One of the standout features of this arcade stick is its terrific quality and customizability. The stick is highly responsive, with precise control inputs that enhance the gaming experience, especially for fighting games and arcade titles. The layout is well-designed, and the buttons and joystick offer satisfying tactile feedback.*****Connectivity*****Connecting the arcade stick to various devices is seamless with the provided USB Dongle. It works flawlessly with Xbox Series X|S, and Windows 10, providing a versatile solution for different platforms. The wireless connectivity is stable, with no noticeable lag, and is a smooth and responsive gaming experience.*****Practicality for Young Gamers*****The primary reason for purchasing this arcade stick was to provide a more simple control option for my 3-year-old to play games like *Bluey*. The Xbox controller was challenging for him to hold and use effectively. The joystick and large, clearly defined buttons on the arcade stick have made playing games fun and accessible for both of us. This setup is much more intuitive for young children, allowing them to enjoy games without the frustration of too large, or overly complex controls.*****Buttons and Usability****The one drawback I encountered with the 8Bitdo Wireless Arcade Stick is that all the buttons are black with small text indicating their functions. This design choice can make it challenging for younger or less frequent gamers to remember button combinations, leading to a less intuitive experience.To address this issue, I recommend planning on buying Sanwa OBSF-30 buttons and swapping them out. The process is quick and straightforward, significantly enhancing the usability of the arcade stick. The colorful Sanwa buttons not only make it easier to identify functions but also add a vibrant touch to the overall look of the stick. It’s now much simpler to instruct them to “press the blue button” or “hit the green button,” significantly improving their gaming experience.

While the default black buttons may pose a challenge for some users, this is easily remedied by swapping them with Sanwa OBSF-30 buttons. This minor adjustment aside, the arcade stick is an excellent investment for both casual and serious gamers, providing a versatile and highly enjoyable gaming experience. For parents looking to introduce their young children to gaming with a more straightforward control scheme, this arcade stick is an ideal choice after some minor modifications.
