OOOOOOOOH, I can’t wait…or maybe i can!? I already know we’re gonna get raped on shipping on top of some ridiculous markup.

looks pretty

Do they ship to US addresses?

Unfortunately, I can’t read Japanese. Wish I could. And google translate won’t work on all of their pages.

Retail is 2,800 more than the HRAP3-SA.

that stick is sexy, no homo.

Why do I think thats ugly? Might be just the picture but it looks too narrow yet too long.
Might just be the image…it’s very hard to judge a stick by looks alone until you really use it.No homo

Besides the graphic, I think the stick looks pretty nice. Yes Homo.

Aside from the box design and layout, are there any major changes?

Looks cool and potentially closer to the Vewlix panel than the TE.

The start button placement looks like it could be a problem. With buttons 7 and 8 capped though, I don’t think it’d be any closer than on an actual panel (2p).

Is this only available through the Hori store?

Doesn’t seem to be.

So far, it’s the only place I can find it

I don’t like how the profile of the top & front surfaces stick out farther than the case itself:

nice. fingers crossed for a north american release.

Does it mean that this kind of stick will replace the current hrap design on all platforms?
Anyway it looks smart. It would be great if it was built with aluminum.

Interesting. I’m curious what the underside looks like (as usual). Also interested in knowing the weight and dimensions.

Any word on the Vewlix version of the stick?

Amazon, hurry up and carry this!

Where can I buy this

I like the look of this but I really hope its not the end of the Blast City/Astro City button layout.
