Ah, This Brings Me Back! February 9, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I remember growing up in the 80's and 90's, going to the deli and raising my confidence level by kicking the crap out of the "Street Fighter 2" characters. After buying the X-Arcade, It reminded me of those days. My wife thinks I'm nuts (for different reasons), but there's nothing in gaming quite like the feel of a real arcade stick and buttons.
This thing rocks!!!
Morre advice than review. May 1, 2005 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
First thing is first, if you have a classic arcade jones, or maybe you are like me, and plan on building a MAME machine someday when you don't live on a third floor apartment, just pick up this stick. It's a quality product and is rock solid. That said, I have a few words of advice to impart.
As soon as you place your order or pick it up at your local Fry's, go to Home Depot and buy some rubber mesh shelving liner and a moderate size roll of 3M double sided tape. While the stick is rugged, heavy, and just oozes quality construction, it's way more mobile than I'd like when it's sitting on a smooth surface like a coffee table. I popped the hard rubber screw covers off, screwed the screws in all the way and applied small squares of double sided tape over the screws. Then I applied the tape the short length of the base and a few generous strips between the screw points along the length of the base, in addition to a few generous strips in the middle to help insure the stability. I then applied the shelving relatively taught to the bottom surface. While the stick could weigh a few more pounds for those 2 player sessions, it really isn't necessary after you apply the shelving to the bottom. On my wood coffee table, the stick now stays put wereas before, it would slide all around when I was the only person playing. It was much worse with two people. An adventurous person might look at securing weights within the confines of the joystick cabinet as an added bonus to immobility.
X-Arcade Dual Joystick is AWESOME!!!!!!!!! December 24, 2004 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Just got mine today and it is like living in a dream. Feels just like the old arcade joystick and buttons. It is made very well and comes with a cable for your pc as well as a few games for the pc. I got the X-Box adapter and after seeing how well it works on the PC and X-Box, I plan to purchase the adaptor for my Gamecube as well. If you are looking for a great way to play those Mame Roms or old arcade classics, this is a must have.
