Korean arcade parts discussion

Cheaper price than Sanwa and Seimitsu buttons but will likely cost and arm and a leg to ship it here in the states :smiley:

Interested in the Saint Lever though. Kinda wish I didn’t jump the gun and bought that Myongshin Fanta.

that button looks very promising, plunger size reminds me of hori kuro tho, looks to be bigger than 203/207’s

If I could swap those parts with OBSF-30 parts and vice versa that might be a great purchase. I own a lot of Sanwa buttons and I have never heard of those switches but want to try it out. If those buttons are nice -and I hope they are- I might try them out with Sanwa switches. Decisions.Decisions.

Look out guys for a Soul Edition Myoungshin mod. Might pick up a second panel soon to cut and mod, and I plan to have some work done from hibachifinal in May. If anyone has any experience doing this mod or advice, that would be greatly appreciated. I have never had to cut something like this will and do not want to mess up what will add up to around $250. When finished it will have 6 button Noir layout, Sanwa RGs, Myoungshin Fanta and artwork similar to this: http://68.media.tumblr.com/90f9b029a77055905f380cfe5c9e7a30/tumblr_nr36r00NKI1rmse96o2_1280.jpg. At first I was considering getting a custom cut, 5 button Tekken tag 2 layout Plexi and putting a plug in the 5th hole when I play tekken 6 or 7 and removing it for tag 1 and 2, but this fun idea is kind of a hassle in my opinion. I just need to learn how to upload pictures, lol, and then I’ll show everyone the finished product.

Just got a bunch of Silicone Grommets from @wazwuz 40a, 50a, and 60a! Just cause I wanted to try them all!

Going to be testing this in a regular Myoungshin, Myoungshin Airbag, and Taeyoung Fanta…

Details later. :3

Damn I want to try those silicone grommets on my newly acquired Fanta

He was working on metal actuators too which I wished he made for public. I felt like if anybody were to make custom Korean parts, it would be him.

If he was able to borrow RTech’s (Tekken player from Indonesia) Green lever, then we could have got a similar design or at least have a set of parts.

The closest thing for now is using the FLF grommet. It’s pretty light though when using it on a normal Myoungshin Fanta.

Hi!
I was wondering if I should get the Makestick Pro or get the more expensive Etokki Omni?
Thanks!

Both are cool cases but both of them differ on what’s provided.

The Makestick Pro is a case only so you have to get and install the parts separetely. This includes lever, buttons and PCB. It can be slightly less, equal or even more expensive than the Etokki Omni when ordering the other parts. If you want to get your hands dirty, it looks nice and you can say you build something in the end.

The Omni is complete with every necessary part installed. If you don’t feel confident installing your own parts, get the Omni.

Aren’t parts included if I order from here? http://item2.gmarket.co.kr/English/detailview/item.aspx?goodscode=814067687

I have that stick for ps3, as well as the Omni. Both are very good. Big difference to Japanese sticks though.

Just a heads up guys, Etokki Omni rev7 is live for pre-order

http://www.etokki.com/Omni-Korean-Edition

If you have them in your order then yes.

How long before it goes out of stock do you think?

Slimmer clear cover? I’m guessing 1/32" instead of the 1/16", not sure if I like the thinner ones, no matter how I apply it it always lifts up somewhere even on 6 screw panels.

i pre-ordered, and im worried about that too, i tried to shoot etokki twitter a question about it, no response yet, worse case i can probably try to buy the older style if i can get a hold of the store :frowning:

Yeah, they probably still have a bunch of the older ones unless they sold out

But doesn’t the older one also have an issue with the plexi bending?

No, they used thicker plexi for years, the early models had that problem and they fixed it.

Hopefully etokki are aware of these issues, not working their way backwards. Does anyone have any experience with the Kaze joystick? Planning to get a Myoungshin Fanta Airbag and I want to try out the single Gersung micro-switch for up.
