Since the other thread got closed down I figured I would open one up over here.
I’ll start the discussion with did anyone else notice today that the Tournament Edition stick is no longer on Gamestop’s website at all. I checked earlier just for the heck of it and everything but the tournament edition sticks are on the site.
Does this perhaps mean that there are no more available for either system to keep people from getting their hopes up they took them off the site?
OMG, theres already a whole thread about MadCatz Street Fighter IV Sticks . Please close this thread.
your last thread was closed for a reason…
didn’t start the other thread but thanks.
No more TE Sticks
Yeah, I noticed it yesterday. It took me by suprise. I knew there was going to be a limited edition but I didn’t expect them to be sold out by pre-order a month before release. Especially since they are $150.
On another note I’m new to this site and I’m not trying to be funny or something, but are these boards usually this strict and cruel? I mean, First the threads were closed over at the SFIV boards saying it had to be in tech talk. That seems pretty strict considering these are the official SFIV arcade sticks and people are talking about finding a copy for SFIV. Its not like they are talking about the value of the sticks in relation to other arcade sticks, or moding them or something. That to me would be tech talk.
Then somebody makes a thread talking about the fact that the TE sticks are no longer avaible here in tech talk and they are bashed for not puting it in the general thread about all the sticks that madcatz are making. Kinda ruins the fun of message boards to me when people split hairs that much and get bashed for stuff like that.
Anyway, I can’t wait to play with my arcade sticks for SFIV, Feb 17 can’t come soon enough!
Hopefully they will be more available soon, i really wanted to get one for ps3 (even though i dont have one yet) I did luck out and reserve one for 360 just because.
This forum is considerably more ‘serious’ than some others I frequent. The best advice I can give is to read the stickies and try to be as informed as possible before posting. Otherwise you’re subject to ridicule. Don’t take it personally. Some people get off to calling other people noobs.
If you think that’s “strict and cruel” then I despair for you.
SRK Tech Talk is actually one of the more pleasant boards I’ve been on in my many years of internet abuse, due largely to the combination of strict moderation and the “take no nonsense” culture.
