Amazing Arcade Stick (Easy To Mod)
Superb I'm using on pc and have easily upgraded all buttons and joystick to Sanwa. Simple to mod no soldering as the boards compatible with JST-XH female to female cable so just plug into the new Sanwa Joystick JLF-TP-8YT and the board works perfect and use 30 mm buttons except for start 24mm. This is a amazing stick even the standard buttons and stick are great for a novice or causal plasyer. It's also easy to custom art just download the template from the Mayflash site. It's big enough to use on your lap too and a good weight. I thought build quality was excellent. Also tried on Android works like a charm. But for console you do need to plug a gamepad in for it to work. Highly recommend so glad I bought this over more expensive as even with the high quality Sanwa parts it's still cheaper but that's your choice.

Quality Fightstick
A fantastic value for money purchase. I bought this stick after around 20 hours of Tekken 7 and a lifetime of fighting game experience. If you are looking for an "affordable" stick, I would recommend the F500 more than anything. It comes by default with a square gate installed (octagon gate included in the order) and a customizable plate on top. Easy to switch out components, too. For a starter stick, this is definitely the one I would recommend (sticks cheaper than the F500 generally deliver on price, they don't last long and they don't perform too well over time).The F500 is compatible natively with PS3, Xbox360 and of course PC. It is not natively compatible with the PS4, however most games on PS4 have their own internal decoders that let legacy fightsticks such the F500 work.Would recommend.

Great affordable product.
Even though I unfortunately had to return this item I shall leave a review nonetheless. This is a great product for the average person to use, its got a good weight to it and is a perfect size to rest on your lap and use along with being so easy to Mod and customize. The buttons weren't overly loud and were very responsive to anything you done. If the stick was a bit more sensitive and you didn't have to use as much force for inputs I would have kept this with no doubts in my mind - The only problem I had with this is that I have a permanent injury to my left wrist so even a short session gave me quite a bit of pain from using the stick.

Good. Works for Soul Calibur VI
Good fight stick, decent size for me as I have big hands so I skipped on the F300.You take it out the box, update the drivers, plug it in (Use a MagicBoots, I only have recent Xbox One pads so it was a must for me) and off you go.Have to make sure you start the game with the stick I found, otherwise the pad takes priority. I like the squaregate that is already installed as I find it easier to do diagonal inputs with it.I think this item may have been returned, it has a little wear. Could just be due to the way it was packaged though. Nothing major, a little tiny scratch and one of the anti slip pads on the bottom has come loose. Nothing big enough for me to deduct a star or feel negative about the item. It would be nice if the entire bottom had that antislip padding in my opinion but it's weighty enough for it to not move about.Might replace the buttons at some point, might not. They feel decent enough to me.

Possibly the best fightstick I'll ever have
This is my second ever fightstick after years of using the Madcatz TE2. I sold that stick a few years ago but after recently getting into Tekken 7, I thought I'd need a new one.The Mayflash F500 in my opinion is an even better stick than the premium priced £200 Madcatz TE2. For £85~ the F500 gives you buttons and a stick that feel freakishly similar to sanwa parts, with the easy option to swap them out for genuine sanwas if you really want to. The most noticeable thing about this stick is it's weight. If you set this on your lap or on your desk it isn't going anywhere, the large metal base gives it such a premium weight and feel to the product that you feel really satisfied with your purchase.Last but not least, the real kicker is that this stick is universal, I am shocked that I only paid £83 for this controller and can use it on every console I own, as well as my PC. I really can't recommend this product enough for FGC enthusiasts or beginners, you won't be disappointed.

Good, great value fightstick
The Mayflash F500 is a great value arcade fight stick. It's very big, feels sturdy on the desk and on the lap and to be honest, the built-in joystick and buttons aren't too bad. I was going to replace them with genuine Sanwa parts, but after playing with the stick for a few weeks, I didn't feel any urgency to replace them immediately. Perhaps I will upgrade them in a few months instead.I did, however, replace the 4-way joystick plate with the 8-way that came in the box and now I can play Street Fighter much better.I have so far tested the stick on a Raspberry Pi running RetroPie and Emulation Station as well as on a Mac Mini 2012 running macOS Mojave with Mame and AttractMode.

Amazing Fight Stick for the price a bargain !!!
Amazing Fight stick been adicted to tekken 7 with this beast of a stick. I chose this stick after doing a fair bit of research was going to go for the f300 but this f500 is bigger and quality wise built better.The stick came with a additional octagonal gate changed it over from the square one. Im very pleased with the stick and its feel fairly premiumto me came. This also came next day very impressed for a starter stick for around £78 felt like a bargain and was a bargain would definitely recommend 5 stars all dayI aslo got it to play without sticking a controller into pushed the first switch all the way down to ps3/dinput and could play with it on its own but couldnt use ps home buttom or share properly but still worked unless thats what you could do either way fantastic bit of kit really happy.

Here this is pretty good.
I played on pad for ages and decided to try this out. Pretty decent! It's a lot of fun actually. Very easy to customise. Have a look at Sanwa or Crown levers, also Sanwa buttons. You can head to focus attack to get some custom artwork too. This comes with two plates, square (default) and octagonal.Remember and update the firmware through Mayflash website when it arrives.Also be sure to check out other folk's customisations and see what is compatible, because there's a lot you can do with this.

Ottimo arcade stick, solido e facilmente moddabile
Ho acquistato il MAYFLASH F500 V2 e ne sono rimasto davvero soddisfatto. La qualità costruttiva si percepisce subito: è solido, ben assemblato e soprattutto progettato per essere facilmente aggiornabile. La possibilità di sostituire joystick e pulsanti senza complicazioni è uno dei suoi punti di forza.🎮 JoystickIl joystick di serie è di buona qualità e utilizza microswitch LEMA KW7. Arriva con un gate quadrato montato, fissato sia tramite gli incastri standard Sanwa sia con quattro viti. Nella confezione è incluso anche un gate ottagonale, ideale per chi preferisce un controllo più morbido nelle diagonali. I gate Sanwa sono perfettamente compatibili.🔘 PulsantiI pulsanti imitano i Sanwa OBSF-30: risultano leggermente più rigidi rispetto agli originali, ma offrono comunque un buon feedback. Molto piacevole anche la colorazione rosso amaranto, che dona un tocco estetico particolare.🧩 Differenze rispetto alla versione EliteLa mainboard del V2 include quattro connettori JST a 2 pin dedicati alle direzioni (UP, LEFT, RIGHT, DOWN), oltre al classico connettore a 5 poli per il joystick. Un dettaglio che semplifica ulteriormente eventuali modifiche.📦 Contenuto della confezione• cavo USB A femmina → USB C maschio (15 cm)• cavo USB A maschio → USB micro maschio (100 cm)• cavo USB A maschio non removibile (300 cm)• 4 piedini in gomma con relative viti• gate quadrato a 8 vie (generico, non Sanwa)• gate ottagonale (generico, non Sanwa)✅ ConclusioniNel complesso, il MAYFLASH F500 V2 supera le aspettative: è robusto, versatile e già ottimo così com’è, ma dà il meglio di sé se si vuole personalizzarlo. Per il prezzo pagato (74,99 €), è un acquisto che consiglio senza esitazioni.

Really good!
For the price, it is a really good arcade/fight stick, also really easy to mod because of it's standard sized parts.

Good entry for stick beginners, but required modifications
The stick works as good as it's advertised, a great stick for beginners. I have been playing fightpad for 20 years + so switching to stick is like a new thing for me, the stick has some weight and the faceplate is bigger so it's food for bigger hand folks (like me) so that I can rest my hand on the stick. I have been playing it a few days the original buttons aren't too sensitive, I guess that's why they offer easy modifications, which I highly recommend to mod it to sanwa parts. Overall it's a great stick under decent price!

Amazing Multi Platform Arcade Stick!
First Amazon review I ever write so...First off, I had issues with this stick, but truth be told it was all user error. Once I realized what I was doing wrong, it worked perfectly!1. The instructions do not mention it but when you download a firmware update, it is a .rar file. You will need to extract it using WinRAR and use the update program. Updating is extremely easy and quick (remember to plug into a 2.0 USB on a PC while holding select and start buttons on the stick).2. I ran into issues using the stick on Steam. Simple fix: go into Steam controller settings and make sure the Xbox, PS4, etc. are checked (I run the stick in XDirect mode so Xbox checkbox is all I needed).After the above 2 points stick works flawless on Xbox One S and PC using Steam. Haven’t tried it on my PS4 or Switch yet but I shouldn’t have any issues (firmware is the current version).The stick amazing. I have an early 2010s MadCatz SFIV stick that cost me $200 and this stick is very comparable to it. They not feel great to me. For the price, this is a great stick to get. I’d you don’t want to pay $200+ for a stick, this is a great option. Not sure how it does in competitive play, but should be fine I think. Also, this stick is multi platform, so. I worries on what system to get it for (my MadCatz is Xbow360/PC only, use a converter for PS4/Xbox One S play).Customization is awesome too. I just ordered Sanwa buttons/joystick to replace the stock ones, but that’s not to say stock is bad. I’ve been playing fighting games for years so I prefer it. I’ve read other reviews also stating the stock components are great too, so don’t worry too much about that.Stick is sturdy and does not feel cheap at all. One thing to note: if you don’t mind the color scheme, I’d recommend the F500 Elite. It comes with Sanwa buttons/joystick and the price difference isn’t a lot. I spent $80 on the Sanwa buttons/joystick but only because I wanted a specific color scheme.Overall this is a great stick to get. I’m sure the $200 plus sticks are amazing as well, but for casual to some competitive play, I believe this stick is perfect. I bought this for my son but will also get myself one, the multi platform is amazing (converters cost $40 each).For the price, this is a great buy.
