Performance
The main highlight of the performance of the Real Arcade Pro. Premium VLX Hayabusa is the inclusion of Falcon buttons. The main highlight of the performance is the inclusion of Falcon buttons. Hori went back to the design phase in order to develop buttons that have less travel distance with a matte texture that is easy to press. The result is faster activation and a quicker response while ensuring that the experience is ergonomic as possible. That is because the previous installment featured sharper buttons that were harsher on the fingers after repeated usage, and fighting gamers are known for their churning and grinding to take their game to the next level.
Hardware
Although it is not necessarily advertised on the box, a PC will read the arcade stick just fine, meaning that it is compatible with three platforms in total. When it comes to opening up the arcade stick, it is actually quite easy. All that is needed to do is remove the three main screws in order to gain access to internal parts for easy maintenance or any other endeavors that the owner would like to undertake.
Appearance
From the very first moment one lays eyes on the arcade stick, it is evident that it is quite the masterpiece.

It does the Vewlix layout justice, and the sheer width of it makes arcade fanatics feel right at home.
