Déjà vu, At this price I could not stand it and bought a second one. The second purchase had a huge label showing the discount price. The box was on the floor, why advertise like that and then place where no one can notice it? As soon as I walked up the register, another customer asked where I got it. Peeling back the sticker reveals older price tags stacked up, goes all the way up to $79.00!

Actually a hidden agenda getting a spare, I plan on modding it and looking at different approaches. For now I gave both the sticks a test run, popped the hood and posted a Review. I also tried out an initial check of a mod using jumper wires. When I do the full mod on the stick, I'll update a Guide in my Wii Gamecube Thread.

Not too shabby. I had five of these things at one time for modding projects. Sold three on here and kept two. I got in on my first 4 from that crazy Gameshark.com sale last January - $83.99 shipped!

Yeah, same shell, stick and buttons, just diff colors and overlay. A nice stick for the price, unfortunately so few games for wii are fully compatible with it.

Supports only single stick Classic Controller games. I added game support.
Tatsunoko Capcom Stick + Toggle Switch = Dual Stick Geometry Wars!

Stage One of the Mod is done!

Do you mean no jumper pak? The transfer pak is the thing that lets you import pokemon to pokemon stadium.

Yep, screwed that up. Haha just a brain malfunction for a second.

My wife got me some artwork for my Atomiswave games (valentine's gift) - super stuff on thick cardstock and glossy / vibrant prints from Southtown. Have to cut the rest of them down yet, but an improvement was drastically needed as you can see in these pics:





And my other goody, DoDonPachi Bee Storm w/mobo:

I would like to point out to anyone curious about those Wii arcade sticks we are all talking about, the buttons and stick are better quality than the SSIV version, I have both and have compared them myself. The TvC buttons and Stick are nearly identical to Sanwa Parts, all the way down to the adjustable gate to convert it to 4 way. The SSIV version looks different and feels different. The only difference I can tell between the Sanwa and the TvC buttons is the Sanwa are a hair more sensitive, resting your finger at all triggers the button. I think I will do a little comparison to illustrate the differences.

Bought a used copy of Radiant Historia from Amazon Warehouse last week. Came in today and turned out to be a First Run edition of the game

The outer box was opened, but the inner box and music CD are still sealed

I picked up some stuff this past week. Picked up a NES lot that had a console and about 25 games for 40 bucks. The best games in it were Castlevania 2 and 3, Lolo 1 and 3, SMB 2 and 3, Donkey Kong 3, Punch Out, Gradius, Metroid (yellow label), and Ninja Gaiden 2. Also picked up some games off a friend who needed cash. For 50 bucks her gave me Vagrant Story with music disc PS1 CIB, Dino Crisis w/ Resident Evil 3 demo disc PS1 CIB, Galaga Destination Earth CIB, Pokemon Fire Red cart only, Pokemon Leaf Green cart only, Pokemon Sapphire cart only dead batt., Pokemon Emerald cart only, Pokemon Heart Gold in case with manual but no outer box or pokewalker thing, Luminous Arc 2 in case with manual and worn outer box with music cd in a generic sleeve, and Zelda Oracle of Seasons and Ages cart only. Only sad part is that I don't like Pokemon games lol. Guess I can trade them.
