There are several sticks with 'virtua' in the name. Which one are you looking at?

HSS-0104 and HSS-0136. The 0104 looks like the US one, but it has microswitches.

The Hori Fighting Stick SS is also good. HSS-07.

I am differently gonna have to check these out. I planed on building my own stick, cause after playing on my cab I can't go back to the old console sticks. I need microswitches!

Well that person is in Europe and it is an arcade cabinet sized controller for that model.

It would be cheaper in from Europe. That person's in the UK. The exchange rate is terrible for Americans, don't buy anything from there unless you have to.

It is on par with a NES Advantage. It has rubber domes for the stick and buttons. The others with microswitches are much better. But if you're cool with an Advantage, the black US Virtua Stick might be ok at the price for you.
