I'm just wondering what are the best options for a multi format arcade stick these days. Nes, Snes, PC Engine, MD, PC etc.
I bought a MadCatz TE stick and TE kitty modding boards a few years back from god like controls and never got around to installing them.
Are these still the best options or is there a better option now, i've been out of the scene for while so just looking for some feedback really.
Cheers

Re: Multi format arcade stick - options?
I prefer the TE Kitty over the MC Cthulhu or PS360+ because you get to keep your turbo function for every system and you get to remap your buttons on all your systems except the 360. There's always the odd game that won't work with the Kitty; I know Super Double Dragon on SNES doesn't work with the TE Kitty, and I even had to reflash the Kitty firmware to get it working again. But reading around, I think the PS360+ has even shoddier legacy console support.
The TE Kitty doesn't do Genesis, but I'm pretty sure you can padhack a Genesis controller and use Undamned's UD-USB decoder to get around that. (If they ever go back in stock, anyway...)
There are converters by Brook that handle the PS4 and Xbox One, and they have a Universal Fighting Board coming out that does PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. I don't think there's any legacy console support with any of their products unless you count their PS2-to-PS4 and PS2-to-Xbox One converters.
