Tekken 5 Joystick = North American players get owned?

Card board boxes are worth near nothing, you paid $45 for the stick which is about right.

that calculation isn’t right

Tekken 5 = 49.99
Tekken 5 bundle =99.99
how did u come up with the 30 dollar difference

question:

on himuragames, do i buy the stick with the mounting plate or no?

the dvd case.

or art book?

personally, i don’t it’s that bad at all…i actually have more of a problem with the buttons that the stick itself…it’s no sanwa, but i’m not paying an extra $30 for a JLF sanwa stick plus labor to get someone to mod it for me…

and it’s still a good deal for the price…people just got their hopes up a little too high thinking it was a RAP from the start…

I tried the stick today. This is the first time I’ve bought a joystick for a home console. And I have to say I’m disappointed, but not because of the whole cheap parts. I don’t like the joystick. It’s different than the ones I’ve used in arcades. Is this a Japanese joystick?

Yeah it’s a jap stick but after a while you will get use to it and you might like it more than American sticks. That’s what happened to me after playing a while.

I still think this stick is just as good as the agetec dreamcast stick and fells the same. But I will swap for a sanwa stick since the mod does not look to hard.

Imo this stick is a great buy for the price.

well, the 49.99 includes the artbook

i relly don’t think its worth to spend 50box on a FAP
(Fake Arcade Pro, that is)

How is it not worth it? Can you name a stick that is just as good as this one for that price?

Hori basically charged around $40 for the SC2 stick. This stick has the same quality parts with the newest larger body that is designed for 8 gameplay buttons. It’s a heavy body and does not move around.

I personally really like the smaller 6 button bodies but how can you say that $50 isn’t worth it… It’s got liscensed art and performs great. I figure that it’s really about $45 what they are charging you for the sitck. $5 for the DVD binder box.

It’s much better than the Nuby and what do they charge for that? $69???

They basically charge $79 for RAP, CFJ-RAP and they get turbo switches. The TKN5-RAP is also $79 w/out the turbo switches. $35 is what they consider the difference of the Sanwa JLF part? Obviously the US versions are discounted for the bundle.

compared to a mas, how big is it?? and can you do 360’s smoothly (i may use it for SF) or is the joystick a square shape?

I have a RAP which has the same case. It’s not quite as big as a MAS, but it is still pretty big. Think a little wider than an Xbox, but not quite as tall or as deep, and much lighter.

I’d say I’ll rather spend the same amount of money for a Hori SC2 or a TK4 Joystick, which is much ligher in weight and much smaller in size, but still have the same performence to this heavy crap.

or I’ll just spend extra 20 dollars for a real arcade pro

are you freaking kidding?
you’re saying the size and weight of this is a NEGATIVE? wow

I LOVE THE HRAP. That shit is SO sturdy.

Joysticks are supposed to be portable,
or u can get 2 of them, one is easy to carry around, the other u
can leave at home and knock somebody’s head with it.

no, if size and weight are ur concerns, buy RAP(which I already did), not this Fake Arcade Pro.

I agree, but after my trade ins and everything I got this bundle for 50 bucks. It was def. worth my purchase. Understandable the HRAP is much better, but I juss figure the Tekken5 stick is like the SF:AC stick. It is good but it has A LOT of potential.

Rezo were can I get a RAP for 70 with shipping?
