hori or MAS or other? In other words, Jap box style or American circle style?
How much? and why not just order online?
If Howison knew anything about arcades they’d have a HF and ST machine at OU. Those games for a quarter would make make so much money. And how much do those boards even cost in relation to any knew game? - which would also be a quarter to play.
It’s actually reached the point in which people will bring their own machines to the arcade and set it up to play for free. You would think that would be enough indication that they have shite games.
A lineup like this would probably quintuple their profits:
HF, ST, Alpha 3 (that works), Xmen vs SF, Tekken Tag, Tekken 5, Third Strike, KOF98, KOF2000, Point Blank, CvS2, MvC2, Initial D, Time Crisis 2, etc.
Now I know they have most of these games. Third Strike and T5 probably not…but shit it doesnt hurt to buy a new board every once and a while.
They have a stupid dilema that CvS2 makes lots of money at both Gonq and OU. hmm maybe getting another machine would solve this?
And if you’re going to throw in an old game @ OU: make sure its a good one not fucking SF3:NG or Xmen COTA…wtf
ok time to end the rant. It’s probably all too late to do any of this now anyway.
That stick is decent but a Hori would be waaay better and waaay more expensive.
I still think american sticks are better but thats likely due to my hands being way too big for a jap stick.
EDIT: Hori sticks dont seem to be as common anymore…
This looks siiick: http://cgi.ebay.ca/NEW-STREET-FIGHTER-15TH-Anniv-Arcade-Stick-4-PS2-X-BOX_W0QQitemZ160017577179QQihZ006QQcategoryZ41017QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
but I don’t know what its made of…but it looks damn good.
Ya man, that looks pretty rough…
Narith has 2 of these. Dont even bother getting this since the buttons concave up like no other.
Man I just realized…
If I’m going to make a cabinet for both PC and DC…that shit is going to be a bitch isn’t it?
I might have to hire Al as an electrician…
that stick is made by Nuby, and isn’t very good. nice to look at tho
thanks guys, Ill definitely be posting here every now and then. In japan right now, went to a-cho yesterday. Holy shit these guys are good. But no MvC2 though 
I mean, they have KOF 97, ST, Vampire freaking Savior, youd thnk theyd at have one MvC2 cab in there Oh yeah, and rows upon rows of VF5 and T5:DR cabs.
It’s a well known fact that Japan doesn’t take MVC2 seriously. A-cho is awesome. They’ve done tournaments for everything. Like Last Blade 2. Wish I was in Japan.
Sick, i want to go to japan too… it costs a lot of dolla though. Eat Ramen all day long.
that alone is enough for me to take a trip to japan :looney:
I want to go so I can race the yakuza for pink slips
gonq tonite 730 8 ish?
BEAT IT!! :annoy:
Yo go to Gamervision in Yokohama (if i was correct). U will always see the regulars.
Kokujin,Ksk, Ohnuki, etc. Kokujin is too funny. Just if u understood wat he said. Time to time u will see Nitto and Daigo.
I won my first Japan match, in freakin 3S as well! LOL. Thinking about it now, I think he lost on purpose so he could change characters. Whatever, I’ll take the win. Ottawa represent! lol
Gonq tonight anyone?
It’s been a long while…
ya might be down.
Might be down also. Just get enough peeps then i will go.
Sam, Steve, Myles,Al?

If u want to play some mvc2, theres an arcade that NKI was talking about in some tokyo forum. Apparantely Takayuki, Mitsu,ROm,etc plays there.
