So I'm trying to find plans/instructions to build a custom Xbox 360 arcade stick, but I am having a hard time finding anything. I'm also having trouble finding a good retailer for arcade parts such as sticks and buttons. I really want to build one since I just got Street Fighter 4. So does anybody out there have a good website for custom arcade stick instructions and arcade parts? :)

Game » consists of 9 releases. Released Jul 18, 2008

Would be interesting to check-out though, or if anyone here is an expert or has information. Let us know of your exploits if you ever get a project like this going!

"You would do all that just for one game?"Street Fighter IV is a pretty darn gewd game and BlazBlue + The King of Fighters XII aren't too far off (then comes Tekken 6).
I'm doing it not only SF4 but also for Tekken 6 when it comes out, King of Fighters XII, and any other fighting game that comes out in the future that I may be interested in. I think its a good idea. Plus it'll save me more money than buying an expensive prebuilt stick and I can feel like I accomplished something...lol :)

"http://www.lizardlick.com/Probably the best site for parts other than some Japanese stores. Be prepared for a pain in the ass if this is your first time doing this sort of thing.

"Why don't you just buy a premade one and avoid the trouble?"He already answered that with this...

Thanks for the site! Does anybody know of any step-by-step instructions or plans to make an arcade stick for the 360? If I get some good plans then I'll start building soon and I'll keep you all up to date

I'm thinking that I could make a 360 arcade stick for my final project in my senior year of high school, but I'm a 16 year old who's has next to no knowledge on this stuff other than the fact that I replaced buttons on my Madcatz SE Fightstick to Sanwa buttons, and I can't seem to find a concise guide on how to do it.
