yup,…all 8 ways do…so that you know where the corners are etc etc…cancel that shit now…im serious, shit id give you the extra 10 dollars not to get baited by the one your ordering…baited
try and cancel the order I play on the real arcade pro and its a good stick. My stick is better but its hella baited right now lol :`(
I’ll try, the only way this is gonna work is if they havent charged it yet to my dads credit card, otherwise if I cancel and the credit card has been charged, then well basically I get a 35$ deduction from my order leaving me with 35$ (because I also bought that 3’rd party controller converter for the xbox) so I’d need 65$ to get that tekken stick 5 stick and the converter(because I dun have ps2) and pay for shipping, lets hope they havent charged it yet, otherwise I think then I’m stuck with it.
:*(
Dont worry about the stick. Just get it, play it and get used to it while you save up the cash to buy a new one from one of the guys who makes sticks here (Dreaded Fist and Finkle look like they really know their shit), or the QCF site. Besides, if all else fails you can easily replace the parts over time. One month replace the stick, next month new sanwa/Seimitsu buttons, and so on. Though, the parts separately are stupid cheap you can more than likely get all the shit you wanna mod in one purchase, barring a P360 whichll run you damn near $50 by its self (I really want onedamn being poor sucks).
But Ive never played on the one youve got, so Im no authority on itbut I dont think itll be half as bad as people are saying. The only thing thatll take time getting used to is the eight way, and Ive see few probs with those when playing 2d fighters. Just gotta get used to it.
PS: Even if that stick sucks major ass, itll be better than a pad, guaranteed :tup:
Welp, looks like all should go well they didnt charge it (in fact they said on the accnt that they werent gonna charge it for like another week.)and so I sent them an enquiry asking them to delete the hori and add the tekken 5 stick, phew! lol. I should get an email from them in within 24 hours.
Ok, if you want a decent stick but don’t want to go the custom route (Byrdo’s or Dreaded Fist’s sticks), you’re probably going to want to mod whatever you get. You could get a MAS and they’re nice, but eh, a bit too pricey IMO. Me and DJ built our sticks for around $70 with converters, I think.
The HORI stick Jeremy’s talking about did feel really nice, but I prefer bat tops on the stick. =\

That’s $40, but I don’t know about the soldering. It may be SHIT like when we bought RO sticks, therefore requiring you or someone else to re-solder stuff. =( I don’t recommend the RO stick. Modding plus a converter makes the cost too high.
Do you want artwork? If so, go custom…
Ebay has great prices on HAPP parts, also.
I say buy something that won’t requre modding, like the HORI Pro. =)
P.S. You don’t need a P360. I love them, but damn, they cost too much. =( 8-ways are fine.
Hey Demetrio, what about the sticks you were selling? Did you change your mind or what?
PS
Don’t hate pads. I would probably beat you with one of them in any game, except MvC2. Now that requires a stick to enhance mashing. 
FUCK P360s!! :tdown:
I’m a hater, so what!
Hey Lando, is it as good for you as it is for me??
Hey, just given a shout out from ABQ. So when and what kind of games do you think we could get going? How many people are willing to play, and did you want to run a tourney, or what? When would it start, and would we be able to come back the same night?
If your stuck with the stick it wont kill you its an ok stick. Besides my korean stick is the best so dont worry about it.
Ok, exactly what day are you planning on coming down?
All you EP guys, post up so we know what day will yield the most players!!
I’m up for a tourney. It should start early, say, 3 or 4 PM, so you can get back home the same night. Where to play…everyone post up your thoughts ASAP.
We’ve gotta get a lot of people, make it a decent tourney!!
Oh, I can also get the results on APEX. I won’t run the tourney, though, lol. =( Did anyone ever find the last tourney’s results? I should stop by Kix’s…
Yeah, but the thing is, you’d slap me around even more with a stick. Sticks >>>>>>>>>> Pads
hes not THAT good…
Kaneda > marcus :nunchuck:
=P
ps thnx for the saske figure ruis san :karate:
im down for a tourney anytime after 5
about 80% of 360s come with empty angles, cough, cough, fernie’s, cough!
but they are hella quicker than 8ways.
hey all… i posted in this thread a while back saying i’m moving down here to el paso in august/septmember from cali. looks like it’ll be around sept 1st.
well, i’m flying down this thursday (staying until monday morning) with my family to check it out and get an apartment for me and my bro. i will have some free time while i’m down there. i guess i could start by checking out the local arcade (i hope u guys have one lol). if so, could u list the address so i can mapquest it? play 3s mostly.
any other things i should check out while im there? only have a short time, but would like to get a list of some places when i do move there.
anyways, looking foward to flying there and meeting some of ya
latez
ONLY A MONTH TO EVO BITCHES GONNA TAKE SOME EL PASO COOKIES!!!
I’m going to be in El Paso in Nov/Dec later in the year. Some questions:
1] Which/any arcades there have 3S?
2] If there are some do they use JP or US sticks?
Thanks in advance.

Registration is now open at http://www.tekzonegaming.com/lan until July 15th at 12PM for $15/event with the exception of the fun contests. The registration entry fee will be increased to $20 after that and at the door. I can take paypal payments and am available to meet for local payments.

Still looking for more input on some more fun events, there was a head shaving scheduled for the last SWAG event but it didnt happen so that may be a possibility.
Prizes are still pending as sponsors are dragging their heels this time around for some reason, if worse comes to worse then prizes will be cash, who cant use some more cash? Very Happy Please spread the word, we are doing all we can to make this a great event and look forward to seeing everyone there. There will be food served for a cost by our host. Official rules and prizes will be posted by the end of the week.

Cez and mike, you fags can guaranteed take that tekken tourney. free money! so join!
alright guys tekken 5.1 is released in japan!!! here are some changes!!! sounds like a whole new game!!!
- CHARACTER UPDATES -
Nina Williams
- u/f+1 can not be used in longer juggles now, the speed of the move has been decreased.
- u/f+1 is also techable when used in juggles.
- d,d/b+3 is no longer safe
- JF spider knee with Nina is no longer safe.
- d/f+1,2 has delay on both hit and block.
UPDATE - Not many people were playing her so not that much is known, but u/f+1 execution is definately slower.
Steve Fox
- d/f+2 does not launch.
- Infinites are gone.
- CH ALB 2 does not stun.
- b+1~B FLK b_f+2 is gone.
- CH 1,2,1,2, and 2,1,2 no longer launch.
- 1,2,1 and 2,1 into FLK~ALB is gone.
- Juggles after d/f+1+2 hits close are no longer possible.
UPDATE - He seems like a normal character now, compared to others his was one of the most drastic.
- d/f+2 launches on CH only now.
- d/f+1+2, d/f+1+2 combo is impossible.
- b+1 CH into stun still exists.
- 1,2,1~B into ALB can not be done.
- FLK jab into ALB still exists so he can still do many of his combos.
- Next to wall if ALB 2 connects the 1,2,3~4 is toned down???
- The properties of the double ALB low punch seems unchanged. No juggles will connect by walls.
- It seems as juggles after d/f+2,2 don’t connect anymore.
- Overall he has been toned down but people that played him still feel he is very strong.
Bryan Fury
- b+1 does not launch on normal hit.
- CH WS+3 stun can not be escaped.
+/- 1+3+4 taunt and f,b+2 punch remain the same.
- f,f+2 has more delay.
- 1,2,4 has more delay.
- <wall> 1,2,1, d/f+3 catch no longer works.
UPDATE - b+1 on normal hit forces crouch status on the opponent, does not juggle.
- WS+3 on CH can not be escaped, you can not launch them however. Standard combos do work, and can do up to 40% damage. Very strong.
Devil Jin
- TGF used in juggles can now be linked to TGF~U/F for the extra move like when TGF~U/F hits standing opponents.
- Devil Jin seems to be the best as of now. Not that many changes.
UPDATE
- TGF~U damage seems toned down. It does not allow good oki. Just a nice combo to end the round with.

- SS+4 block stagger gaurantees pretty much anything for the opponent.
- b+1 on block is -10 but it does push back a bit more.
- The d+4 stomp in juggles has been weakened. Opponents recover much quicker when this is used on the ground or in juggles.
King the 2nd
- f+4 on normal hit can cause wall stun. On CH causes opponent to fall down. Free ali kick after CH push back.
- Tombstone throw(d/b,f+2) now recovers faster and gaurantees a free ali kick when it connects.
