    Is there a HMV in Galway? They were stocking TEs for a while.

    To be honest, I think the vast majority got their TE's online.
    Yeah there is a HMV I'll give them a ring tomorrow but chances are slim(not a lot of games there)I've had a look online and the cheapest on eBay was 110 and i've seen them on Adverts.ie for 65. So looking for something somewhere in the middle.

    I think you'd be extremely lucky to find a TE for less than 110 euro in a bricks and mortar store in Ireland.

    Got a TE Round 2 stick for 360 at EVO 2K10 (!) while on holiday some months ago, looking to swap it for a PS3 TE stick if anyone is interested.

    I haven't really used it much (probably 100 rounds at most?) and probably no longer will use it since my XBL time ran out and I've started playing fighters on PS3 instead. Reply or PM me if interested.

    I might have a PS3 TE by next week but in preference i want a 360 so i might be willing to swap you.

    Of all the Madcatz TE's, I'd say #2 (All-black Round 2) is the best looker.

    If you wanna be REALLY cool*, you could get buttons to make it look like a VSHG (dark-hai balltop, 2x yellow Sanwa 24mm, 4x dark-hai Sanwa 30mm, 2x button plugs).


    *may or not may not happen overnight

    For pad players:
    PDP (formerly Pelican) have just released their Marvel pad in the US.

    $40
    Just like an actual arcade machine, micro switch activators have been used for the thumb stick and the front 6 buttons to give the user that true arcade feel and accuracy when playing fighting games with this controller.

    The thumb stick is custom designed and constructed to act like a real arcade joystick but with the more comfortable and compact feel of a thumb pad.

    The 2 x 3 action button facing is ideal for all of the AAA fighting game titles out there, making the Versus Fighting Pad the ultimate choice for fighting games.

    MS3606.jpg

    http://www.pdp.com/p-984-versus-fighting-pad-marvel-edition.aspx


    No idea on when it'll be available here, but I suppose you could badger your local game shops/sites.

    It's 20% off, not 20% price, and since the round 2s cost £150 on there it's not exactly a great deal.

    Let us know if you get your stick Placebo. I'd read some pretty dodgy things about the site before so I didn't want to risk the order but it is over £30 cheaper than Qfonic (when shipping is taken into consideration) so if it arrives I may give it a shot. :)

    So, just ordered my stick from Gamesbites and had the same problem as Placebo - the order went through but there was an error on the card. Contacted Live Support straight away and they said that the payment had to be reviewed, did so and confirmed that the order and payment were successful. So I guess we'll see... :)

    Have you got a set of hex (Allen key) screwdrivers and a flat-head screwdriver?

    What I would suggest is to open up the top panel and rewire the quick disconnects so the stick is in Controller Type B:
    X--Y--LB--LT
    A--B--RB--RT
