Wizard Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 Changed the buttons too different ones and replaced the stick. Working on getting plexi and print out vinyl artwork.
L.S.D Posted June 29, 2009 Author Posted June 29, 2009 it's teh best stick out there, unless you want to build your own. the SFIV TE is all sanwa parts. and easy to mod. no soldering all quick disconnects.Why do we need to mod it when it is already good enough?

Inky Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 visual style mostly. and some like samitzu over sanwa. me, I plugged the first set of buttons and moved all the wires over one so I have American straight style as default. added an octagon gate and I am a happy camper. Wiz I seen a site that sells pre laser cut plexi but I don't have the link right off the top of my head. Is that what you are doing? or are you gonna cut your own?
Wizard Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 I know the site your talking about. I just haven't placed an order yet. Once I finish my artwork, I'll put my order in. Why do we need to mod it when it is already good enough?I swapped my buttons for other sanwa coloured buttons (Pink & Baby Blue), I replaced the stick with a JLF-TP-8Y with pink balltop. I might swap the JLF with a Seimitsu LS-32-01 though after I get BlazBlue.
L.S.D Posted June 29, 2009 Author Posted June 29, 2009 Ah cosmetic reason then. ............the white buttons do seems kinda "not nice" and get dirty easily. But I don't think i can purchase a button easily enough here
Shibathedog Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 Oh my god are they really this expensive? http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDet...roduct_id=73049 Is it any cheaper if you get it bundled with the game? (I heard they are doing that but haven't seen it for sale anywhere, maybe its only for the pc version) It seems like it's still a much better deal to just get an X-Arcade because then you get two players, and its still less money.
Inky Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 yep thats retail. there is a cheaper version that isn't as nice for 70 bucks. they are gonna package the saturn style pads with the game, not sticks.
Krosigrim Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 Daaaaaamn. $150$ lol Well damn, I don't want some cheap ass stick!!! Guess I'll have to hock it up one day... Madcatz... I remember when they sucked ass.
emsley Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 Im going to use the keyboard for SF4!!!!!!!!!!!! leet!!!
Inky Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 Im going to use the keyboard for SF4!!!!!!!!!!!! leet!!!Axl uses the keyboard exclusively for fighting games. I was giving him a hard time, saying I didn't believe it. so he posted a video of him doing some crazy KOF super.yeah, he's got some fleet fingers.

He is doing Geese's Rising Storm with the keyboard. Mad skil, I say.
Wizard Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Ah cosmetic reason then. ............the white buttons do seems kinda "not nice" and get dirty easily. But I don't think i can purchase a button easily enough here Partly cosmetic. I don't like the joystick that comes with the TE. When I found out it was moddable, I pre-ordered my parts on the spot and changed them as fast as I could because I simply do not like the colours. Daaaaaamn. $150$ lol Well damn, I don't want some cheap ass stick!!! Guess I'll have to hock it up one day... Madcatz... I remember when they sucked ass.The $70 dollar stick isn't that bad. As about as good as the Tekken 5 Hori stick (I modded my T5 stick with actual Sanwa parts) that came packaged with the game back in '05 with Tekken 5 (in the Regular Edition's case, it uses cheap Korean imitation sanwa parts, which is pretty decent). For 70 dollars, it's extremely reasonable and acceptable. It's also very, VERY easy to mod since it uses snap-ons like the TE edition of the stick, although some modifiction is needed to replace the joystick I believe, depending on the model you want to use.
Krosigrim Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Soooooooo. How ya liking the new toy? Hows your "game" coming along?
L.S.D Posted June 30, 2009 Author Posted June 30, 2009 Soooooooo. How ya liking the new toy? Hows your "game" coming along?Lol, don't understand what you mean here My English is different from your English. Anyway, been playing Soulcalibur IV yesterday with the stick. Fun, fun FUN Even my wife is shaking her head when she see me playing. I mean, i am practically grinning from ear to ear all the time it's like a boyhood wet dream fulfilled. it is the closest thing to having a real arcade at home
