Official HORI RAP Premium VLX (VEWLIX) - VX (360); V3 (PS3) - Arcade Stick Thread

can’t wait for a lexan cover >.<

Nice I can wait to use it on one of my VLXs. Would I be able to order it spread out? meaning the mount plate more towards the left?

Anybody else’s stick sorta have black paint rub off bit by bit while wiping down the palm rest area?

It’s normal to lose paint off the VLX… It’s been happening with a bunch of them after a while.

You either have to live with it and let it go, or repaint the stick sometime down the road…

I have had my 2 VLX’s for a bit now and I don’t see any signs of paint wear. Are you guys using abrasive cleaners to wipe down the VLX?

some people just perspire more =P

Does anyone know the credibility or how secure the site mentioned in post #1016? gmarket.co.kr

It is an ebay company but I am still hesitant. Also, if I were to pay the ridiculous price on that site for a 360 VLX, would there be any issues that would arise because of region? I mean, Mi¢ro$oft plays well with other Mi¢ro$oft right?

I’m partially inclined to not answer your question for the 12 year old linux users spelling of Microsoft.
360 pcbs are 360 pcbs, you’ll have no issues.

You can get your prints done at Kinkos, just have to do it with one of their large format printers if the image is wider than a tabloid sheet of paper or whatever 12x18 is called.

I wil never understand what’s so good with sega’s layout. It’s just so unnatural…

Take a look at your right hand.

That’s basically my point. :slight_smile:
Vewlix way fits perfectly while the Sega way ask me to “force” on my wrist for fitting.

Amazing.

Shoryuken is becoming more and more friendly, I see… :frowning:

hahaha actually if you just put your ring, middle finger and index finger down on at table you can see it
unless your middle finger is the same size as your ring finger this should be obvious.
You actually have to force your wrist more with a vewlix unless of course you already have your wrist accustomed to being forced for your vewlix that you believe that you are actually forcing it for the astro.

The only reason most manufacters are using vewlix now is because you can use the layout with more games and an 8 button vewlix is more aesthetically pleasing than an astro 8 button, If you use astro, you are probably not using it with 8 buttons.

I must have special wrists. :wink:
Because, my middle finger is obviously bigger than my other fingers (especially needed when riding), but, with the Vewlix I can keep my wrist right (no need to bend it) while I can’t with the Astro.
I’ll try to picture it (8 is my hand, both slashes are my wrist).

Astro:

8 8
| |
/ \

Vewlix:
8 8
/
/ \

Obviously, on the Vewlix, my hands (the 8) are inclined the way the slashes are, which means my hand remains in line with my arm, and so, I don’t have to put an angle on my wrist.

That’s why I find Vewlix more comfortable and always wonder why Astro is more popular (and also why I rather like the VLX than the legendary Saturn stick, although I would love to be able to change panels on the VLX like the Saturn one; that’s the only feature I miss on the VLX).

hey i was wondering if any of you guys would know what type of paint i could use to cover up a scratch on my stick thx :slight_smile:

Yes you would it would just be a custom order but you can order a custom layout however you want it as soon as they are available for purchase.

is there a way to dual mod the ps3 version to xbox360? i heard its harder.

Yes, I can do it.
