I found the best prices by just going to google shopping uk and then just searching te fight stick, they range from about 80-140 pounds.

Just fyi, back seat modding is a big no no on boards.

I'm happy enough for the odd joke long as people are getting their answers (which to my knowledge they are).

you cant be serious ? cant believe you actually posted that.
No ones really getting the answers, theres only 1`website selling the stick and delivery to here and even that for a hit and miss price.

I bought one TE off amazon and one off ebay.

If you check my second last reply, you will note I point out why all the sticks seem so expensive.

Also your question is not the only one Farz.

Heads-up for anyone who wants to pre-order a Qanba Q4:

I'm new to arcade sticks, never used one till just last week. I've only played 3 sessions with my Hori Fighting Stick and damn is it hard. I've come a long way compared to the first dreadful half hour of my learning experience but I still suck hard at it compared to my console controller skill. My question is... in everyone's experience... how long do you think it will take for me to fully adjust to playing stick and be able to bring all my tactics, combos and skill from my controller to the arcade stick? Or, is an arcade stick simply just not for some people?

It depends how much you play in a session and how many sessions you play in a time frame.

But mostly how smart you play.

I can really play on pad or stick, but always find I lack an amount of precision on a pad.


It's all muscle memory, the more time you sink in, the easier either will get.

Is it hard to mod? I've been considering attempting to mod mine to join in some casuals since I got it for the PS3 and the majority here play on Xbox.

I have a perfect condition tournament edition stick for xbox 360 for sale if anyone is looking.

Id really only know how to mod buttons/ball tops/skins etc but i wouldnt try dual modding it myself, there are different ways of doing it appareantly tho. If your any good with soldering and that kinda thing there are some good vids up on you tube that help you step by step.

Naphiel

I'm not too bad at soldering but considering how much TEs cost I'm a bit reluctant to go pulling it apart, since it's only 3 weeks old.

I modded my SE within 2 days of getting it.

But then I am a bit mad.

re: dualmods, PS3 ones are slightly more expensive to dual-mod than 360 models (since solutions to add PS3 functionality have been easier, and hence cheaper, to create).

I'm getting a TE soon and was wondering how much it costs to dual mod a ps3 stick.I have a 360 but all the ps3 sticks seem to be a fair bit cheaper than the 360 ones at the moment and if its cheaper to get a ps3 and dual mod it than to just get a 360 stick il go that route.

One of the lads i live with is an electronic engineer so im sure he can take care of whatever work needs to be done.

I definitely plan on switching to stick so the longer i stay on pad just seems like wasted time.

No, it is much cheaper, and easier, to dual-mod a 360 TE to include PS3 functionality.

@kiki Are you planning on ordering any parts anytime soon cause I need some to repair my stick/build the next one?

K.O.Kiki

Nope, I'm broke.

I've said before that if anyone wants to do a group order, I can advise on what parts to get/how to save a few quid, and will install for a sammich.

DarkTalant

Righteo, in that case I'll order some in myself. Does anyone else want in?

I'll pay you a fiver to throw your current stick in a fire Talant :pac:
