Check Out My New Arcade Stick! (No Image Quoting)

That is a beautiful case and will make a beautiful controller. Some white pearl seimitsus would be just the thing.

Back in 2005 I bought this HRAP SE along with the HRAP SA via the Japanese Hori store. Since I’m not really using them anymore, I thought about selling them. How much do you guys think they are worth? Both are boxed and in good condition. I even have the big ass carton box Hori used for domestic shipping in Japan.

I’ll agree with MarkMan and meus that of all the retail arcade sticks on the world I’d want most right now is the Hori Real Arcade Pro SE (followed by the Sega Virtua Stick High Grade S-Revision, but that’s another issue). I think you could easily sell it for $300.00 plus shipping and nobody would bat an eye (rather, they SHOULDN’T).

Yes, you can sell trade the SE to me :wink:

But try meus first as he doesn’t have one yet.

You stick-collectors (stick-jockeys? ;-)) are crazy, in a good way :clapdos:

<3

Really though, I would trade a LOT of shit for another SE lol. Not sure if I’d pay $300 though.

Man if u r going to sell it put on trading outlet thread and i will buy in heart beat or trade.

For 300 thats too much i can buy hss with that money. BUt i know they are rare too.

What Markman said u can trade or sell too. Markman thanks for putting me first to buy since i know u want another SE series. It always good to have double.

But can i say those rare sticks are hell of fun collecting and hunting them down.

I agree for 300 does little too much.

Haha, sorry guys; I’m not well-versed in price ranges for rare sticks, so I just threw out an arbitrary number that was twice the retail price of a Mad Catz Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition. Please do forgive me if I said something stupid. :pray:

Also, meus, you really found a Sega Saturn HSS-0130 for $300.00? That’s quite impressive! :clapdos:

ppl can find hss for good price but its hard. If u look around hard around u can get hell mint hss for 200 to 250 with everything box and manual.

Quick upload of my stick. This is a TE from early this year that I modded with a MC Cthulhu long ago. Finally got around to RJ045 modding this week and it’s sexyyyyyy. Keep in mind I’m not a ā€œproā€ modder like some of these ppl but I did a little bit of cleanup work on the inside. As much as I felt necessary.

Thanks to Toodles, Bomberman, Phreakazoid (from Chi-town) and anyone else who posted diagrams or instructions on SRK. You guys helped make this possible :slight_smile:

Need to clean that smearing up a bit:

An ā€œIn-Progressā€ BEFORE photograph…ewwww:

Shit, I love Neutrik:

Finally mounted the MC-C PCB instead of taping it down @_@:

Here’s the AFTER photograph:

Bam:

Thanks again guys. Happy modding.

Hey I just found this …you may have known about it already:

This is the one i have and its different from the one u linked.

well i went out today shopping and happend to stop by frys here in ga and decided to pick up a new stick…

…picked up a te stick and i must say i should of bought it along time ago…im going to do simple mods…gty gate…bat top art and thats it…

I never would have guessed that there was a Fry’s Electronics in Georgia, let alone two of them. Interesting.

i live near duluth and its like a 30 min drive away from me…they are selling them for 99$ still …

I can imagine that it’d be tough! Thankfully for me, I’m not hunting for an HSS-0130 at the moment. I’m more of a single-player stick guy since I don’t have any friends to play with. :xeye:

Right now, I’m saving funds for a Sega Virtua Stick High Grade actually. With Hori now sporting the Vewlix layout and Mad Catz and MarkMan scheming more Vewlixy goodness with some new FightSticks, I’m hunting down the last retail stick that was a haven for Versus City layout fans and 6 button fans alike. :rock:

I’m impressed RichL! It’s very rare nowadays to see Mad Catz Arcade FightStick Tournament Editions that have been multi-console modded. It’s good to see that people still care about the good old PlayStation 2 fighters! :tup:

Seriously sick Stick Markman.

I Would LOVE to see a thread about all of your sticks. I’d like to get an eduacation in some of the rarer sticks out there.

Thanks! I’m excited to finally get into GGAC. It’s a whole new world compared to SF4 haha

To have hss u dont need to have 2p stick u can always have 1p panel that is versus city 6 button panel. Like i have Ikagi. But its true what u said save money to get vshg stick later on.

Here is my soon to be project. clean up first then put Optical joystick with ps3 wireless pcb.

I can imagine! Guilty Gear was actually what got me into the whole arcade stick scene in the first place. I owe that series a LOT. Starting with Guilty Gear X Advance Edition! :lol:

Have fun at Frosty Faustings II by the way! I SO wish I could go, but I’d have to travel about half the US to get there. :grrr:

Represent for GG! :rock:

Oh absolutely, I know that the HSS-0130 doesn’t need to have a 2 player control panel. But I can’t imagine using such a wide case for JUST 1 player you know? Especially since I personally don’t have a place where I can just set such a huge thing down and leave it be. It’s the reason why I don’t want to get a Hori Real Arcade Pro V actually! It’s huge! :lol:

And I remember that specific HSS-0130 base! I seriously don’t understand how anyone would have been dumb enough to tape it up like that in the first place, but it’s definitely not something you can’t fix. One bottle of Goo Gone, a few cans of vinyl dye, and a lot of elbow grease should do the trick! :tup:
