But OBSF-30s will do fine if you prefer those.

Brawlstick uses the same great clone parts as the TvC stick. They don't need to be upgraded, especially for a new player.
There was a great in-depth review with teardown and comparison of the TvC parts to Sanwa, but I can no longer find the link.
I think you're grossly overestimating how many people have the disposable income to blow $300 on a game controller.
VLX's are still available. Hori must have increased production count seeing how popular the preorders have been.
That or its taking the longest to get the last 30 units AS said were available presold... Which I find hard to believe.
Of course Hori is still selling too and nobody has any idea how many they have.
People are lucky to have the time to save up or some people with preorders might be disappointed if preorders are being oversold.Hope this isn't another Zelda 3ds debacle.
Just over that if we don't count shipping cost. $50+ more with shipping costs included.
Debating biting the bullet on it in about a week, amazon.ca didn't even bother to give me an answer.

octo design is whack imo. Interested in how they play, though.
Do they even sell the gold ones that are in the picture on the main page? I'd love to get the balltop buttons with that gold color for my VLX.
I cant do snap ins, wood too thickI also prefer screw-in buttons, but the spacing is tight for lots of sticks, especially the Hori ones with Vewlix layouts. That said, I had no trouble snapping the HBFS-30s in and out of the HRAPV4...
what kind of wood are you using? If it's something softer like poplar, MDF, or particle board, you could cut the holes slightly small so that the snap in buttons were a snug fitI cant do snap ins, wood too thick

+tax or shipping for some people and the whole paint thing.
Gamerfingers feel sooo good
It takes a bit, but the packaging is cool when you order direct from them...
The Red switches feel great but they do not have a click to them. If you want an audible click, I recommend looking into the Cherry MX Blue switches -- you can order them from anywhere (Focus Attack, Elite Keyboards, etc.).
Awesome to hear. Haven't received a shipping notice for ours yet. :\
Heads-up, Focus Attack is going to have 15% off for part of the day Saturday.

I feel slightly irresponsible now as I bought two...I think you're grossly overestimating how many people have the disposable income to blow $300 on a game controller.
Picked up 2 new goodies today..
for just 30 euro.. happy.
Better safe than sorry anyway. If you have second thoughts, it isn't like the resale value diminishes.I feel slightly irresponsible now as I bought two...
Maybe those were part of the original Kickstarter? I have the black G2s, which are actually smoke/translucent. If the light hits them right, you can see the cross-type red microswitches inside, it's pretty sweet...
Back in January, I priced out the HRAP 4 and TE2 and the TE2 ended up being significantly cheaper. That was based on ordering at Play Asia at the time, though. Hopefully I'll have the TE2 in my hands tomorrow if the Purolator driver bothers to bring it on his delivery. Usually they just knock on the door and hand me a slip to go get it myself the next day.

How long was a bit for you? A couple weeks?
Phenomenal deal and dual modded to boot. I'm tempted, but I already have one!Lambtron just posted a dual modded VSHG for sale in the bst thread. Such a beautiful stick. Someone jump on it!

I know, right? I feel like it's every time I passed by my stick I had stopped to drum the buttons for a bit, haha. And I say drumming (as opposed to tapping) 'coz it's how the Reds feel, like little, tiny djembe drums.
Arcade Shock VLX are sold out.

I love seeing Namco Arcade Sticks! I ended up using mine earlier this week for some testing.
I'm about to move some stick parts into my Kai for the first time, do I just go thru the screws on the bottom?
Haven't done this since my TE1, what's a good way to pry off tight quick disconnects?
