Best place/website to get arcade stick....

[MistaTCR]

Just wondering where to purchase a new arcade stick and which ones are worth getting?
Where did you guys get yours?

[HoneyBadger]

It depends on your price range. Some of us have built them ourselves, I'd say the best stick you could buy on the market would be the TE but that's like $400.

[MistaTCR]

How do you build one? Like buy the parts individually? Yeah $400 is abit much for a arcade stick.

Unfortunately if you want to build yourself a really good stick it'll cost you damn near $400 anyway.

I think playasia have a few hori or similar sticks available now for reasonable prices though? Might be your best bet, although I have no idea how much the shipping will be...

much better, much more spendy


I'm almost tempted to get a bunch of the first one as a bulk order and sell them on, people seem to keep wanting them.

Shit, thats KOFXII art on there. I haven't heard anything about any significant KOFXII sticks dropping. And from that trademe post, its hard to gauge the quality. But yea, flux might know.

im thinking of buying it aye, that and the parts of lenny, i need a stick reaaaaaaaaaal bad lol

[fluxcore]

Hrm, never seen or heard of these before. Pretty sure they aren't legit, and can guarantee they aren't sanwa or seimitsu parts. Might be easily  moddable, might not...

Ask the guy what brand they are maybe? He's a good dude (stan from firstgames.co.nz)

I was about to mention my "limited edition kof stick", but yeah, it's not a stick, it's a piece of crap.

Heres a link to a similar joystick i bought from ebay. The seller is extremely quick to respond and the parts are indeed genuine Sanwa items.

Works out to be $270NZD landed and this ones actually got a much more solid case (solid pine apparently) and is layout is Viewlix.

Cant go wrong really for you guys that dont wanna spend $400+ shipping.
