Sega Gear: ASCII Fighter Stick SG-6

You’re playing Mortal Kombat 3 or Street Fighter II CE and you just can’t take the controller’s unsuitable D-pad. What’s a gamer to do? Why, get himself a real fighting stick, that’s what! There are plenty of candidates available (as evidenced by our Accessories & Peripheral Guide), so which to choose? There’s the stellar Sega Arcade Stick, but those can be hard to find and are sometimes even pricey. A good alternative is the ASCII Fighter Stick SG-6, which gives you plenty of options to get the best out of your fighting game experience.
