  • Great deal. Matching JB.

    Good deal for sure. I would grab one if I didn't have one already.

  • +1

    Oos

  • Bargain of the year. I've also used it for my pc arcade gaming fix.

    • I've always wanted to get 4 of these for couch gaming. I saw that there's an Xbox version. Any issues with using this on PC? I see the black version has Windows compatibility vs this being X Input.

  • Looks like it's oos

  • Bought one from JB thanks

  • Cheers my dude. Banger of a deal

  • -2

    Is this one compatible with switch2?

  • Great find!

    $5.99 next day delivery is pretty reasonable! Tempting.

    JB link now broken. Pricing error maybe?

    • A broken link (that once worked) means that there is low or no stock left.

      JB HiFi don't do pages saying out of stock.

  • Yah jb hifi caught on

  • +2

    Dammit, all gone. I really wanted one of these!

    • +1

      same, but people just buy because it's cheap and never use it

  • Thanks OP!

    I have two of these, didn't pay much more than this. I recommend getting a Sanwa stick and buttons and removing the metal weight plates. You can get Brook adapters to use this on Xbox or PS.

    • Actually it has a Sanwa version which comes with Sanwa stick and buttons out of the box. It's just I don't know if it's available in Australia.

  • +1

    Damn OOS, been after one for awhile.

  • It looks like JB took their page down. I keep refreshing and nothing. Somebody from JB must have checked this site.

    I have had this on the camels for so long. Got an email this morning and no stock.

    Great price. Well done to those that got one.

  • +1

    I want this.

  • Can you use this with a Raspberry Pi running Emulation Station?

  • +1

    Can anyone share their receipt/invoice?

  • Is this compatible with everything?

    • +1

      Almost. You need Brooks Wingman converter for PS5.

      • You can get a similar one for Dreamcast and Saturn too if you're into consoles that have tonnes of arcade games.

  • +2

    I hope it magically comes back in stock, actually they do have stock for $169

  • seems like mine shipped from jb? got a notification. So I guess they are honouring it

    • I got notification that my click and collect is ready for pickup.

      • wow cool, let us know if they have more for the same price cheers!

    • yeah, but it's a broken link

  • Wonder if these will be in store at the same price or was it online only?

    • go and check for us, let us know if you can price match it and all that cheers!

  • Damn it!

      • Need 4 controllers for the Simpsons though right?

        • If you want 4 people to play at once.

  • Ha do ken

    I have the Mayflash F300 which is solid arcade stick. But this is good entry level.

    • entry level hmmm ….the mayflash doesn't even have bluetooth

    • I want a decent fighting stick for around $200.

  • My Amazon order just shipped.

    • -1

      I wonder why they cut if off then if there is still stock but at the higher price, so they just didn't want to sell any more at the lower price?

      • +1

        Amazon stock gone, 3rd party sellers now

        • -2

          nahh i saw they still have it, but you must pay more money for it, no cheap price for you!

          • @9hundred: That's because Amazon stock gone, 3rd party sellers now

            • -2

              @Nom: Is Amazon gonna replenish stock and sell it for the same price or will they want more for it?

              • @9hundred: They priced matched JB Hi-Fi, if JB Hi-Fi stock comes back at the lower price, than Amazon probably will.

  • Missed it…

  • +1

    What a bunch of idiots at JB hifi. Deleting a product page is pretty bad practice. They'd be generating lots of hits through Google and even this site. Even if you don't sell it you'd still want the page active.

    • yeah I think it's still available in store, but they don't want you to know about it, like a kinda secret

  • -4

    Back in stock, but at $163.73

    Just a heads up to anyone who got one. I updated using their updater a few days ago for Switch 2 support and it killed the 2.4Ghz dongle. Trying to get a replacement has been nightmare due to a lack of stock at JB and 8bitdo support have been hard to deal with. A new update to their firmware updated was released today mentioning an "abnormal" situation when updating the dongle so it's clear it was a faulty firmware update but they haven't been forthcoming on sending a replacement dongle…
