WTB Hori Fighting Stick (6 button arcade stick)

[GameFreak]

WTB- 6 button Hori Fighting Stick (arcade stick). I thought I saw one on ebay but it looks like it's gone. Anyone in the U.S. have one of these they want to sell. Is there anyone that owns one that can recommend it or not recommend it? Is it like a real arcade stick or is it a cheap knock off. Any insight would help. I've only seen pics. But if it is a quality arcade stick then I am looking to get one for sure. Thanks!

One of my side projects is to build a pce joystick, just no time. :-(

Hi

I have recently picked up a Hori Arcade Fighting Stick for my PCE and so far I am very impressed :-)

Here are a few of my comments:

* The case is made of metal which makes it very sturdy, it also has a nice sloping front with the joystick an buttons placed in nice proportion to the unit.

* The joystick movement has a very positive feel which is controlled by micro switches so it does feel like a proper arcade joystick.

* The fire-buttons are not micro switched and have a nice soft sponge feel, which I personally prefer.

* The unit has individual switches for rapid fires. (Off and 2 speeds)

* The unit has a "slow" switch which I have not yet tested.

* There is a switch to operate the joystick in both 2button and 6 button modes

If you have any other queries or if you want any pics of the stick let me know and I will try to help.
