Arcade Joystick Kit

The Magik Costumes 5-pin joystick kit provides a competition-style stick for DIY arcade builds. A 35 mm ball top and spring return-to-centre action deliver the feel expected from classic cabinets. Microswitches are rated for 1000000 cycles. The unit fits both wood and metal control panels.

DIY Cabinet Builders

Makers assembling a custom arcade panel or repairing an existing machine will find the 4-way and 8-way selectable action useful. The kit ships without a wiring harness, so buyers who need a ready-to-plug solution should look elsewhere. No mounting template or hardware is included in the package.

5-Pin Microswitch Interface

The decisive specification is the 5-pin terminal block on the microswitch assembly. Your control board or encoder must accept this exact connector layout; otherwise the joystick cannot be wired without an adapter or soldering.
