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

yea it was a great deal. and he even threw in a carbon fiber dust washer and shaft cover. tbh the imperfections arent noticeable unless you look for them. looks stellar in person :slight_smile:

Definitely a great deal. Glad those buttons are working out for you!

Lovin the color choices!! Simple an Clean!

Stick came out awesome, congrats! Makes me wish I would have kept it instead of giving it to you! Doubt I could have done such good work with it though. You gotta teach me some of those soldering skills!

No it doesn’t. It weighs practically nothing! storms off

@grokslam, how does it feel? It certainly looks awesome. Sexy even!

I’m glad you didn’t keep it, man. ha! If you want soldering lessons… I have my iron. Catch me while I’m in town.

Thanks! I’m still wondering if I shold get a GT-Y [hexagon gate?] or not still.

it feels pretty good. its just a tad loud but that can be fixed. but yea its pretty solid, not frail at all.

I see what he’s doing, he’s buying up the Namco’s, trying to corner the market. This will artificially inflate the price of the sticks, driving them to the $300+ price, at which time he’ll unleash his stockpile and kill. Very sneaky there. :looney:

I want to see joysticks that have lights! eveyrbody with leds post! :smiley:

Only if that was true, i would buy all the namco’s in the world then resell lol.
But for fair one namco is for Raoul as i promised him and another member that have hard time getting any namco at all.

The beat up one is for me, Since the top metal is rusted as hell, will put custom artwork and plexi glass when Arthong as them ready and try to dual modm it like Netpuppy did.

Bencao!

teach me how to hook up led lights :frowning:

Greetings from Australia. I just came back from Japan and got a couple of those V3 sticks. Did a ghetto mod on one last night … here’s some pictures:

Pretty easy mod job. It’s pretty cool that screwing the JLF in gives you more or less the correct mounting height (maybe off by 1~2mm?) above the panel :smiley:

Awesome, it looks like you have confirmed that a JLF will fit using the existing holes with some additional modding to the gate at close to the correct mounting height based on this image:

Is there any way you could have used the Sanwa mounting plate?

And here are the pics!

Congrats Mark! What make are the buttons?

Button are like Crown, but not the quality.
Joystick is not Fanta either.

But the Arcade Stick is cool because of the changing LED color.
It tells you whether you in PS3 Mode of PC Mode.

Networking yuppy is my name. :stuck_out_tongue:

haha when I first read your name I thought it was guppy. Would be a pretty kickass name.

Markman, that Fanta Stick is… need I say… fantastic!:looney:
