Does anybody else have this problem with their Neo-Geo X?

When I plug mine into the docking station the joystick icon comes on up at the top of the screen but the joystick won't do anything. I have to keep turning the unit off and on, off and on before the joystick will work. I know the joystick works fine fine because it works like a champ with my PS3 and PC.

It's happened to me once and hasn't happened since with many hours of playing. Usually I turn it on and fuck off for a smoke before I play, when I get back everything is working. Maybe you need to leave it a few seconds after turn on?

Occasionally, yes. I find unplugging, waiting a few seconds, and replugging does the trick. Sometimes I have to do it twice.

I have a similar problem with mine. When I turn it on, it sucks ass. Not sure if there is a setting or patch for this. :crying:

That'd be nice, but I'm not sure what would need to be patched! Like neo_x7, I've plugged it into my PS3, and it works perfectly every single time.

I just received mine, and it has done it a couple of times now to me. As has been said, unplugging/replugging the stick seems to do the trick. A minor inconvenience, but hopefully one that is fixed in the so-called 'update' in April.

This happened to me after about a month of play. It was REALLY annoying, so I contacted Blaze and they replaced my docking station and arcade sticks.

I think the problem must have been with the USB connection on the docking station. They probably just asked me to send the sticks back as a precaution. I can't have been unlucky enough to get two faulty sticks. :lolz:

I have this same problem, and I found out what the issue is. If the handheld is not fully charged, the controller will not work. Once it is charged, it works fine. Odd

Save whatever dignity you have left and trash that pos. Go to bed, sleep and wake up and tell yourself that the NGX was all a bad dream and never happened.

Mine was doing this as well. I found the joystick would not connect until the system was fully charged, then it was fine. I found the problem was my ac adspter wasnt giving right voltage.

I bought a replacement oem ac adapter and have not had this proble. Since

Also the right direction on my neo geo x handheld joystick (not docking station joystick) stopped clicking. Any fix for that?
