Hello there! I'm a casual player who wants to get better so I decided to get an arcade stick. I used to play GG in the old days and I got my Accent Core plus this week and I'm gonna get BlazBlue as well. I saw a few arcade sticks and read quite a lot about them so I was wondering which one I should get.
I want to get a good stick which should last quite some time, and not a cheap replica from the market. I heard that the best out there currently is the MadCatz TE.
I first saw the MadCatz SFTE and I think it's cool enough, but I'm not so sure about it, since I saw a lot of bad reviews about all their other products.
I saw the BlazBlue PS3 stick and it looks ok, but I haven't seen any reviews about it.
I know that Hori makes real good ones, but from what I read the HRAP uses some cheap parts. I don't know if the PCB is also cheap but I don't want to risk it.
I don't want to spend too much money on a stick, but I also don't want to buy something that will break easily, so I decided to put a little extra effort and buy a good one.
So what do you recommend? I would like one with Sanwa parts. I could also try getting a custom one, but the thing is that I live in Eastern Europe, a place most people want to avoid shipping to. I would like to get within the range of 150$~125 Euros~100 pounds. Also I would like to avoid SH products if possible and not trustworthy.
