I was going to try a hitbox when they were first announced and asked to see if they could make them with Happ buttons. The makers came up with some BS excuse that the Happ or any other American parts can't be used because aparently, Japanese hardware gave the stick an optimal performance when they tested it.

I was more thinking of how long they last if that makes any sense lol

Because I've had my Hori stick for over a year with hundreds of hours and it's still in its original parts working amazingly well

My first hitbox (from around October 2011) is still in great working order. And I've done quite a bit of traveling with it. The only difficulties I've had came from having it custom duel modded. So it will be nice to have a back up for just in case.

I think this one will be green.

I can guess that from the ps3/pc cost of 159.99 it would probably run between 200-250 before shipping. The absolute lowest I can see it sell for is maybe and i stress the maybe 185.99 as they only have to install one board in it unlike dual modding with a ChImp.

Mine was $255.00. I spent the extra $10 for the cord that makes it run for PS1 and 2 though I sorta doubt I'll be using it. Still, not bad for a controller that's compatible with 5 systems!

These cost $225.

You also have to be on their list to be able to preorder. If you got the email, you are on the list. If you didn't get an email that means you are not eligible for a pre-order of one of these, and will have to wait until they start shipping them in June. I got the same email and then did some background checking and question asking.

I ordered one cause I want something official that I can use so I can start entering locals. I still have the one I made last summer, and am making another one from scratch, I just want the official one in case I fuck something up so I can still start playin tourneys.

They bumped up the price of about $50 from the original one, that's not bad since you can play it both on ps3/xbox! I've been waiting for this one forever!

250 is allot. they probably only pay $2 or less for the buttons buying bulk. Then if they use a paewang PCB that is forty. A cheap sheet metal box with 2 dollar of plexiglass. I guess advertising, and design add up. But they should go down the more they start to sell.

If you bought the $160 PS3/PC and got it dual modded, with parts and labor, thats over $100. $250 is a pretty good deal in reality.

They should just use paewang pcbs and sell them all multiconsole right out of the box. Do you think they dual mod what they have already built or just use a multiconsole PCB and start from new?

EDIT? Do they have there own PCBs made for them, or do they use other companies?

Its not exactly legal to sell them MC like they do, but until someone tells them to stop..... But Im not sure what they are doing. They use the same stuff we can buy and use.

I always wondered why they did not make fight sticks multi console out of the box.
