    HMVs have a linked inventory system, and one store which has demand for a particular item can request them from a store that has stock and no demand.

    If you're willing to pay some or all of the price of two fightpads upfront, I'm sure whatever HMV is closest to you would be happy to order them.

    tried that too - they couldn't find them on the system

    sadly not anymore - I've tried pretty much every HMV in Dublin and none have them in stock and of course they can't seem to locate them on their computer system either.

    I was in HMV in Drogheda (scotch hall) today looking for a TE stick and they had about 10-15 xbox fight pads and about 10 ps3 ones , the ps3 ones were €12.99 and the 360 ones were €13.99

    got myself an x arcade stick, but want to put new sticks and buttons in it. my problem is that I can't seem to remove the joysticks. It looks like I've removed all of the nuts/screws, but the joysticks are still held firmly in place. Anyone modded one of these and come up against the same problem?

    If anyone's looking for a 360 Fightpad I have one in basically perfect condition that I'll give someone for €10. I used it once or twice, and then Misty had it for a couple of weeks before he switched to stick.
    Aside from that it's been gathering dust in my room.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10 arcadesan


    sucess!!! used a butter knife to pry it loose (was a little bit of glue holding it in I think).

    now onto my next problem, how do I open the joystick itself to remove it from the control panel? :D any joystick I've previously encountered had a nut on the base that once opened allowed the removal of the stick ... but not this one. :mad:

    It should have an E-ring.

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,333 ✭✭✭Sairus


    Sound job. I'll have it at Tempest 4 and the Evo Qualifier, so whoever wants it off me can get it at one of those.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,206 ✭✭✭unky chop chop


    It'S predicable I will be at the evo qualifier to collect(and win). if ondafly is sorted my deal is revocable
    Very amicable of you sairus to offer the pad

    I really stretched my vocabulary with those words

    Not trying to rain on your parade, but it's actually predictable.

    no need man - appreciate it though. I might take a swing up there myself though and stock up on one or two. They are an excellent pad for modding.

    cheers for the help. Here is my stick wip (wanted to test the look of the overlay first so just put the original buttons/sticks back in).

    Don't know what to do with the p1 and 2 buttons though, placementwise.

    The buttons in the lower row?

    I say replace them with 28mm button plugs and move them somewhere else -- you do NOT want to accidentally hit Start in the middle of an (offline) match!

    :confused::confused:

    If anybody sees this anywhere, I'll take as many as they feel they can spare.

    Like seriously how can they sell at that price? That pretty much only covers one button.

    EDIT : Just checked that thread. Apparently it was once off to get rid of their last one. But still :(

    Woah that is crazy I payed 30 times that and thought I got a good deal :(
