I built a fightstick the other week! Mostly for Street Fighter 6, though I have played some other 2D games including Hades and River City Girls with it as well.

Parts:

-Brook UFB Fusion board for compatibility with PS4/5, XBOX 360 and above, Switch, Wii U, PC and more

-Crown 309 Helpme K ST35 lever

-Qanba Gravity KS buttons for the top and Seimitsu standard for the sides

-Custom enclosure kit from Eternal Rival

    Woah this looks amazing. Now I have a new project to add to the list! Got any videos of it in use? How does it feel? Did you document the build process?

    Damn you for opening up these possibilities!

    I’ve wanted to make one of these for my Switch. Could anybody help me get started? Can I build it from scratch or would I be buying a kit?

      I got an enclosure kit from here with a multiconsole PCB (brain for controller). I did research on what buttons and joystick I wanted and ordered them from focusattack and arcadeshock. I liked that I didn’t have to solder everything and they gave me a useful guide for how to set everything up. I linked a build manual in another comment.

      But you don’t have to go that way! Depending on your patience and engineering skills you could make a controller out of nearly everything. You could get a cheap PCB from a working controller from a game system you like and a joystick and or some buttons and stick them in an Amazon box if you wanted!

      Or, you could do what my buddy did and pick up a kool-aid covered broken street fighter 4 stick off the street, clean it out, and put a new board and joystick in it! It’s up to youuu
