Performance

The Juryo uses Qanba Gravity KS buttons, which are snap-in buttons that are easy to install and remove. The Omron linear switches give you that tactile feel with a fast response due to their short actuation.

If needed, you should also be able to install buttons from the following brands on your Juryo:

  • GamerFinger
  • Crown
  • Enth

You may be able to install buttons from more brands as well. You can even request a custom layout if you play modern fighting games. For example, you may need more buttons on your Juryo to pull off certain mechanics.

Moving on, function buttons can be found in the back of The Juryo, which is good placement to prevent you from pressing them accidentally.

Basho Fightsticks chose a good size for The Juryo. While it is small, you can enjoy the controller even if you have Kawhi Leonard hands. Also, a couple of pads can be installed on each side of the controller’s bottom to stop it from sliding off your lap or desk during an intense set of matches.

Hardware

The Juryo has a clamshell latch design that is free of screws. The case is 3D printed with a delta-style printer called the Super Racer. The print quality is nice and snug with no rattling. While the controller is robust, it is not heavy.

Originally made with the Raspberry Pi Pico in mind, Brook PCBs would be a tight fit for The Juryo, but they are still possible, providing you diverse compatibility.

On the bright side, The Juryo has a USB-C port, which is the community’s favorite. By the way, if you go the DIY route, wiring the controller may take you a little less than an hour. Otherwise, you can order this bad boy preassembled.

Appearance

The Juryo is reminiscent of a toolbox. You can have embossment on the bottom of the case, and if you fully customize the colors of your controller, you can choose the colors of components that include:

  • Case
  • Buttons
  • Latch
  • Cable

For example, if you are from Kuwait and would like The Juryo to feature your country’s flag colors, you can try going for a green case, white buttons, black latch, and red cable!

Conclusion

The Juryo brings a whole new level of innovation to fighting game controllers without sacrificing efficiency.

  • DIY or preassembled
