Don't hold your breath for this one - I had an order in forever until I finally cancelled.

Hori is releasing a Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 stick that is most likely the same as the above for $149.99 (fairly shortly I believe).

Is it possible to see the various options? It'd be nice if there are buttons that can do automatic hot keys such as special moves =)

lolwut?
Sorry dude, I've seen so many hackers now a days that modded their buttons to do a certain target, I was pretty much thinking of Street Fighter Alpha 3 for the PlayStation Portable where you press the select button, it automatically does a special attack without the need of actually performing the actually command ( which made characters like Barlog broken because they can keep spamming their attack without holding back 2 seconds or making it much easier for Zangief to do his super attack since it requires you to rotate twice and you don't have to do that )

well....if you want to be cheap....then I have no solution for you...

That's what it looked like everyone else was doing the way they were able to pull those combos together.

Anyways, thanks for the feed guys, I'm probably going to head to GameStop *gasp* and take notes to see what kind of crap they have over there. Afterwards I'll probably get a Mad Catz fight stick for the PS3 on eBay where I do 95% of my shopping ;)

but I still have the conflict between getting the fight stick vs getting Batman Arkham City.... >< gah!!

ASK at the counter of GS if they have any sticks hiding on a shelf or out back. I got my MadCatz stick for $35 that way and it was still wrapped in plasic and minty fresh. It had gone down to clearance but they forgot to take it off the overstock shelf.

:roll:

actually it went like this:

me: Great! I'll take it!
GS1: Awesome! I have one too and I love it.
GS2: Me too! I'm surprised it's sat here so long.
me: Yeah I'm excited cuz I thought I'd have to spend a bunch on a stick.
GS1: What fighting games do you play?
me: Oh so far I only have SSF4. But I'll mostly be using this for "space shooters."
GS1: Have you played the new Mortal Kombat?
me: No, is it good?
GS1: if you like the new Street Fighter, you'll like the new MK. It's the same 2D style.
me: Nice! Thanks for the pleasant exchange.
GS1: Sure, have a nice day!
GS2: See ya later, man!
me: bye!

Maybe it's just the areas, but the two times I've been in GameStop, I was never asked anything at all besides the "can I help you with anything?" and "will that be all?".

Depends which one I've been to, there are like 4-5 in my area ( I live in a little country town with a lot of medium cities around me, just about each one has a Game Stop ) so it varies, none of them as exaggerated as I mentioned :P

Is this a good choice right here? I was seeing a lot of recommendations for Mad Catz and they said this one was mint.
