wow it took me 5 straight losses to realize that fuerte sucks, especially since i cant do RSF. rufus seems pretty easy so i might as well get him as my 2nd. love his win quotes too

Nice stick. =D

Is that an LS-32-01 with a bubble top? It fit without any issues, or did you need to use a flat (not s) mounting plate? I think the LS-32-01 has an s plate I think, so I'm wondering about ordering one if the JLF that eventually comes through the pipeline is not 100% to my liking.

The stick is a Sanwa JLF-8T, I just replaced the ball with the bubbletop. It fits perfectly. I dunno if the LS-32-01 fits. And I might replace the artwork. I don't know yet.

Edit: yes the LS-32 fits straight out of the box

You can get a ~$50 Hori fighting stick. It's small, has Hori parts rather than authentic Sanwa / Seimitsu, and is difficult to mod, but imo it's better than using a gamepad, at least.

For a small stick like that, you'll definitely want a hard, sturdy surface to place it on while you play. Trying to play with it in your lap is very difficult because when you move the joystick the entire thing moves on your lap.

got one of those, but now its at the brink of death since my roomie let it fall, now the stick doesnt respond that well (doing a SRK can be hell, since looks like the Down position is doing a false) is there any guide to mod it (or at least repair it) i CANT buy any stick since there is no market for those things and TAXES would make it cost like the double.. so any guide and recommendations to MOD/REPAIR/BUILD a stick for my 360 would be highly appreciated

Ah if it was dropped im pretty sure it could have shook the connections in the stick because in the FS3s and EX2s the pcb thing is soldered onto the buttons instead of cool hrap disconnex. Oh wait you were talking about the stick i dunno lolz, the hori knockoff stick isnt too good anyway none of them have a long usage life D:
