Not until they get a proper QA department or charge half the price.

ibeatu · February 4, 2010, 1:30am

so these will for sure be limited if so how limited?

Halvie · February 4, 2010, 1:32am

can’t imagine there would be a ton of them considering price, but who knows.

Anyone know what it says on the cp in the lower right hand corner? lisenced by hori? Would be dumb to have that and then have hori in the upper left…should be vewlix if it says that

ibeatu · February 4, 2010, 1:58am

lisenced by hori

looks like that

I complain about not having enough wrist room. I always want more wrist room to all the sticks, I have a big hand!

Nucking_Futs · February 4, 2010, 11:45am

I want it!..but not for $315+

It’s too bad Sega Logistics never released this, I think it would have been better than the VLX.

Hopefully preorders go up soon so i can set it and forget it!

ibeatu · February 5, 2010, 9:13am

now thats worth 400

Its a great looking stick - but as others have said, a little too costly to consider right now.

Maybe if I sell a body part…

PillarOfHeaven · February 5, 2010, 5:38pm

oh my god, this is too nice.

Taiki · February 5, 2010, 8:40pm

FUCK IT I’M IN. 2 MONTHS AWAY. I can save up for it.

NotANoob81 · February 5, 2010, 8:48pm

Exactly.

Riki · February 6, 2010, 11:12pm

still deciding…i want it so bad but…the cost…

StridaJin · February 6, 2010, 11:50pm

Already preordered 2 of each. GoGo Afghanistan tax free deployment money! helps that the girlfriend lives in japan too. I wish Amazon.jp would get these cause they usually lower the price when it’s up for preorder and free shipping.

Truckasaurus · February 10, 2010, 5:17am

Hear Hear! I’ll put away like $100 every other week until it comes out, I’m drooling over this thing :love:

jhferry · February 10, 2010, 10:43am

I would love one of these but the price would be a deal breaker unless it came stateside.

gl0ry:

It’s a nice stick, but no one really needs it at this time. The only purpose for these sticks is to saturate the Asian market because Madcatz hasn’t really tried too hard there yet. I read something a while back stating that most top players in Japan had imported Madcatz TE sticks from the US. Looks like Hori just wanted to step up their game a notch to compete with Madcatz.

The TE was designed so well that it basically covers everything already and there is nothing new or necessary to the Hori model. The only thing better in the stick would probably be the PCB. It’s clearly not a good stick to take around… my TE stick fits perfectly in my lap/backpack/table, if it were any bigger it wouldn’t fit. The price is also two or three times the cost.

It’s a nice collectors item.

seriously, the TE stick is as good as it gets aside from minor pcb problems. its heavy enough not to move around, light enough to carry around and easily moddable.

good gawd… I need!!!

but humm… looks like it will be almost 5 bills with shipping?
