If you missed the initial run of Mad Catz’s excellent Arcade FightSticks, don’t cry?Play Asia’s taking pre-orders for new sets coming out later this year, sans sweet SFIV art, still $150.
Based on the technology of the Street Fighter IV FightStick Tournament Edition and designed for the serious fighting game enthusiast, nothing brings the arcade experience closer to home than the Madcatz Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition. The Tournament Edition features an unparalleled level of detail and uses arcade quality components. Sourced directly from arcade manufacturer Sanwa Denshi? the FightStick: Tournament Edition uses the same Japanese style ball-handled joystick and 30mm Action Buttons found in the official Street Fighter IV Vewlix?arcade cabinet, marking the first time such components have been used for a commercial product outside of Japan.
With the D-Pad control switch, dual Turbo functionality for each button, and exact button layout matching the Vewlix Street Fighter IV arcade panel, the FightStick: Tournament Edition delivers an experience unlike any other arcade styled controller. Complete with detailed touches such as screw on rubber feet for solid surface play, unobtrusive placement of the Start and Select/Back Buttons along with a locking mechanism preventing accidental activation of Turbo settings for tournament play, the FightStick: Tournament Edition represents the best possible choice for the hardcore fan.
