X-Arcade Adapter For Playstation 3 And Xbox Reviews

Customer Ratings:

A friend of mine gave me this arcade stick a few years back and it's an awesome arcade controller. Now that Street Fighter vs Tekken came out I really wanted to use it on my PS3 so I bought this converter. It arrived quickly, in two business days for me which is pretty awesome as the esimate was 3-5 days. While there is no deception going on as you get what's pictured, you do need a serial cable. The manual did say it was supposed to be included. Some might already have this with their controller but I didn't. Fortunately I had one lying around from an old computer so it all worked out. I'm playing with it in SFxT and it works really, really well! One star minus for me as I would have been upset if I had to order a serial cable and not been able to play it right away.

I purchased the X-Arcade Dual Stick about three weeks ago, and knew immediately I'd want to use it with all the latest fighting and arcade games available on my PS3. Knowing that these adapters were available, I immediately purchased the Xbox/PS3 adapter.

Amazingly, two days later the package arrived. I say that because I expected it to take at least a week, and it was only two days!

The device is pretty straightforward, a box that connects your serial port on the X-Arcade to either the Xbox or PS3 for two players. Yes, this adapter connects two players, and does not require a second adapter. The adapter itself is an ingenious device. It not only connects the Xbox or PS3, but it has LED lights inside the transparent housing that show you what player slot you have currently set on your PS3. On the Xbox, you just plug into whichever controller slot you want. Very easy. The length of the P1/P2 cables coming out of the adapter are maybe 8" to 10". The cable coming from the adapter to the X-Arcade is approximately 7 to 8 feet. If you keep your console concealed or behind a glass door, you'll need to make a little room in the front when you are using this adapter.

Pros:

-Very simple to use and understand.

-You can't mess up the installation.

-Everything is well documented.

-It's built like a tank, and doesn't come off as cheap.

-LED lights show you a clear indicator of player position while on PS3.

-Mortal Kombat has never felt so good!

Cons:

-It doesn't make toast.

-Doesn't cure cancer.

-Doesn't come with rockets for interplanetary exploration. (Sold separately)

-It despises cats.

Final Verdict: If you have an X-arcade product and a PS3/Xbox, too many cats, and love games, then this product is for you.

Worked great for a week, then it would not assign the controllers for a day or two then it fixed its self.

I've had it for a month and except for those two or so days it's worked perfect.

It works better than the Xbox 360 adapter. I gave up on trying to get that thing to work.

Above is the cable you will need to use this product: male to male 9-pin serial. After installed, simply press side button + player start to activate.

As previously mentioned, this product works perfectly. This + my MAME machine = awesome.

Happy Gaming.
