SFIV Tournament Sticks In Stock At Newegg... For Now
Buy them up while you can people, these babies are AMAZING. I absolutely love mine. Pity my Xbox is broken at the moment.
Already sold out dude... Why don't they just make more if there are people wanting to buy them? I remember Brad talking to a guy who said this was not supposed to be some limited run thing and they would make enough to satisfy demand. Why do I have to jump like this and hope to get one or go on ebay and pay $200?
Giantbomb.com? I heard you get added to a terror watch list if you visit there, I'd better not follow that link.
I'm not too great at fighting games, but I really am considering getting a stick and SF4 one day.
Heh, well, piss...I added the 360 stick to my cart, input all my information, and then tried e-mailing the significant other for approval. By the time I got a response from her and hit the confirm button, newegg told me the item was no longer in stock. Shucks. Eh, I have the SE stick anyways and am just waiting for my parts from Lizard Lick to arrive (4 weeks and counting...).
Coonce- buy a stick and then donate you gamepad to orphans - or something liek that- then you get a present - and brownie points with karma!
These sticks wont match demand until late this year or early first quarter at the latest. Sanwa is running out of stock so the sticks are being pumped out when ever MadCatz receives their orders. I hope they match it fast. If you cannot find one look for the HORI Real Arcade Pro EX. These sticks have The Sanwa joystick but hori buttons.
It also has quick disconnects so they are a breeze to mod. These sticks are a little hard to find too but, its another try at least.

I just remember lordofultima's blog on this... http://www.giantbomb.com/profile/lordofultima/madcatz-fckstick/30-21367/
Funny, I just successfuly ordered a 360 one with no trouble. How do you guys know they are sold out? I got my order confirmation email and two day shipping estimate. I did this in the last 5 minutes.
Does anyone else think this is complete bullshit? Madcatz has a fucking monopoly on high-end sticks that cost a fortune for one game. I'm shelving SF4 until the prices are reasonable, or not, and the game gets sold.
They became "in-stock" again for a little bit. But now they're sold out again? Um, okay. I don't know why it just did that.

For one you can't apply the skills you learn at home to an arcade and two, just try doing some really fast motions (say, down back, up back, down back, forward back, down back, forward back - Balrog's headbutt into Ultra) with your thumb in the air, now try doing it with your whole hand. Doing it with your whole hand is easier and faster - the reason why playing with a stick is so much better.
Sure people don't need to buy a TE stick (I just have a crappy Hori FS3) but a stick really is necesssary to play the game, not just if your "super serious"
I sir take your stupid comment and re-direct it towards yourself ;p (I'm jk, to each his own and all that)

It's not for one game.
The person who is going to buy this is the hardcore fighting game player, and seeing as it can be used on PC as well, it's for SFIV, SCIV, MvC2, VF5, Tekken 6, Battle Fantasia, numerous XBLA titles that are ports of arcade games, DOA5, BlazBlue etc etc. And thats just X360, theres more on PS3 and PC.
