Unsupported Fightsticks/Arcade sticks compatibility with xbox one

I don't really know in which category this falls into, so it might be on the wrong section. Anyways, arcade sticks are important as a controller especially in the fighting game community, however I've also noticed that some arcade sticks are supported
by xbox, but the problem is there is not that much too choose from considering they're mostly around the same price point and delivering almost the same product as the next. So this means that there are also other arcade sticks right? Well there is, but they're
not mostly supported by xbox so it need to be connected to the controller every time you use it to bypass security which is a big problem because when connecting that arcade stick to the controller, it becomes too much of a hassle with a xbox controller being
connected at all times and the other problem is that unless you connect another controller in to your xbox, the headset will be turned off or basically completely unusable. So my question here is will xbox eventually support these fightsticks or is there any
way to get around this problem?

Mortal Kombat X And Last Gen Arcade Sticks

News just in on the wire that Mortal Kombat X will support the use of previous gen fightsticks, at least for the PS4! WHAT?! Mortal Kombat X on PlayStation 4 Compatible with Older Arcade Sticks

I have two T2 arcade sticks that I bought for my 360 and I haven't been able to use them on my XB1, yet PS4 owners will be able to use PS3 compliant sticks on the PS4 version of MKX. I can't help but feel indignant.

How about you allow XB1 users with previous gen arcade sticks to also use their sticks for MKX, Microsoft? And while you're at it, allow the use of the same sticks on Killer Instinct. I won't be forking out the best part of 200 quid for another one.

 

Hi there,

Whether or not arcade sticks are compatible for the Xbox One is mainly up to the manufacturers to produce arcade sticks that meet the requirements for the Xbox One console and not the other way around. There are plenty of Microsoft licensed arcade sticks
out there from Razer or Hori you can check out.

The only other way you can potentially get around the problem is by using an Xbox Adaptive Controller and using it to plug in other external devices to then use on Xbox One.
