« 4Gamer Visits Sanwa Denshi To Check Out Noise Reduced Buttons and Sticks »

There have been rumors regarding popular arcade stick and button company Sanwa Denshi's noiseless hardware for a while. Recently Japanese website 4Gamer visited the company's headquarters to check out the new tech they have been developing.

All the work Sanwa has been doing has indeed been made to reduce noise dramatically. For the joystick, they have individual microswitches with a special harness cable that can connect to regular default Sanwa harness cables through an adapter. The buttons also recieved some upgrades to lower common noise.

Sanwa tested the differences with a Hori stick where they compare stock Hori hardware, the new tech from Sanwa, and stock Seimitsu hardware that can be currently bought. Make sure to check out the videos in the link and share your thoughts on it.
