If I didnā€™t spend the money on a Famicom AVā€¦

I canā€™t believe no one has snatched this up. Very good deal for PJS dual modded stick. just replace art:

1506

200 is a steal, man I am tempted.

I did recently score a Famicom AV

I really want that PGS stick, but I also know that I cannot afford it right now, as I need a new laptop. Iā€™ve also got an under-appreciated VLX Diamond, soā€¦ I really donā€™t need another stick.

I would be curious how the artwork is changed thoughā€¦ Is the plexi held in place with the buttons?

1508

Most likely.

1509

I scored the Tekken Hybrid Limited Edition set sealed for $15 today. Been craving some Tekken Tag!

Earlier today I went to check out a Sega Virtua Racing cab Iā€™m thinking of getting. The dude and I spend like an hour talking about games and I end up leaving with a free Pit Fighter board he had laying around. Not bad. Picking up the racing cab sometime next week.

I was very excited to find a used Xbox 360 HRAP EX on amazon for $56 (shipped). Itā€™s in good condition and fully functional. With some credits on my account I paid $29. Iā€™m planning on swapping parts soon.

Picked up a ps2 Saturn pad for $16

1515

You win - and where?

1516

EBay. But itā€™s not such a good deal. Its like a converted original Saturn pad. Not sure if it has an internal adapter or what.

1517

I got a madcatz tekken tag tournament 2 fightstick for Ā£42 delivered, straight from the gameshark store. Just felt like sharing.
Best TE IMO. The noir layout and foam padding takes it above my qanba sticks.
Broken glass Artwork on it is also much better than the soul edition TE which I could not stand, so I got rid of it.
I think madcatz should release more art templates like the one included with the TTT2 stick.

1518

PSX Namco stick on eBay for $20 shipped. definitely not brand new, but no rust or cosmetic damage on it.
received the stick a few days later. I now have 4 of these guys in my collection.

I recently snagged a Hori Fighting Stick VX for $20 at retail. Pretty good considering Itā€™s rare to buy Arcade sticks in Australia for a decent price without going online.
