Brooklyn, NY (Capcom, SNK, & Discrimanation)

also i got this nice little post in my profile today

the torrent store.

I was gonna go today but I didnt wanna be the guy with “spring allergy” coughing all over the place. LOUD! :wasted:

GG’s everyone.

Quick question guys, in the long run, is it better to learn to play a stick or just use a good gamepad? I’m considering switching over, I dunno yet though.

Theres a big learning curve on an arcade stick, but it feels better in the long run and you get to control your movement alot better. But theres a couple of good pad players, the thing that limits them is probably playing at arcades. But other then that, you should just try a stick out just to be sure.

ok thanks, i’ll see if i can pick up a good te stick on sale.

def. recommend switching to stick. i used to play on pad till last year when i joined this site and started getting serious. since then i got way better than i used to be. i still suck, but yeah, way better than i used to be. it’ll feel weird at first, but you just need to stick with it. best thing i ever did.

dat stick yo. no homo.

you dont wanna be the “pad scrub” now do ya :wink: that alone should motive anyone to learn stick. you have more control and over time combos become easier.

I hope I’m not too late to get in on this Brooklyn thing.

$5 this will be the last you’ll ever hear from this guy again. Who wants to take up on that?

thx for the feedback guys, i picked up a stick today, it is weird but the control is definitely more responsive.

lol yea, being the only pad player sucks :x

I’ll take that bet. No better money than someone else’s

got couple questions for ya also:

I havent found a way to get a stick for both systems (360 and PS3) and ive seen talks about modding and about converters. Which is the usual method ppl use modding/converters? If the answer is modding is there someone in Brooklyn/anywhere in NY that would be able to do that for me when i get my stick? If the answer is converter where could i buy one? i try searching online and i get random converters that are not for controllers (i know i suck @ searching)

Also If anyone knows where i can get super b4 release can u pm me? Im really excited bout the game dont know how much more i can wait :slight_smile:

Talk to Ben, Networkingyuppie. His info is in the first page of the thread.

for a first time user you were good with the stick

Woah, woah, woah. How am I a troll and LtzBen gets stick modding tips. When’d I become the bad guy? I’m a kitten.
