If you were considering replacing your existing FightStick PCBA or building a custom joystick of your own, the Brook Gen 5X Fighting Board is one of the best ways to prepare you for the next tournament, no matter which modern console you're playing on.
As of now, the Brook Super Converter and Wingman series are allowed by EVO, one of the most popular global tournament events. Often EVO's policies are adopted at smaller tournaments. This policy is a tentative acceptance - should the converter become disabled via Sony firmware update before EVO, it could face a ban. You can learn more about it here.
