2023 was truly the year of Haute42, a company that has produced so many slim and affordable leverless controllers, and other companies performed well too.
The Paragon is a wooden stickless controller that has its own layout (unless you choose the standard layout).
The Caster Acrylic & Resin Fightstick DIY Enclosure by Raw Super Arcade comes in Vewlix, Noir, all button, and other layouts.
The DRMFTG DRM FL packs a lot of innovation, including many layouts, if you are willing to primarily use it on a desk.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect about the Sunga G1 stickless controller is that it has five more buttons than what we are used to.
The Slab MX is a bigger version of the bestselling Slab Mini, and it comes with innovations like rubber bumpers.
When not making wooden accessories for tech, StepUpSFF makes stuff like the Retro Lever-less Arcade Controller (also in WASD format).
The FightingBox Mini WASD controller allows you to choose the colors of its keycaps and switches as well as its LED settings.
The GRS Super Joystick is officially licensed by SNK, features Ikari Warriors artwork, and has a rotary joystick.
