Kinda sexy, if you ask me...

No word on a US release yet, though... Fortunately, I got a DOA 4 stick. Hopefully, these will be a little more plentiful. And looking at the pic, I really hope that's an honest-to-God, 4-way stick...

That is very nice, but I sincerely doubt that it's a 4-way stick. It's a "fighting" stick, and no one gives a damn about playing Pac-Man properly. A switch would be nice, the Capcom Fighter Power Stick for SNES/NES had a 4/8 way switch. But classics reprgrammed for NES or SNES wouldn't need te 4-way stick anyhow...
I'll probably look into PS2>NGC adapters before getting one. Unless I find one cheap later on...

Sexy stick, to play which games exactly?

I'm guessing Super Smash Bros., eh?

Accent Core, Metal Slug Anthology so far. It could be VC compatible too.

Thats a good question. The price isn't as high as other sticks, so are they using real arcade parts?

Oopsie!! I forgot to add the pre-order link at Play-Asia.
It's $52.90 - It says it only works with Japanese Wii's... Aside from that, there not much info on the controller, itself.

This will be good. I've been thinking about getting a GC-NES controller cable and using my NEX arcade stick in the meantime to properly play the VC shmups.

You've got a NEX arcade stick? How are those, anyway?

I think the controllers aren't protected. Hopefully not. With S/H included, its gonna cost me about 80, and I don't wanna spend that for something I can't use.

Should be as good as the Cube SC2 stick Hori did... which I use on the VC :)

Since I can't find any info, I'm assuming those switches up on the top left are maybe turbo switches, perhaps?

Metal Slug Anthology?
I think that wouldn't work, cause as far as I can tell upon closer inspection, it looks as if this one works like the classic controller and has exactly the same buttons, minus the two analog sticks.
Metal Slug Anthology doesn't support the classic controller.
But this baby could indeed be very handy for the VC. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the inclusion of Neo Geo titles ^_-
