Hello new friend! Unfortunately we don't make the colored ProCables anymore. It was old stock from our MLG line of accessories. We might be doing more cables in the near future though. Cross your fingers. It's unfortunate too, I wish we had them now. We made a bunch of colors...
They are Sanwa OBSC-30 clear white and clear balltop. And I'm just doing what I can to help more people think positively about fighting games and the FGC!
Nice! I really like the white bezel with the clear & white buttons/balltop. Your friend looks happy enough
She is happy (i think)!
Ha, not not that many. Super tight on space though.

I keep all my boxes and stacked them in a closet
Prety much me, I really love some of the designs that people have come up with, trying to think of a design for a mini arcade cabinet but don't know what to choose for the artwork.
Any good places for art?
My wife LOVES The Last Unicorn, so I'm going to surprise her by changing her rivals TE2 stick into one of that theme. I bought some light blue panels and bezel, dust cover and washer. My friend made this art for me:
Just ordered a replacement plexi and art from Art's hobbies. Excited to see her reaction when I show it to her.
Also want to see how the plexi feels. TE2 plexi is much ass.

No SFV on Xbox and the stick not working correctly on PC have been a nice 1-2 punch @_@. Thankfully I have two Xbox 360 sticks and various _____ to PC adapters, so I have some options there. I feel for those that only have the Xbox One TE2 to work with for PC gaming. I imagine the stick issues will be resolved by the time Killer Isntinct launches for PC. The downside is that's months away. Hopefully everything is resolved sooner rather than later. As for the stick its self I like it just fine (aside from the lack of a headset port).

That looks like the cable I need.
You say you don't make colored ones anymore.
Where are the non-colored ones? I looked on the site and couldn't find them.
Yeah, I've noticed that the plexi on my rivals TE2 has been trapping moisture under it. My apartment is pretty humid,but is there any way to prevent this besides a dehumidifier? Anybody else had this issue before?
So I'm getting a rap4 straight from HORI I guess. But I fear that one day the usb will break.
Is it fixable from there or
Get another usb cable, some thick wire cutters like a rj45 crimping and cutting tool, regular wire cutters, and soldering iron tools and you'll be set to fix the stick when its usb cable goes bad.

Just out of curiosity, is there a stick that you don't have but have always wanted? Like a holy grail of arcade sticks?
Can't seem to organize my art right. Im planning on putting art for multiple characters in film reels but I have yet to figure out where to put the reels and how many to put. Gonna upload some of my drafts after coming back from work.
Dude, we need to talk...
Dude, we need to talk...
about giving me some!
My MadCatz Street Fighter X Tekken stick arrived today Plugged straight into computer and it worked flawlessly. There is a definitive difference between the MadCatz and the shitty Hori Stick I was using, it feels effortless to press the buttons and I don't feel like the stick is nearly as loose.

Which Hori stick did you have?
She says, "Aww, tell him I said hi. I like him." lol
Definitely will post pics when it's done. Going to be a week or two to get the plexi, but I have everything else.

That's a good stick, but why didn't you go with a current gen still?

Is this a decent-ish stick if I don't want to be utterly handicapped playing Third Strike online?

I used to have a few better sticks a long time ago, but I've since gotten rid of most of my collection. Will this suffice?

That is one sexy stick. I currently have my Chun TEs on deck, but looks like my next stick is gonna be a variation of yours.
So my stick finally came in and it works!
But Idk how to hold this to save my life I can't do anything I need help
You look up videos for gripe styles?
The stick goes between my middle finger and fourth finger
I considered getting a TE2, but I couldn't justify the price... I have a PS4 but I am buying SFV on PC. Realistically from my region the only fighting games being played online are USF4 and Rising Thunder (Killer Instinct as well on Xbone) so I weighed up the cost of the TE2 against what platform I am actually going to be playing on and I'm PC all the way...SFV and Killer Instinct (when they release) will both be cross-play with consoles. Rising Thunder I'm slowly coming around on, between those I am set for fighting games.
I made a primer video for people thinking about getting into Arcade Cabinets

Got the FS Pro dual modded for PS3/4 and changed out the art. I'm liking this stick a lot more than TE "feel-wise" so I think I'll be sticking with it on PS4 for now.
Got my Qanba Q4RAF black. Put a Seimitsu LS-56-01 joystick, with octo restrictor, on it.
Quoted my pick-up post. I really like it so far. Will be looking to change that artwork soonish I believe.
This one, totally.

Hey everyone. First post here, and I look forward to being a part of this thread.
I played Street Fighter 4 very casually when it came out for PS3 and bought and used this stick http://www.ebay.com/itm/Used-Hori-Fighting-Stick-3-/271952280710?hash=item3f519e7c86
It served me well and didn't give me any problems.
I recently downloaded Ultra Street Fighter 4, and I can't stand playing on the controller. I destroyed my analog stick's rubber part within 2 days. And I would like to purchase a stick.
Which do I go for, considering I will be playing SFV on PS4 when it comes out?
All the sticks I see for ps4 are in the 200$ Price range. I am willing to shell out cash as long as I am getting quality.
Thank you in advance.

Only two options right now are the Hori RAP4 and the Mad Catz TE2. If you're willing to import you can buy the Venom arcade stick, but you'll have to replace the buttons and joystick.
To further qualify this -
The TE2 is $200. The HRAP4 Kai is $150, and you can get the Venom stick for $100 but then it'll cost another $35 or so to get decent buttons and a stick, since the stock parts in the Venom are mediocre at best.
Unfortunately, you can't take out the parts from your old FS3 and put them in the Venom because IIRC the FS3 parts are soldered in (and also the FS3 parts aren't that great anyway from what I remember). So if I were you, I'd get the Kai. Hori makes great sticks, the stock stick/buttons are good enough that you shouldn't have to replace them, and also it's the only stick right now that has a PS4 touchpad button and that might be useful in the future.
Doesn't the hori stick also have a touchpad?

He was talking about the Hori stick
D'oh! My reading comprehension was so off. Anyway...
Tell me guys, what do you think of this for my TE2? If you don't like it, what changes should I make? My photoshop-fu is kinda weak so nothing too complex.
Pretty sure no 3rd party products have a headphone port. Markman says it's something to do with Sony's regulations.
None of the hori or madcatz products I own have one. I know the MKX pad doesn't have one either.

Thanks! Most def post pictures when you complete it!
Gotta love VJ! I feel the balance in the middle portion (where buttons are) is off. The spacing between the top film strip and the buttons is too tight compared to the bottom film strip and the bottom buttons. The gradient definitely exaggerates it because it feels like all the visual weight is is up top. Have you tried no gradient and just a white background in that area?
Also yes, I know it's a template so the buttons have to go there, so play with the sizing of your elements.

TE2 is 18 bucks off (though still out of stock) on amazon right now. Think it got price matched somewhere.
Edit: PS3/PS4 version only it seems.
