My Hori fight pad was d-pad was getting stick when I pressed down. So, I figured it was time I look at Fight Stick prices and saw it for $79.99 at Gamestop stores. Looks like it's the Arcade Fightstick PRO which is $159.99 on the Mad Catz store.

Damn closest with ps3 is 90 miles.......would have considered buying

If it is the Pro, then that is a good deal. It comes stock with Sanwa parts. As it is though, I still might wait it out a bit since it might drop to 30 like the Brawl stick did.

I requested a store nearby to hold it for me with that online option. Picking it later this afternoon, so I'll report back.

I own 3 fightsticks which would seem like overkill, but each serves a purpose. The wireless for just goofing around. The modded SF4 madcatz regular edition for a light model to put on my lap, and my awesome MvC TE for when it's time to get serious. I definitely don't need this, but I just traded in a 3DS the other day for $100 and my brain is telling me "it won't cost anything really."

So thanks OP, but at the same time you for finding this.

Was just $129.99 about a month and a half ago, so went and picked this up when you posted this. I luckily got the only one, thanks op! It'll make a perfect birthday gift for a loved one!!

Obviously people in Dallas don't play fighters... lol. In all seriousness though, no stores within 100+ radius have em for me. Besides, I have way too many arcade sticks at this point. >.>

Good god, this is an amazing price. Just finished modding one of those sticks last night, and they are great to use. The Sanwa parts are all very responsive. Considering it's a real bargain at $100, yeah. If you have any interest in picking one of these up and have any in your area, get on that! =O

Hell, probably would have picked one up as a fourth stick if there were any in my area. :C

Damn, do I need another stick? nope, do I want another one? yes, but I will hold myself and wait for it to drop more and if they ran out, they ran out.

You can have your closest store request that it be shipped to them from that store. I do it all the time.

Just picked mine up! It just had to be at the furthest store that I'm willing to drive to lol. Like someone said, there are a lot available in the DFW area. More, in the Dallas area though.

$hit.
looking to finally get a good stick, and not one for xbox within 100 miles, here in western washington.......
so... fÜck you, dallas, for taking all the fight sticks!

all 360 ones are out :( seems everyone plays fighters more the 360!

Hmm....no PS3 sticks within 100 miles, but the Loneview, WA gamestop seems to have a 360 stick. Bummer, I aint driving 50 miles for it.

Great. The only 360 ones are in Compton. ._.

I have 8 sticks. HAHa. I dont know if I want another one.

Do you think Justin Wong would say that with all the fight sticks he has won?

I'm having trouble doing the dragon punch motion consistently lol. Anyone with the PS3 want easy wins tonight? MY PSN is Bowserkick and I have UMvC3, SF2HD,SF3, SSFIV AE, MvC2, and Tekken Tag 2.

It's a pretty good stick although I've heard of quality control issues (check the SRK forums). I've used it for a few hours & compared to previous Madcatz all-Sanwa sticks (TE & TE-S), it does feel a bit flimsy as if the plastic's thinner but I didn't open it up to compare & confirm since it wasn't my stick. For that size, I prefer a Hori V3-SA (the new Kai version is very nice!) or even the previous TE/TE-S. Regardless, that's a good price for an all-Sanwa stick considering the parts in there cost ~$50 by themself.

BTW, for those thinking it'll drop down to $30, that'll never happen. This stick isn't in the same league/size as Madcatz other SE/WWE sticks. This is the lowest I've ever seen an all-Sanwa full size stick. If it gets to $60 or less than most peeps will buy it just for replacing Sanwa parts. I know I'd snatch it for $60 just for the Sanwa parts alone & sell the case/shell! For those that know me on this forum, I'm pretty sure you guys & gals know that I know arcade sticks, LOL!
