Can you play video games like this? Review of the KO Arcade Customized Boxing Fighter Joystick

With the rise of TV games and their growing development trend, players' demand for TV game peripherals is also increasing. Compared with the current mainstream PC games, the types of peripherals are also diverse, while for TV games, most players only use controller peripherals to experience the game. Therefore, increasing the diversity of TV game peripherals has also become a direction for the development of TV games.

The game gift package I received from KO Arcade a few days ago included the "Q1-Zhan" home game joystick customized by the well-known game peripheral company Ong-Bak for KO Arcade. Under the game platform of KO Arcade, which is dedicated to creating simulator games, the appearance of this game joystick provides a development platform for the diversified development of TV game peripherals. Will this Q1-Zhan become a charming artifact for joystick fans?

The "Q1" home game joystick uses an injection-molded frame, which is all black, with a mirrored acrylic panel on the surface, and is lightweight. It is fixed to the edge of the table by a tight plastic nut, which is safe and firm and can withstand multiple hits from players. The joystick main buttons use the new buttons independently developed by Ong-Bak, and the joystick part also uses the new joystick independently developed by Ong-Bak. The joystick strictly follows the Vewlix layout, and it can be seen that it is trying to create a feel close to arcade games.

Like other controllers, Q1 uses a USB interface to connect to TVs and other display devices. For the newly emerging TV games, Q1 can develop Bluetooth and other diverse connection methods in the future to facilitate the needs of families and players. This Q1, which is specially designed for TV games, can automatically identify and be compatible with Xbox/PS3/PC, facilitating players' needs for various games. For the current mainstream TV game console system, Q1's multiple recognition functions can be said to be a boon for TV games.

On the game platform produced by KO Arcade, Q1 is very compatible with the games and will not be inoperable. For the "Q1" home game joystick, we selected "The King of Fighters 97" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to test the operating performance of Q1, and share the operating experience with you.

In terms of key settings before entering the game, the Q1's key settings are more similar to those of general controller peripherals in TV games. For players who are used to playing with controllers, this joystick is a small convenience. The Chinese setting instructions can also make it clear to players at a glance.

As a stand-alone fighting game, "The King of Fighters 97" is the best choice to test the performance of Q1 Slash. In the game, as the joystick swings multiple times, the game character also quickly swings and quickly gets into position. With the flexible operation of the fingers and the response of the buttons, the continuity of the game character's movements is also well reflected.

In addition, KO Arcade also provides an online battle platform. In online games, after pressing the Q1 key, the action of the game character will be delayed due to network factors. However, I believe that with the development of TV games in the future, the emergence of zero delay will not be too far away from us.

As an action-based game, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is also more suitable for the Q1-killing operation. With the flexible operation of the joystick and buttons, whether it is the release of skills or the specific actions of the characters, they are all reflected easily and smoothly.

As for the handle peripherals, the Q1's operation fluency is greatly improved, making people immersed in the charm of joystick video games again.

Evaluation summary: "Q1" home game joystick is a very creative product for TV game peripherals, which makes many consumers shine. Its unique joystick design and outstanding operating feel are the essence of this peripheral. After the trial in the evaluation room, compared with general TV games, Q1 is more suitable for fighting games, and the operation is close to arcade games. It not only has a good feel and smooth operation, but also compared with general handle peripherals, the joystick design of Q1 can better reflect the operating feel of fighting games, allowing players to fully experience the passion and excitement.

The Oni Bakatsu Q1 maintains a very smooth feel, which can be regarded as an excellent experience for fighting and some casual games. It is a bit regrettable that this Q1, which is deeply customized for KO Arcade, cannot play as many games as PC games in the KO Arcade gaming platform environment. I hope that KO Arcade can provide players with a variety of excellent games in its future development.

In general, the combination of Q1 of Ong-Bak and KO Arcade game platform provides a good development direction for TV games and peripheral products, allowing various types of games to be presented in a different way and with different fun on TV. For joystick fans, the appearance of Q1 may be an opportunity for them to choose TV games.
