an american stick is no problem, I’m a fan of modding so I can change parts to japanese and what not if I dislike the sesnitivity. I am looking into a hori stick. Madkatz are way more expensive, so thats a let down.
Anyone have anything good about this as is out of box? I will be using this on pc, so will it work with the ps3 to pc drivers? Also is the quality bad or decent? I have heard nothing bad about hori. Just need suggestions before I buy. I’m getting the ps3 version because, if I do get ssfiv, I will be buying a ps3. I did read the slagcoin thing but it didn’t seem like it applied to pre-built sticks.
that isn’t an american stick. that stick usually don’t last long and is difficult to mod. Do you know what motherboard your pc has? Does it have a nvidia chipset (nforce) ? If it doesn’t you can get this instead Amazon.com: Street Fighter IV FightStick: Playstation 3: Video Games
it is about the same price and easier to mod.
Yes my bridges are Nforce. What does that matter though? I was kind of steering away from madkatz because I heard they have issues getting stuck and such. I wouldn’t be modding it right away, but in the future.
so I cannot get the madkatz period? Is this only for the ps3 sticks? I heard 360 sticks work on a pc out of box. I doubt I will be able to buy a pci usb card as well.
You might want to check out the “what stick should I buy?” posts here in the newbie questions post and over at the newbie saikyo dojo. They might help you make your decision.
And at a 50-$60 budget, don’t expect to be able to afford anything with more than poor quality knockoff parts.
At least with the Madcatz SE stick, you can easily mod it with better parts if you decide to in the future for another 40-$50.
If you ask me, you should save another $50 and just get a TE or a HRAP stick on sale because it will make the difference between your parts lasting years and lasting months.
Alright. I’ll see if I can dish out the extra. I really didn’t want to buy the TE as I doubt I’d ever do more than casual play. Not like I’m going to go to a tournament. But if the quality is worth it, I’ll get the TE. Should I buy the madkatz? Does the ps3 problem still apply to the newer TE sticks madkatz put out? The round 2 I mean.
I think I’m just going to buy a 360 stick. Me getting a console will be some time. I’m still mainly a pc gamer. I rather not buy a console to begin with but I really do want super. I think I will try and fork a 360 TE stick. Probably madkatz.
You can get the Hori EX2 for the xbox 360 if you want. Its not the best and it isnt very easy to mod but its certain to work for PC and you can get them from as cheap as $45 from ebay
