    I should pick one of these baby myself to play Midway Arcade Treasures and Namco Museum (and since these joysticks work with all three consoles, that's perfect for me -- I have both a GameCube and a PSTwo).

    How is the quality of these arcade sticks? I have been wanting to pick one up for a while, but they are usually high priced.

    I"ve got one of those, bought it in January. It's not that bad, but there's a few issues. The button layout is rather odd, as they are splayed across a curved surface, not all nice and flat like a proper arcade stick. I also find the joystick to be rather unresponsive for 2D fighters. Works pretty nicely for Soul Calibur II though.

    My favourite part, really, is the giant image of the evil Calibur. Makes me think of those big airbrushed vans from the 70s/80s.

    If that plays anything like the KOF controller released awhile back, I wouldn't bother.

    They are the exact same stick, besides the art of course. I wouldn't recommend them. The buttons are made with the cheapest plastic, and the actual stick is just plain garbage. Range of motion isn't very good. Even for $20 I wouldn't touch that stick with a ten foot pole. You're better off with the standard xbox/ps2/gc pads. :/
