This thread has become white noise.

Wait. Noise is already white. Really white. And short. Short white noise.



Dudes. It's not "Value" it is "Perceived Value".

This is middle school finance. You can't understand what people will pay for something as you don't live in their brain. You can guess, but it's only a guess. Economic theory is only a guess. Pricing theory is the exact same. Value is intangible.

You can base pricing theory on trends, but trends fluctuate. It's so simple: Perceived Value = What One Is Willing To Pay.

There is no "what's better?", it's what the buyer wants, and is willing to pay.

Gotta admit, I got a good laugh out of this. It's also true.

That's pretty much what I was trying to say, but much more succinct. Well done, Luke!

I got this decent stick for my SNES on the cheap,

I kinda killed two birds with one stone by getting this controller adaptor so that stick can be compatible as well with my 3DO,

That adaptor does it's job. No issues.

I have one of these joysticks. I think I bought it from Noiseredux. Neither the buttons nor the stick feature expensive brand name arcade components. I'll give it this much: that sucker is good and heavy for its size. The metal base lends this arcade stick some heft. I wish more arcade sticks were at least this heavy.
