I think he was asking if you guys were going to make a Fusion Ruby, or what have you.

Will the MadCatz stick bags fit the PS3 Pearl?

So just got my Fusion yesterday. I LOVE IT. I did lose a lot of my Marvel matches though. Definitely getting an Octa-guage today. So not used to the Square gate. The felt bottom really does make a big difference. Need to get used to that too, I notice Its just a habit for me to just pull the stick closer every so often.

Also this is my first TE sized stick, didnt think it be so huge. My old ( first ) stick was a modded SF4 SE Mad Catz.

But I recommend the Fusion Stick.

Pro Tip: Switch to the correct console mode BEFORE you plug it in.

We may if there is interest.

Yes it should fit.

Enjoy!

their service is superb they respond to emails so quick definitely 1000 stars lol i just shipped my fusion for them to check up on it

I just got a Fusion Ivory today. Is there a preferred mode (360/PS3) to connecting to a PC? I tried it with AE and ran across some issues (I know the game has some problems).

When I tried configuring controller 1, it wouldn’t recognize my joystick inputs. When I have it set to PS3/PC, button inputs aren’t recognized.

I haven’t gotten a chance to try it out for consoles yet.

I’d say that 360 mode is the preferred choice for PC use.

I disagree. I don’t know if Qanba and Eight Arc PCBs act this way, but all other Xbox 360 PCBs i tried on the PC have the LT and RT act like one large axis instead of 2 separate buttons. The PS3 side treats the L2 and R2 as regular buttons, also you have the use of the Home Button in PS3 controllers. On the Xbox 360 controllers you can’t use the X-guide button on the PC unless its one off the games under the “Games for Windows” initiative

My problem is SFIV AE (the GFW downloadable version) wouldn’t recognize the joystick inputs when I tried to configure the controller or tried to skip the scenes, make option choices, etc. It worked fine when I used the Xbox mode.

360 Fightstick and Brawlstick pcb’s treat RT & LT as ‘separate buttons’. Regardless, it’s not so much about how a PC sees trigger buttons, but more an issue of compatibility, which is why I say 360 controllers are the preferred choice (if only for the huge selection of Windows Live games, which I don’t think a PS3 ‘home’ button will access the dashboard?)

What use is the PS3 ‘home’ button in a PC game that Xbox ‘guide’ doesn’t satisfy? Unless for some reason you want to map it to HP or LK, but that is senseless.

Ether way its a dual-mode Stick. As long as 1 of the 2 modes work for PC that should be good enough.
I don’t see this as a issue I should press.

It would be good to know for sure the technique used to make PC AE (and other games like Tekken TT HD) register controllers, and then have them stickied somewhere.

It’s well known now that for Cthulhu users you simply need to hold down the ‘start’ button when plugging in the stick. But the method used for Q4 RAF and Fusion sticks is a little vague.

Anyone able to shed some light?

About the guide/home button thing, I looked at the gallery and fusions have a universal home thing.

I have one more question before I finalize my order( so exciting!) , if I dislike the seimitsu and want to replace it, will it’s wiring connect to a sanwa stick?

When are you guys going to get some more Fusion Ebony sticks in stock?

Yes, the wiring harness is universal. The stick

hole mount pattern is also similar (assuming you want to use a JLF).
FUSION Ebony joysticks will be back in stock after Christmas.

Can a korean stick and buttons be modded into this easily?

any chance of more fusion sapphires coming out?

Is it possible to get a fusion with all Sanwa buttons and joysticks, but with the Link JLF shaft from Phreak Mods instead?

Also, I live in Canada, so is it possible to purchase it and have it mailed to me?
