I heard it was only a problem with the clear plastic buttons
Not just the clears, the non-clears too. Although clears are more prone to breaking as transparent plastic is more brittle.
My white Sanwa OBSFS are all good, the Dark Hai ones with 2-3 of my Mad Catz sticks were brittle junk and some were broken while in my TE2, I don’t really mind because I don’t use those buttons.
Other people I know reported that the ones in the TE2 seem to break more easily for some reason
I think its more so that we got more first time modders who the first stick they decide to customize is the TE2.
Breaking snap ins is very much a newbie issue
I wonder if there’ll be a Wii U TE2 with Pokemon artwork for Pokken’s release. It’d be nice, but I’m pretty doubtful since Wii U has all of 3 stick-compatible fighting games, not counting Virtual Console stuff. Plus, we’re still waiting on that eventual Xbox 360/Xbox One compatible TE2 
They already had one Wii U Tekken Tag TE, can’t get hold of it for shit now though, so could well be a Wii U one.
Regarding the button snapping issue, I’d changed buttons on 2 sticks previously, and having heard that it was an issue with the TE2 I was extra careful taking the buttons out, but still managed to snap 1 tab on 3 buttons and both tabs on another -_-
Wasn’t too much of an issue, because I was putting new buttons in to replace them, but was still a bit lame.
Welp I managed to strip one of the screw holes in the bezel when I was putting in some new buttons… seems like I break something every time I try and fix something else xD Not a big deal as I found a workaround but is there any way I could go about getting a new bezel? They aren’t available in the UK store. Was hoping to get a different colour one at some point for my artwork. @MarkMan
Hopefully they make a WIRED TE2 for Wii U. Or a wired TE S+ for Wii U.
Tekken Tag 2 Wii U Edition TE, as well as most other Wii/Wii U periphs (Tatsunoko stick, HORI/PDP pads, HORI Wii Fighting Stick) were WiiMote Accessory and plugged into the remote like a nunchuk. Only exception I can think of are gamecube controllers through Smash adaptors. A Wii U TE2 will likely follow suit
Yeah, that’s what I’m talking about. They plug in to the Wii Remote, but they’re still wireless. I’m saying there should finally be a Wii U stick that plugs in to the Wii U. Like the GameCube Wii U adapter.
Messaged nearly every available madcatz contact point, hopefully they will actually see my ticket/question…
The Tekken TE-S they made for WiiU bombed so hard I doubt they will ever make another WiiU stick.
Unless Nintendo directly commissions them to make arcade peripherals for Pokken, which even then it’s kinda up in the air since the arcade cabinets for Pokken didn’t even have joysticks (they had some weird ass home console controllers)
Console controllers on a Fighting game Cab?
I knew competitive Pokemon is fricking crazy but wow …
No Joystick, No Deal
That makes Baby Jesus cry
FTFY. LULZ
That’s actually arcade standard though, every single Pokken cab in Japan has those controllers.
Just saying the tabs on my red and yellow sanwa buttons are a LOT sturdier.
