I bought the MadCatz Street Fighter IV Tournament Edition stick and took it back the next day. That thing is a piece of crap. SF 15th Anniversary Stick > SFIV TE Stick by far. Maybe I'll check this one out for SFIV.

I just hope they're not made by madcatz.

If you look at the pictures, it has the word Hori in it. So it's by them and not madcatz.

My Hori stick was for PS1. It withstand 10+ years of abuse and still working fine!

You sure the Anniversary stick is better than the TE, or is it that you just dislike the Japanese style?

# lizardlick.com/ — TheRockness 2009-07-03 17:47

I'm not sure its a Japanese Style. I just prefer a round hole over a square hole setup for the joystick.

Also, the buttons were way too sensitive. I rest my fingers on the buttons while playing, and was getting constant misfires with the TE stick. I'm 30 and I've been playing in arcades since I was old enough to ride my bike there alone. Sometimes spent every quarter I could find on Street Fighter II. I never had such an issue with misfires as I did with the TE stick. So if that is "Japanese" I guess I don't prefer that.
