1.) A or B but probably more A so I can pick my own parts.
2.) C none of the above I play PC the most followed by Wii second (lots of emulators on PC but works with most 360/PS3 PCBā€™s)
3.) B it would be nice to have a rounded edge, but if it raises cost too much or limits the materials (clear acrylic for instance) I am ok with A
4.) B
5.) C I would really like a all clear case, something different.
6.) C both. If it was clear plexi I would be going minimalist style, but with a standard stick material I would have art on it.
7.) A
8.) B
9.) C

  1. Either A or B. Option for both would be nice.

  2. Aā€¦ but Iā€™d rather have a MC Cthulhu in there so I can also play with my Wii :smiley:

  3. A or B. =/ Iā€™ve only really experienced A so I wouldnā€™t know whether or not Iā€™d enjoy it.

  4. B. Would love to see a wide variety of options though, but I can see where that would increase costs.

  5. A/C/D -_- Depends on the mood.

  6. Canā€™t decide. Againā€¦ depends on the mood :stuck_out_tongue:

  7. A

  8. A Wanna try making my own case (for personal use) and all the cool stuff you have seems like things Iā€™ll never be able to accomplish on my own.

  9. C

  10. Are you starting an online store or what? I think unless you have explicit permission youā€™d still have to meet the basic requirements of the trading outlet to sell and trade in the Trading outlet. Just giving you a heads up. :smiley: your sticks are awesome and I wouldnā€™t want you to be infracted.

  10. As far as special features, it may be a good idea to offer a few different models to avoid every order being a ā€œcustomā€ order and also to avoid scaring away budget minded players. Maybe offer a very basic case with no frills, then a fancier model with a cable compartment, then a high end model with LEDs, cable compartment, etc. This is just a thought, Iā€™m not sure exactly what kind of features you plan on including.

what are you referring to when you say ā€œpage 260ā€ and ā€œpage 264ā€?!

10) The most important thing to consider is the quality and price, once this can be achieved with popular case models we could have something extra like cases made specially for each kind of joystick. I might be interested in a case made specially for Korean, Seimitsu and Happ parts. You could also make bundles with popular controller boards at a nice price, so you would concentrate the profit on the actual cases and make people prefer to order from you. It would be nice to buy a custom case that came with the controller board already installed and wired too, which could be sold for a premium price since you spent more time with them. Iā€™d love to get a case and then solder/connect the sticks and buttons myself.
