Sweet. I had this one thought in my head that the reviewers were buttering up the TE stick too much. Good to hear from a non-reviewer, mine will be here in 8 days and counting.

I do have one question though: Is this your first arcade stick or have you tried others?

Very nice,looks sweet. On a side not can anyone answer me one quick question ?



I have been playing on a pad like forever. I used to play in the arcade and was never as good there as I am with a pad. My question is, is it worth it to invest on a stick and give it a go at home or should I stick with the pad ?



I was thinking of either getting this or the Hori one.



Grats on your stick by the way, at least from a collectors point of view its a nice piece.

Without using it, I can say it would be much like using a mouse for the first time on a fps game. Yeah, you will probably be better with gamepad at first because you're not used to playing on it. But after playing a couple of days of SF4, i seriously know that if you want your thumb to last you have to get an arcade stick :P

So, i'm buying mine with that on my mind. If I'm better with it after time, which is possible because most pro fighting gamers use arcade sticks, then great if not i'll still be satisfied for the quality and arcade feel at home.

Grats man. I want one.

nice
