Important: This joystick is supplied without shaft / lever or bat top. Compatible shafts are available separately. Below you can find a list of the different compatible options.

The Crown CWL-309MJ-KMS-ST35 is a high-quality arcade joystick manufactured in South Korea by Samducksa Crown. It is especially popular among fighting game players and is highly recommended for titles such as Tekken, Street Fighter, The King of Fighters and fighting games in general.

The CWL-309MJ-KMS-ST35 offers smooth movement without defined corners, making it easier to perform precise and complex movements. Its Korean-style design provides a distinctive playing feel and a fast return of the lever to the neutral position.

Samducksa Crown joysticks use a high-density silicone rubber ring instead of the spring system commonly used in other arcade joysticks. This system allows the lever to return quickly to the center and is especially designed for 3D fighting games, being very popular among Tekken players.

This version uses an ST35 tension grommet with Shore A 35 hardness, providing balanced tension and a fast return to the neutral position. This system is especially suitable for games that require fast, consistent and precise movements.

The CWL-309MJ-KMS-ST35 maintains the characteristic smooth, cornerless control of Fanta-style joysticks, making it easier to perform movements such as QCB, QCF, HCB, HCF and full 360º movements.

The Crown CWL-309MJ-KMS-ST35 joystick uses an actuator configuration designed to provide precise and consistent response during gameplay. Its internal silicone rubber system provides fast response and facilitates repeated execution of technical movements.

Another highlight of this Crown base is the use of Korean Gersung GSM-V1623A3 microswitches. Each microswitch can be individually removed and replaced, allowing modifications and customization of the joystick's response and sensitivity.
