Actually doesn't look too bad! $40 for 1 if you pre-order. Looks kind of Neo-Geo'ish to me. Also available in pink, and black.

Isn't there also supposed to be a Hori stick for Wii? I thought I saw it somewhere...
Edit: Found it. Looks like it's digital only (wheras "The Shaft" supports analog), but it has 8 buttons instead of 6.

Everytime I see an Arcade Stick post someone wants to boast about swapping in real Arcade parts. On the Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Stick there is no need to. I have two and they are solid. The only mod I did was add an inexpensive toggle switch to jumper a Face button making the stick into a "Duel Stick" for Geometry Wars.

I have a Hori stick already and I'm pretty satisfied with it. But I wanted a Shaft for its analog support.

The Wii Shaft looks nearly unusable.
