Wasn't aware the original TEs weren't sold anymore, will my two TEs work on my PS4 when they finally release a fighter for it?

PS3 TEs will work on Mortal Kombat X and Skullgirls when they are released on PS4.
Unfortunately it's on a per-game basis what hardware is supported. They don't work on Injustice or DOA5LR on PS4, for example.

Cheers.
Amazon seller price for these is a bit insane!

Only thing I could find were springs for sanwa and seimitsu:

But! if you put a Seimitsu LS-56 spring into a JLF it's about the same as the 2lb springs.
Awesome for people that loved the TE.
Where's that VS, though.
Actually, the only stick I'm likely to buy now would be a fightingedge (two TE2s, a VLX, and a custom all for ps4). I played on my ps3 version for the first time in awhile and forgot how much I loved it. That palm space. #hnng

Hey guys! So I was wondering what template to use for art on the HRAP v4 KAI? Does it use the same template is the v3 kai? Also, how did you add plexis and artwork to that bad boy with no screws?
Well
I kind of need this panel, I just picked up an Astro City for $100 and...well you'll see what I mean

!!!!!!!!!!Wow, just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.
Please be PS3/4 & 360/xb1 compatible sticks, respectively.
Also please mean restocks on basic colored te side panels, my beat up 360 te needs some loving and I would love a replacement white or black or smoke panel.
the guy I bought it from has another listed on eBay.

Oh my god, those prices are INSANE. And that one's even missing the actual coin slot!
These cost literally $15-$20 on YAJ. I bought one with a lower panel, and SHIPPED to the USA it was $70 total. Mine also came with the Astro insert for the instructions...
Just found a thread I made over at SRK about this very thing.

Aww yiss!

Why are there disembodied control assemblies on YAJ? I would think every part of the cab would be trashed if they were being disposed of.
Dunno! There simply are. The one I got was from a massive dump of parts from dead Astro machines. You could see tons of them in the background of the pictures.
I would say to not do the control assembly thing though. It ends up being kind of ugly, with the huge gaping hole in the back.
Here's my workblog of making my sticks, I think I've linked to it before...

Are the TE rereleases just going to be their original PS3 or X360 stick or the PS3/PS4 or X1 type they have now.
Also been reading about the MKX stick patch or whatever and it means I can use my PS3 VS stick on PS4 for the game if I choose?

Yes.
Live and learn I suppose. Obama paid for it anyway.
Soon.

Not the same template, Art's Hobbies should release one soon. As for the Plexi, you will need to remove the original image from the Kai. There is screws under and the plexi you will buy will come with holes/screws.

There's an RAP4 Kai on Amazon Warehouse. Someone go buy it or something.
Damnit, someone just did!

Nice I'll try to play MKX on my VS until my VLX arrives.
Yep.

It looks great.
Anyway, I should be good with 8x HBFS-30 and 1x HBFS-24 right?
I figure getting them from Akishop, they might arrive in time for the VLX. Kind of expensive 54 EUR for 9 buttons.
Someone already pointed this out on Shoryuken but check out the scratched paint on the bottom left of the stick. I'll be powder coating, stripping and polishing or chroming that piece for sure.

Got my buttons put in! I don't regret the choices I've made, as I rather like them. I also put a 2lb spring into the lever, though, strangely, the Kowal actuator didn't fit (as mentioned earlier in this thread) despite the Kowals we bought for our sticks at work fitting just fine. Did Hori make changes to the Hayabusa within the past year?

Some interesting tidbits about the Transporter XL:
- Unlike the preproduction bag in the photo above, the cutout for the lever is reversed in the production bag, so it won't stick into your back.
- The foam in the bottom of the bag is cut into a wedge shape to ensure a perfect fit with the VLX as well as to keep the bag from leaning.
- The production bag has a handle on the top and an improved accessories pocket (for mobile phone chargers, etc.)

Diamond is the only way I'll know I've reached the highest tier lol

So is the diamond a different metal or just a polish of the metal? Like could I polish my VLX to a diamond?
You could polish your way to a diamond, I believe.

That would be very labor intensive. Also, im sure there is a clear coat of some kind over the bare metal so it doesn't oxidize or rust.
I dunno. I assume when people talk about doing it, they know what it would take, lol.
I'm fine with it as is. I've had my VLX over a year, play on it plenty, and have no issues with paint chipping.

You know, stick talk tends to have unintentional innuendo most of the time, anyway. But this, taken out of context...
