J-RZA JLF Fighting Game Special

J-RZA has decades of experience inside arcades and with early home gaming computers and consoles. His adoration for fighting games has continued through many passing trends - giving him a favourable and unique perspective on the legacy fighting games and newer entries that garner pro level dedication and play.

J-RZA’s preferred joystick for fighting games achieves balance within allowances for the heavy-handed Tongan style play. The stiff spring counteracts the increased directional force, maintaining input accuracy under demanding conditions. Meanwhile, the heavy balltop assists aggressive movement whilst also counter-balancing the spring tension and reducing overall deflection under load. Optionally, the large 45mm balltop helps directed control for large hands during intense gameplay within side scrolling beat em ups. This joystick will suit gamers with an assertive hand and harsh input execution, as well as traditional “button mashers” seeking a highly robust lever to complement their playstyle. Having access to both balltops is key to J-RZA's flexibility and optimisation moving between game genres. Darker colour selections in the accessory parts are timeless and exhibit a purposeful tone, matching J-RZA's noir fightstick of choice, the Hori Fighting Stick Alpha.
