If none of the designs featured in the earlier MadCatz Street Fighter IV (PS3, Xbox 360) fightsticks appealed to you, maybe the ones splashed on these new sticks will.

MadCatz and Capcom have announced new collectible Femme Fatale Tournament Edition fight sticks featuring the lethal ladies of Street Fighter IV, namely Sakura, Viper, Rose, Chun Li, and of course Cammy. It's a limited run, too, with only 650 sequentially numbered units made for the Xbox 360 and 350 for the PS3.

The new sticks will make their first appearance at the Capcom booth during PAX, which takes place September 4 until September 6. Those who can't make it to the expo can still order them via the Capcom online store and MadCatz's Gameshark store for US$ 159.99 each beginning September 4.

Will this be exactly like the current Tournament Edition sticks? I bought one and thought it was a really good stick, if it wasn't for the square stick hole. I returned the stick to Fry's since I wasn't ready to start purchasing upgrades/mods for a stick I just paid $150 for.

That one is the shyt, but you can also can single ones.



They are alot stiffer than the sticks made lately, and use the same parts that real arcade machines do.



NTM if you are a hobbyist, you can just buy the buttons and circuit board and build a joystick into anything (coffee table would be best, then it doesn't move )

If I used arcade sticks I'd definitely get one of those. Too bad it doesn't have Zangief up there to throw off the whole girl power vibe.
