An arcade stick thread

[Nu-Eclipse]

I cracked and just ordered the huge HRAP3 Premium VLX stick. I think if I had to pay any delivery charges I would have left it, but I'm considering this an investment.

Where did you order from?

[Largo]

Those VLX look incredible, but a bit to heafy for me, as my hrap2 is already pretty heavy and cumbersome

Also that vlx is ye gods expensive

*edit* you know, i really think the stick manufacturers should really make them dual purpose, 360 and ps3, its about time anyway

Can't see any company wanting to do that being granted the official developer licence you need to get the security codes to make the thing work.

Reverse engineering is the only way anyone will get something like that to retail.

The HORIStore. You can't do that though.

Ahh good point, i forgot that the 360 drivers need licensing

[Supergoal]

The buttons are silky smooth man. Steel base too.

[speedlolita]

Lol, I've got tons of sanwa buttons don't you worry. But you're right OBSN are amazing.

[Nu-Eclipse]

I hate you!

[Supergoal]

There's only one more in stock at Hori too!

RE: Supergoal.

I'm looking to invest in one of these beasts, and just wondered what's it like when playing on the lap compared to the MadCatz TE?

Apart from acute deep-vein-thrombosis, is there any difficulties over the MadCatz stick?

[kernow]

Hori have actually released a whole vewlix F style cab in Japan, but tailored more towards ps3/360 use. 498,000 yen, pretty much the same price as the original vewlix F. No idea what changes they've made to accomodate consoles better as it was pretty simple already really.

[Super Monkey Balls]

That was a fail. No one's really sure what exactly they were offering that you can't get direct from Taito
