The build quality on these X-arcade sticks are just awesome.
I bought the USB upgrade kits for two of my older sticks that were maybe 10 years old and the insides of the base still looked like...

Now that I have one, I'd agree with you WRT the Dual (though the old thinkgeek price would still be wicked tempting). IMO, it's worth the extra money it'd cost you to get Happ-Suzo sticks, buttons,...

In case anybody's still interested in this deal, they finally put a timer up saying when the sale (at least for the tankstick) ends: 3.5 days from now. (Sunday at 11:59PM Eastern).

This would probably work great for a MAME box with a pc running emulators wouldn't it?

yes, but at $50 a few weeks back, it's a much better deal.
it's been at $80 on thinkgeek awhile.
I did a bit of research on these but decided to build my own instead.

You can change the switches, or swap out the joysticks for better ones. This forum is gold:

OOC, did it come with the games and warrranty? I had been tempted to buy then, even though I wanted the trackball.

Just got my tankstick today. The thing is a beast but man are the switches clicky. Will definitely take some getting used to (and I'm hoping they break in with some use), but the overall feel is...

Yeah, I'm thinking of eventually changing some of the switches or buttons. The joysticks actually feel nice. I may add a spinner or two from groovygamer as it's a pretty easy mod. That said, first...

In that case, that was a hell of a deal. Ticked me off they didn't offer the tankstick. I needed that trackball :)

Actually, the Dual was on sale at ThinkGeek for lower than this. However, TG isn't an authorized reseller AFAIK so I don't think it qualifies for the lifetime warranty. Which, IMHO, is one of the...
