Fighter Stick V (not to be confused with a similar Fighter Stick V by ASCII for the PlayStation) is a multi-platform arcade stick created by Honest Soft.
The joystick is designed so that it can be attached to different consoles by substituting the connecting lead. Leads were created for the Sega Mega Drive and Sega Saturn, as well as the Super NES, PlayStation and 3DO, and its (presumed) original state, all six leads were included in the package.
Western distributors often chose to cut costs by removing leads they deemed unnecessary. Due to its release date, the stick was often just advertised as being Saturn and PlayStation compatible (or in the case of North America, just PlayStation, with the other leads needing to be ordered directly).
The device has been released as the Pro Arcade Joystick 2 by Blaze (being treated as a successor of sorts to the Pro Arcade Joystick) and Virtual Stick by Innovation.
