Virtua Stick High Grade & Hori Fighting Stick 3

Snowman · February 21, 2007, 1:28am

Has the High Grade stick seriously been pulled out of production? I remember reading something about it but have no sources

final_cut · February 21, 2007, 2:27am

yep, they will re-release it soon, hopefully.

System_1 · February 21, 2007, 2:29am

Yo, Final_Cut I wouldn’t get too optimistic though. Both the HRAP 3 and VSHG have already been shown to not be BC so it may be the same issue.

final_cut · February 21, 2007, 4:18am

yeah, no dice. it doesn’t work. I thought I’d test it out for the hell of it though.

any idea when the converters with the PS button are going to be released?

hay guys i got a HFS3 lawlz
i’m trying to get this to work with doujin and mame stuff on PC, insertcredit.com said it would work fine, but to no avail, i already tried using the sixaxis drivers but no luck yet. any ideas?

I am interested in getting the fighting stick 3, so I have a couple of noob questions:

I know it does not work with PS2 games played on the PS3, but does the HFS3 work on PS2 games played on the PS2?
What differences are there between the HFS3 and HRAP3, besides the aesthetic ones?
How compatible is it with PC games?

System_1 · February 23, 2007, 10:29am

Does not work on PS2 at all. PS3 is usb. PS2 is not. HRAP 3 has a Sanwa joystick while HFS3 has a Hori sanwa clone. If the HRAP 3 is any indication, it should work fine.

damn sega needs to step up with the HGFS. anyone who got one before the recall did you send yours back, and if not is it still working well?

NewGen · February 27, 2007, 12:17am

anyone who has the hori fighting stick, during emulation for ps2 games such as SF3 and mvc2 on the ps3, when you push the Playstation button, the joystick doesn’t register?

System_1 · February 27, 2007, 2:56am

No PS3 stick works during Backwards compatibility mode right now.

Focusflute · February 27, 2007, 4:58am

When is the High Grade going to be available again? I really, really want one of those!

My VSHG from PA shipped today. :lovin:

There’s a possibility I could aqquire some of these Virtua Stick High Grades from Japan. Pricing would be determined on how long it takes my contact over there to find them, but who would be interested in these if I could get them?

System_1 · March 11, 2007, 12:08am

Did you order from PlayAsia ?
Cos it’s always registered as out of stock

WTF. I placed my order for the VSHG back in Feb 12, and mine hasn’t shipped. I’m pissed!

System_1 · March 11, 2007, 3:18am

My order from Play-Asia was made on the 29th of December.
