Sorry to hijack but... A good affordable stick that can be used on a ps3 for ps2 games, anyone?

A good affordable stick for ps3 would be the hori fighting stick 3 (here for example). The good thing is that they're really the only sticks that are sold in brick & mortar shops here in Ireland (gamestop etc) but they're not necessarily the best sticks on the market.

I'm pretty sure they work on ps2 games via back compatibility but that would have to be confirmed

whats the story with this stick : http://www.gamechn.com/UploadFile/-200903091205u15.jpg

That's a Mayflash, though it goes by many names. Cheap (<€35 IIRC), moddable. Check SRK for the guide.

Ry don't be getting a 360 stick when you're on PS3, SSf4 wont be on pc for a while after the console versions, thats if they even release it on PC (the fookin BETTER :mad:)

I'm planning on getting the Xbox for the release of the new one when it comes out. A bit backwards I know but meh.

Alright its just there's a m8 of mine who like SF4 but is still only very casual about it. He was stuck on the 360 pad and wasnt arsed learning to play on that. But he's thinking of getting a ps3 and while a ps pad will be a big improvement for him he was really impressed by my SE fight stick when he saw it but wouldnt be anywhere near up for spending 70 euro on a controller. I saw that for 30 euro alright just wondered if that'd suit. Or fall apart out of the box.

I'd say it would have to be modded to be in any way decent though, so thats gonna add to the price. Maybe he could check out a hori fighting stick 3 in gamestop. They're cheap enough

I think they're not officially released in Japan until christmas eve! Not too sure of the price but the viewlix model is nice

K.O.Kiki

I think the Vewlix model is vulgar TBH, the HRAP V is a much cleaner design.
And the V3/VX models looking like they'll come along nicely.

Do you think they'll change the length of it? The demo model was horrible but I assumed they'd fix it?

Remember that time at said Rathfarnham Rumble where I was one round away from being whitewashed and then suddenly came back and didn't lose a round and beat you?

You chose to use pad fool. I was more than content kicking you around with Pad but you preferred Pad because it was less effort, so you got kicked around with that instead

That is the laziest Chun cosplayer I ever did see, Farz.

Due to my brothers bothering me what I'd like for Christmas/Bday and not wanting socks, I'll be getting a TE Madcatz in and around Christmas.

So as much as I love it I'll be looking so sell on my SE, as it's just gonna sit there unused and unloved.

Only a few months old and never missed a beat.
I've modded the buttons with Sanwa 30s and the stick with seimitsu LS 32. (All a lovely shade of turquoise Honda blue.)
Still have the stock buttons and stick as well as well as original packaging.

All in all mods and stick cost me around €170 (I bought when the stick came out.)

I'm gonna stick it up on adverts in the new year for around €100, but I'm putting it up here for first refusal and will knock a few quid off to any fighting game regulars who may be interested.

(To buy a brand new one from Amazon with stock parts and delivery costs over €90.)

So if you're considering a stick, there's a bargain to be had here.

Might be interested Paul but I'd have to get back to you!

No probs dude,

Do you not already have a SE modded to near the exact same specs as mine though?

Dreddybajs

Yeah, I do - think one of my friends who's currently using a battered EX2 that I donated to him might like it as a birthday present though. Will get back to you asap anyway, but if anyone else is interested I'm happy to cecede to them as I'm not sure if I can take it.

Ry

Right I just placed my pre-order for a Round 2 with amazon.co.uk. Estimated delivery is around 3rd of February. I'm ok with that since It'll be all black and coolz. I'm kind of excited for some reason but anyway. I'll tell you how it goes more when it gets here.

Ry

Well amazingly it came early and I've got it way before I thought I'd have to wait for it so I'm chuffed I decided to go for the round 2.






Thanks to KenB for showing me his cuz tbh I fell in love with it at Lanparty there last year and had to get one when they were available. It's a weird change going from what I was using one of these :



The circle gate bat top and straight line heavy press buttons to square gate ball top curve line is odd but I know it's just a matter of practice.

Thanks again for everyone's input and guidance. I appreciate it!

Nice one Ryan! Glad you got it. Prepare for a new love in your live :P

Generally Amazon won't ship outside their region, so amazon.com is USA and Amazon.co.uk is UK & Ireland.

Dreddybajs

amazon.co.uk will definitely ship sticks to Ireland. The SE 360 is probably more expensive because they need to licence from Microsoft for peripherals to work on the 360.
