An arcade stick thread

Great looking stick, and I agree it looks better.

Personally that's the worst looking one of the three. Looks like a low rent knockoff, the orange is awful.

[Wools]

I love the look personally, I like the bright colour much like the Hori RAP's green highlights.

second!

i'm just happy that hori now have some competion, we may see sticks getting slightly cheaper.

[hush]

I think it looks nice i would buy that

[randombs]

If Hori just made more sticks they'd get cheaper too!

As for that TE up there, it's really striking. The orange in the picture put me off a bit at first but I have orange sanwas myself and they look different to that image, so I'm sure the real stick will look fine. The orange colour will be like this

Was this pointed out yet?

Would perhaps be interested if it was the SE...

I think it was mentioned earlier in the thread but IMO its way too expensive thanks to typical lame straight $ to ? conversion. Plus, the fact you can get the Street Fighter TE for about ?100 now makes it look quite poor value.

Right now i have a hori real arcade pro 2 special addition, its great, bit sensitive for my crap playing skills, but one thing about it, its freaking huge and these days im looking to cut down. could anyone recommend a smaller but equal quality stick, arnt the madcatz ones quite smaller and thinner? cheers

Go for an EX2 and mod it with a better stick. Neil will sell you one of his

Got one of these PS2 to 360 controller adapters this morning. Given it only costs about 3 quid, I expected it to be terrible, but amazingly it actually seems to work really well. No lag that I can detect (from admittedly brief testing), and it works with digital PS1 controllers too, so I can use my Namco stick or PS Saturn pad on the 360. Going to play with it some more tonight, but first impressions are really good.

You need to plug in a wired 360 pad to make it work, but that's not a major hassle.

Please could you let us know how you get on with the PS Saturn pad. I would really like to use mine for some retro stuff on the 360. Have thought about getting one of the Madcatz SF4 pads for this reason but have read a fair amount of negative stuff about them. Being able to use the PS Saturn pad would be excellent.

Do you know whether a wireless pad using the plug and charge kit will do this or does it have to be the actual wired pad?

If there's definitely no lag i'll be getting one of those methinks!
