Way Better than the manual lead me to believe it was

Please ignore my last review. I read the old manual it came with and wound up going down a rabbit hole. You don't necessarily need a PS2 keyboard to configure it and mode 3 and 4 actually sends X-input and D-input. Windows 11 automatically sees it as 2 game pads or keyboard, and a trackball. Many of my old games needed no re-configuring at all.
I would love to give it 5 stars but I settled on 4 because of the old manual it shipped with. Also, it would be nicer to have the buttons and switches that are on the back on the side or front instead. This would have made it just plop in seamlessly with my home built arcade cabinet.
X-Arcade contacted me in less that 3 days with solutions and link to information I might need. Their quick response was very impressive. I will definitely be doing business with them in the future!!

Absolutely love this Tank Stick Max. Works perfect for MAME and a whole lot more. Amazing paired with our 100” laser TV. So much fun!! So many game options with the 2 player sticks and buttons, trackball and spinners. Awesome quality parts. Highly recommended.

Nearly Obsolete Design

I really should of done my homework before buying this but I saw the $50 dollars off and then the additional 20% and jumped at it.

The problem is that, out of the box it only sends keyboard signals to the a PC. The default key it sends can easily be struck in a way that sends window 11 short cut keys to the OS. I tried to play an old version of Tekken and immediately got the "Sticky Keys" accessibility menu. Then while trying to configure MAME the screen kept flipping 180.
I planned on going to the Goodwill and trying to find an old PS2 style keyboard to remap the keys and then I realized I have some old game consoles and games that need X-imput to work. I mistaking assumed the 4 mode switch on the back was for Default, keyboard, X-imput, and D-imput. They are not.
Now I'm stuck buying $100 dollars worth of adapters to try to make it work the way I expected out of the box.

Live and learn I guess.
