A few of their peripherals were actually good quality. For example, some of the MadCatz fight sticks actually used quality arcade parts, some even with Sanwa construction. Too bad their brand was marred with lots of bad peripherals and products for people to realize it.
The arcade sticks were a bizarre anomaly, a shining beacon in a vast sea of paperweights and doorstops. I never understood how they were ever successful enough to buy Saitek.

RGB does nothing for me in all honesty, although it does make my computer time easier when my girlfriend is dazzled with a stream of rainbow lights!Golgatha777 - Tuesday, January 9, 2018 - link

My RAT7 mice are broken in multiple places - button, cable and overall exterior (now it is a sticky mess)I'd rather keep my RAT Pro X unused.
