 ====General====
 One of the very first authentic arcade sticks to reach North America from Japan.  The guts are made from arcade parts, and the stick has a very enduring fanbase, especially in Japan.  It's very moddable, with lots of space inside, and if you've got a pile of adaptors you can use it on [[http://www.pipitan.com/cpsf.html|almost every console]].
 ====What's inside?====
-While the buttons are custom on top, they use the same keyboard-like switch used in most Sanwa/Seimitsu arcade buttons, mounted to a PCB like almost every stick made since.  The stick mechanism seems to be a very early Seimitsu, but this is pure conjecture.  Some internal images amd several mods can be found [[http://buglin.boo.jp/js/js.html|on this page]].

-The layout of this stick conforms to the SNES Street Fighter layout.
+Here's the pinout compared to a SNES pad:
 ^ SNES / StreetFighter button map ^^
 ^ SNES ^ Street Fighter ^
-|  A | Medium kick  |
+|  X | Medium kick  |
-|  B | Weak kick  |
+|  L | Weak kick  |
-|  X | Medium punch  |
+|  B | Medium punch  |
 |  Y | Weak punch  |
-|  L | Hard punch  |
+|  A | Hard punch  |
 |  R | Hard kick  |
+This pinout is totally different from the Capcom Fighting Pad, that queerly shaped thing released for Megadrive, SNES and 3DO.  If memory serves it's the same as the ASCII sticks from back in the day.
