Our resident arcade stick expert (LOL) just received exclusive word that Hori will be bringing a brand new Real Arcade Pro Premium VLX fighting stick to the US market! More information will be made available at this year?s E3 Expo so keep an eye out for preorders on Hori USA?s Official Web Store!
Are they not going to release that for the US after all? Is it possible Hori is just going to release the VLX because it’s a higher profit margin for them?
I really don’t know that there’s much difference other than real estate space.
I kind of prefer the smaller stick myself.
The VLX seems almost too big for my tastes!
Given Hori’s recent history of US releases, I doubt the upcoming US VLX will have any differences in build or color from the first-run Japanese edition… Just a difference in the sticker on the bottom of the metal baseplate.
We’ll have a group of people convinced that the US release is somehow inferior to the Japanese version even though all the parts are the same and both runs were manufactured in the same factory in China!
I saw comments like that last year when the HRAP 3 SA got its American release…
