PS3/PS4 Retail Arcade Sticks List with information/facts/photos/etc -IN PROGRESS-

$

Important information-

This list was originally developed for the purpose of informing everyone in my local community of what options they have on a retail level after the series of announcements regarding future game releases on the PS4 as well as after EVO announcing games on the PS4. Obviously those visiting SRK TT will be curious as well, so I thought this would be the best place for this information.
Instead of an individual having to sift through hundreds of pages of topics for information, they can come here and see all the facts (and potentially some opinions) laid out for them.

If you have general arcade stick questions, please ask in the "Absolute Question and Answer Thread v.3 (ASK YOUR QUESTIONS HERE!)" thread
http://forums.shoryuken.com/discussion/194283/absolute-question-and-answer-thread-v-3-ask-your-questions-here

If you desire information on other arcade sticks that are not listed here please visit the "What Stick/Controller Should I Buy? Read the Guide on Pg 1 Before Posting." thread
http://forums.shoryuken.com/discussion/137321/what-stick-controller-should-i-buy-read-the-guide-on-pg-1-before-posting/p1

The list is incomplete, as it will forever need to be expanded and updated with new information as it's released. If you have any updated information and/or specifics, please feel free to post that info, or PM me the info and I'll incorporate it on the list below.

IF YOU SEE SOMETHING THAT IS WRONG, OR HAVE INFORMATION WE ARE MISSING, PLEASE PROVIDE INFO WITH SOURCE. PLZTHX

There will be no tier list, and there will likely not be a "I SUGGEST YOU BUY ________ ARCADE STICK" info.

This is information for you to use to your advantage to make an independent decision based on what features you may or may not enjoy. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not come in to this thread and just ask "Which one should I buy?".
Use knowledge below to grow, think, and learn.


and please don't image quote.

- Is a negative feature

Case-
TE2 Case (Same on XB1/PS3/PS4/360 versions)
=Weight (______)
=Base consists of multiple heavy duty plastic pieces screwed together
=Interior of case has roughly 5.5cm of height space for mounting PCBs and/or storage
=Side hinge clasps are metal, front hinge clasp is plastic
+Hinges can be nice for replacing parts and storage for extra buttons etc
+Comes with reversible screwdriver flat/hex for maintenance needs
+Planned customization options from Madcatz in future such as replacement sides etc
+Same design/production base by major company for multiple consoles and releases means there will be plenty 3rd party customization options in the future
+Curve of base on back makes it difficult to accidentally press the arcade stick against an object and hit the Start/Select buttons
-Hinges don't clasp as solid as they should causing a small give with pressure

Metal Panels-
+Both top and bottom metal panels
-Sanwa screw-ins not compatible with Kick1 due to nut being in way of joystick mounting plate

Plexi/Art-
=Default plexi goes around the buttons instead of under them. This has both advantages and disadvantes as listed below
+Default plexi easy to remove for replacing artwork without having to remove wires/quickdisconnects/buttons
-A few reported issues of default plexi not sitting securely due to size and/or miscut and being able to slide/shift and ruining artwork underneath (rare and plexi was replaced by Madcatz)
=Tek Innovations does have replacement plexi option and some report is much better than stock plexi.

Bottom Padding/Feet-
=Has a foam padding
=Does not have feet
+Good for lap
-Slides a bit on hard flat surfaces

Joystick-
=Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT

Buttons-
=Sanwa OBSF-30 and OBSF-24
=These buttons utilize clear rings that allow the button to rise and be flush with the clear top panel
-A few reported issues of stock buttons being shipped with broken or loose tabs likely due to rough installation during assembly.

PCB-
+Common ground. Possible to multi-mod.
+Removable plastic cover from internal USB plug allows removal of PCB easy which neutralizes the issue of short USB wires soldered to bottom of PCB.

Wiring-
+Clean wiring using an PATA/IDE style ribbon cable connector on PCB to 20 color coded wires (10 signal 10 ground) to buttons.
+Quick disconnects have a convenient tab on them for easy removal that seem to be exclusively made for Madcatz.

USB Cable-
=Removable proprietary "ProCable" using a circular 5 pin DIN style connector
=Screws into connector on back of arcade stick base. Can prevent disconnection of signal if cord is pulled which can be good or bad depending on situation.
+Removable cable
-Not easily replaceable without special ordering from Madcatz or modder

Unanswered Questions Due to Insufficient Testing-
-Not at this time
