Street Fighter X Tekken Arcade FightStick PRO - Official Thread

Anyone know if the stick bags will hold an HRAP2? Looks like it might but I wonder how good a fit it would be.

hrm maybe its just me but the teeth design on the cabinet and the fightstick pro make me think mayhaps madcatz is getting some license to do the official TTT2 stick if/when it drops?

I tested this out @ EVO2K11. It looks good, feels great, I like how they put the upper controls on the right side. Would I buy it? Iā€™ll just wait, itā€™s more money to spend, that I donā€™t have. Iā€™ll stick w/ my TE for now, unless they come out w/ a FS Pro (Ultimate MVC3 edition)

I love the slope. For guys like me who only play on tables at home it is the one thing I like better about the SE stick. I would love to see black and grey to mimick that cab. The red accents against the grey and black is sweet.

The angled edge is too far back from the buttons to make for more comfortable play like it is on a Vewlix cab, Hori HRAP, or SE. It looks decorative, just like the current TE.

Iā€™m getting kind of anxious about this stick lol. That slant is definitely better on this one than the SE. Shoutouts to all the computer desk players out there! :smiley:

Iā€™ve been wanting a AE TE stick for awhile now. Man, I hope MadCatz comes to their senses and makes at least 1.

Oh no! Seth says he had issues with the Pro which led to his loss at EVO!:razzy:

Spoiler

LOL, excuses.

Raaā€¦ armshouse with Mad Catz already!

How do you know theres no metal panel? look at the SE and th Hori HRAP VX/X3 they have a sticker with a metal panel under.

Itā€™s metal.

Metal top and plastic bottom right?

I hope this (and Markā€™s own comments) means that weā€™re getting a proper mid-range stick.

Bottom is metal also.

I guess we have an inkling of where the ridged bottom design came from now. But I remember when I first saw it, my first thought was that it was designed to fit into something. Like the bottom of the SFC/SNES and how it mates with auxiliary stuff like the never-completed CD-ROM unit.

Itā€™d be cool to see someone make a podium or cab or something that was designed to lock a FightStick Pro in place.

I stand corrected thenā€¦

Still hope it comes out cheaper, if only for the lack of top accessā€¦

ā€¦or is there something that Mark isnā€™t telling us.

I kinda wish I wouldā€™ve opened it now. I want to know if my Cherry Sanwas will fit in.

Didnā€™t want to give Mark any grief though. :slight_smile:

Oh man, that Cherry Microswitch Test you did on me at EVO.
That was funny.
Laugh.

Shut up and take (a reasonable amount of) my money!

Yup; the D44xes were in the last set tested in my HRAP and I grabbed them at the last minute before Evo. KWJ was the best guess though.

But I have both at home too.
