EPTEvery time I watch a major they have ridonculous sales on all kinds of sticks, I want a dual modded one but so far I've never seen the deals go outside of NA. With overseas shipping and the added cost of a dual modded stick is it simply asking too much and I should just suck it up and pay the extra money or do you guys have any tips on how I could save a little bit of money?

If you want an out of the box dual-modded stick, you'll need to find Qanba sticks (Q4RAF is the most common, Q2Pro is the newer one and Eightarcs are Q4s with a different case) which might have European retailers. If you travel to events, I believe Madcatz has a booth at Gamescon and possibly at DreamHacks which would sell sticks and save on international shipping. Last option if you are technically capable, would be to reuse the Hori V3 Stick and refit it with authentic sanwa buttons and stick. (Requires Soldering) | ||

Jesus took one look at the stream when a friend mentioned it. Not only is it on Ustream, the tournament itself reminded me of the whole Triple Threat venue/situation. SFxT pot prize goes from 5k guranteed to 500, KOF players walk out because of how shitty the tournament is, overall the shadyness and poor organizing of the TO. Yea not gonna watch this one lol | ||

It's fun, but I have a lot of trouble executing special moves that require joystick moves (The dragon punch thing gives me particular trouble). I'm doing it on an Xbox 360 controller cuz I can't afford a stick. Is this normal or am I really bad? It can take getting used to, just have to practice until you can do it. You only really need a forward -> down -> forward or forward down input. anything else is just gravy | ||
