Seimitsu LS-32 SS Arcade Joystick (New OMRON Switch Model)

Without a doubt the most sought-after joystick among arcade game lovers of Shoot 'Em Ups type games such as Raiden, 1943, R-type, Ikaruga and Gradius  and Beat 'Em Up such as Final Fight, Golden Axe, Kung Fu Maste, etc. Thanks to its short-medium travel and its smooth grip due to its medium-soft springs, this is the favourite joystick of retrogamers of the aforementioned arcade genres.

This is a high-end Japanese joystick and its tremendous quality makes it a direct competitor of the famous Sanwa JLF. It is no coincidence that this is the default joystick used in Naomi's Japanese Candys.

The Seimitsu LS-32 is a joystick that performs brilliantly in all arcade game genres. It also has an easily configurable restrictor in 2 / 4 / 8-way modes that will completely satisfy the most demanding and versatile retro players.

This particular model is similar to the LS-32-01 with the difference that the microswitches are not soldered to the PCB and that the mounting plate is the SS instead of the SE. Otherwise, it is exactly the same as the LS-32-01. The connection to the USB encoder is made through its faston connectors in an identical manner to Happ / Industrias Lorenzo joysticks.

This particular stick model is mounted on the Seimitsu SS mounting plate. This mounting plate is specifically used to mount Seimitsu joysticks on most commercial Fighsticks / Arcade Sticks. The Seimitsu SS mounting plate is useful when our Fightstick has some type of mounting bracket that prevent using the flat SE mounting plate. Using the SS mounting plate would bring the joystick as close to the surface as possible.

This joystick is suitable for both wood and metal panels. At Arcade Express, we sell an extension for the joysticks handle in case it is too short.
