cool, is the pcb common ground this time

3

I may have to pick this up and sell my TE stick. For some reason I prefer the Hori stick over the Madcatz.

4

Joystick used is Sanwa JLF-TM-8T.
Just like the HRAP EX.

So that would mean?

5

That would mean soldered JLF lol

6

Oh yes.
For sure, I know that.

HRAP EX SE used Seimitsu LS-32.
So that is soldered too.

Just saying that the Hori PCB for HRAP EX SA will seem to be non-Common Ground also.
Comparing to how HRAP EX and HRAP EX SE was.

7

cool I have to add that stick to my collection. FYI amazon should be selling HRAP EX within 7-10 days so keep an eye out for that also.

8

AS already has these in stock and I just received my shipping notification.

9

They are completely sold out at Horistore. Not sure I would have bought one given I have two EX-SEs but I wish Hori would do longer runs on these sticks. Love the all black finish.

10

Hmm not anything special. Its pretty much the same exact thing as the EX with Sanwa buttons and an SA logo on it. I was hoping if they came out with this, it would have a different color scheme to it at the very least. The SE for example, I though looked great with the white case and black panel. I actually just recently ordered an EX and for a second I was about to go “NOOOO”

11

I am just curious if Sanwa will start selling those black OBSF-24…

12

you can buy those from akihabarashop, and i think lizardlick has em too

13

those are OBSF-30 that they have not the OBSF-24

14

Dang that stick is way too close to the buttons. But I can’t say for sure if it’d get in the way without trying it.

15

…wow and i had already ordered by buttons and stick, oh well i guess. i mean i will have the same thing once i mod my stick right?

16

Hori needs to stop being so racist and start selling directly to other countries.

17

as far as I know, neither Akishop or LL has the OBSF-24 in black. let me know if i’m mistaken.

18

Are you sure that isn’t just the regular EX with Hori buttons?

19

He was talking about the regular EX if you read his statement with what he quoted.

20

That looks nice, shame the cost of this unit will be be for the most of us start at $220+P+P.

The full black Sanwa buttons looks cool, wonder why Sanwa have only recently started selling them.
