The stick's design draws inspiration from the Neo Geo CD controller, and it can switch between Arcade Stick Mode and Console Mode. In the former, users can plug it into a Neo Geo Mini or PC and use it as a standard arcade fighting stick. In the latter, users can connect the hardware to a display device with an HDMI cable, with options to connect Neo Geo Mini controllers or another Neo Geo Arcade Stick Pro for multiple players.
