The client requested a Joystick instead of the standard leverless version of the Hing3DBox. The joystick used is a Sanwa JLF with and upgrade, the Link Ex Groove for easier transportation. This product is now available for sale on the website. The joystick is not included but we recommend using the same as the one made for the client.

Hing3DBox with a D-Pad
The client is a D-Pad player. He expressed a preference for a D-Pad over leverless directional buttons. The left side has undergone slight modifications to better suit left-handed use, with smoothed edges for enhanced comfort. The design incorporates a PS5 plastic D-Pad and micro switches.
