Additional Features

• Console interface modes for manually switching between each console. Will save last selected console in memory.

This is now required for Capcom Pro Tour compliance. Your chosen mode is saved in memory until you change it.

If you were considering replacing your existing FightStick PCBA or building a custom joystick of your own, the Brook Gen 5X Fighting Board is one of the best ways to prepare you for the next tournament, no matter which modern console you're playing on.

Tournament Acceptance

As of now, the Brook Super Converter and Wingman series are allowed by EVO, one of the most popular global tournament events.  Often EVO's policies are adopted at smaller tournaments. This policy is a tentative acceptance - should the converter become disabled via Sony firmware update before EVO, it could face a ban.  You can learn more about it here.
