I pre-ordered from play-asia yesterday afternoon. It costed more, but all I care about is that one gets to my home on time. A good stick for the 360 is all I need.
I think i will do the same, plus not too sure what they are like with cancellations.
you know it seems to good to be true but who knows right?
139.63$CAN total with shipping is that impossible? is’nt it?
if this was the case even state side people should be ordering it from there its cheaper than 150USD?
i have a feeling its the standard stick 139CND seems about right for the 80USD dollar stick
oh well
For those who are gonna go with Cinebox, are you going for the Sony Street Fighter IV FightStick Tournament Collector’s Edition for Xbox 360, or the Sony PS3 Street Fighter IV FightStick Tournament Edition with a display picture of the SFIV Collector’s Edition? LoL!!!
Cinebox got their shit messed up at the moment…
Earlier it had the correct picture, I mailed them got a reply that they are veryfing right now what the package will contain… 
i know that this has probably been asked 100x before - but what type of stick does the ps3 Fight stick use?
Both TE sticks OOS on Gamestop again.
A stick made by madcats. THE TE Stick the $150 stick uses Sanwa Parts.
Also for everyone if you check the gamestop online store you can see that the Fighting stick is going to be shipped on the 10th.

If they correct the problems then I may just opt to import one with them. Play.com aren’t doing me any favours by the amount they’re charging for the FightStick TE…
Damn, a good 360 stick is hard to find.
Don’t make me laugh. You’re in UK and Play.com don’t charge shipping fees for UK orders. I live in Italy and paid TE 220 usd (TE+shipping) which is about 151 gbp more than 149 gbp asked by Play.com.
Lets just hope that I can fit a fanta in this baby.
Root beer or orange?
Question: Do they plan on making anymore, or just this shipment and that’s it?
If gamestop is getting the TE early i’d be so happy. i mostly want my TE stick right now and i can play sfiii all day on ggpo
We don’t know yet but read this excerpt from here:
As for limited edition – just how limited will the Tournament joystick be? Mad Catz reps say it’s initially shipping 3,000 and “see how it goes from there.”
Fingers crossed :wgrin:
Thank god! I Pre-ordered an Xbox 360 one like 4 days ago, Now I wanted a ps3 one and there sold out~!:annoy: W.e I might as well just get this one and mod it with sanwa parts. http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-zl-77-3-49-en-15-"Street+Fighter+IV"-70-36ak.html Yes I know I can get it cheaper at amazon but I already have a Hrap 3 just wanted something different with the art work.
Okay, it doesn’t matter anymore, i’ve just pre-ordered another from a UK retailer for 119.99!!

To answer the question why you would pay $150 for this stick:
Because it’s probably going to be the last stick I ever need. Easily replaceable buttons/stick if and when they wear out, and the construction of the box is great. A very solid weight, perfectly arranged interior with color-coded and labeled wiring, a compartment for your cable when you’re not using it, and support for the 360 microphone. This type of craftsmanship is worth the cost. Using this as the base, the buttons/sticks can be replaced with ease should they ever wear out. I won’t need to purchase another stick, so I don’t mind paying a premium for it.
I also imagine that all future Microsoft consoles will have support for older 360 controllers (since USB is the standard now), plus this will works for PC games too. I’ll be set for quite some time with two of these.
