There are really only two reasons I might suggest the 8-bitdo fight stick over this one and I'm not sure they're worth the $15 difference in price. The first being the 2.4ghz wireless option instead of just bluetooth, I doubt that's a big deal for the vast majority of people but I have one TV with a metal and glass stand that just chews up bluetooth signals and 2.4ghz seems to fare better. The second thing is the right stick/d-pad/left-stick switch on the 8-bit do is a dial and from experience with other arcade sticks with similar 3-position toggles they get loose after a while and it gets a little more difficult to hit the middle option after a while. But that's a pretty minor quibble.
Not sure how easy this is to customize or anything, but at $65 I don't think there's anything else out there that competes with it in terms of value and features.

I tried looking up the answer to this and came up short. It seems really silly for PowerA to make a fight stick that only works with one console though. Granted, the arcade stick community doesn't really seem to have picked up on this at all. All the reviews I found were free product reviews and only tested it with Switch games.
Most arcade sticks have a range of output options, usually X-input, D-input and the console it was designed for. I didn't see any evidence that this stick has a toggle for that. Maybe it's handled automatically through firmware? Like it defaults to X-input unless it detects it's connected to a Switch? I'm kind of hoping so.
Hopefully someone who's actually been hands on with this can provide more details, because at this price I'm starting to talk myself into one and being able to use it with a PC or RPi is a key feature for me too.
Note: I see that the Mayflash F101 only comes with a square gate but you can swap out with octo-gate easily, per the reviews.
