    Its hori so you know its a good stick but I dont see this being useful for any other game on the market. How many buttons does it have anyway?



    Are they only going to make it after you order it? Seems like a wise choice to someone like me who doesnt know much about economics.

    I hope Tekken 6 has tag play. Tekken Tag has always been my favorite.

    How would you manage the dual thumbstick/joystick control that's so common in FPS games with this device?

    That's insanely easy to build, and not very expensive.


    One hell of a markup.


    Is it even wireless?

    @LuckyFink: It has professional parts which have proven themselves over decades of abuse. I doubt your average home builder can duplicate all the experience that went into this.

    @KragNaroK: That's why the joystick comes with two modes. PC mode, that you'll probably us the most to play your games, and Arcade Mode which doesn't work and smells like BO and vomit.

    @SWM,30isoSWF_GitEmSteveDave:


    Love this part about the commercial... it sounds so wrong:


    "You're going to love my nuts.
    You can do everything in the cover.
    It's so easy… 1 finger… kids can do it."

    @ApostolicFire: My favorite part(s) are

    "You're going to have an exciting life now"

    "We're gonna make America skinny again, one slap at a time"

    and

    "Tacos, Fettuccine, Linguini, Martini, Bikini(?!?!)"
