Arcade Fight Stick PlayStation 3

[Kevman]

Oh jeez those things are terrible. They don't last cuz the parts are cheap. My friend bought one, 2 buttons stopped springing back up. He sent it to Madcatz for repair and they once agin fucked up in a month. Well hopefully you didn't pay very much for it. I woulda suggest a QamBa stick! Just got mine for 140 bucks! So worth it! This baby works with PS3 Xbox360 and PC right out the box!

Was that without shipping, and if so where did you get it?

Not to revive this thread but if you plan on getting serious with the stick.. Purchase and octo gate arcade stick.. You will have to adjust, but in the end I think it would be worth it..

octogate sounds weird. HRAP has a square, and I actually like it a lot.

Square gate is standard for Japan... I think the octo gate is better for motions.. Square probably better for charge..

I was also going to ask about this. Sounds like about what I'd be looking for, but I don't see anything under 200 bucks at the moment.

Square is good if you want a more authentic Japanese arcade experience. Or if you plan on competing on an actual arcade cab

Charge based characters really do benefit from a square gate. Octo gates aren't my thing really.

For anyone considering a QamBa QRAF4, check out arcadeshock.com! They have them for 150 but can be knocked down to $140 with Socal Regionals promo discount which I believe is still in effect up to Jan 15 (you can also get some freebie KOF02 posters too)! I got mine and am very satisfied with it (I use it for 360, my MAME emulators on PC as well as PS3 right out the box). Please tell em CD AGES (aka Eddie Bogard) sent you

In reagards to shipping, they located in the heart of Socal (them seem to be one of the only 3 official vendors in Cali state for QamBa) so Cali resident shipping should be reasonable. Their customer service is also excellent!

I'm assuming the Hori HRAP V3 SA is square by default?

For sure. I have 2 HRAP sticks. One for the 360 one for PS3.

Ahh no wonder I suck doing Srks with it.. Lol.. I love my fight commander pad from Hori but I know eventually I'll need to use the stick..
