Sorry, felt it was the most reliable place to ask.

Wow, that's an older one. At that price it's going to have Hori parts, which are satisfactory. The one big problem is that there are only used ones for sale, and sticks wear out with use. That stick is also 5 years old. In my opinion you're better off looking for something newer.

Dylan is on point here. This stick is no longer in production and hasn't been for some time so any that you'll find in the wild has most likely been through some degree of use. It has been replaced with another design from Hori for this entry level arcade stick. Perhaps you should look into that particular version. The Fight Stick V3

Works for PS3, 360 and PC. It's pretty freaking amazing. Gotta handle too so it's easy to lug around.

It we aren't talking about pads, a Saturn-style controller. I currently use a Brawl Pad to play Marvel 3, since I can't seem to play that particular game with a stick. But yeah, with any other game, I use the Qanba.

Just curious about whether you are still liking the QanBa Q4. I love the two I have.

I've actually got a number of local Gamestops selling them at 35 brand-new and sealed. Is it a good investment on the condition they're new?

If they are brand new then $35 is a good deal to me. If you need a decent arcade stick without having to plow down a good chuck change, then i'd say go for it. These sticks are based on their Hori EX brand of arcade sticks from back in the day. I still own a 360 Hori EX stick and it still works to this day. Is it my stick of choice? Not really. I own other high end sticks that get more use. But I can recommend this stick

Sound, man. Appreciate it. I actually just checked the Gamestop site and it's gone since I checked earlier, but found one second-hand/unopened for around the same price. It's either that or get a converter for my Tatsunoko stick and it'd set me back a bit more with shipping rather than just plonking down on a semi-reliable stick I can get comfortable with 'til it's time for something a bit more meaty.

Yeah, I still love it. Take it with me everywhere.
