To get to the point, I have been very active in the arcade scene for 10+ years now. I'm currently 21 years old, and I have seen alot of action on capcom fighting games. We have a couple of very good players in MvC due to many years of playing and practicing on the game.
Anyways I have interested in designing my own arcade controllers and I have seen the work around here. After researching numerous sources and experience in the arcade industry., I've decided to create my joysticks in Lexan I've managed to design a polycarbonate arcade case that will be durable and well stylish.
I've decided to start a business in making joysticks to pay off my debts from college(go figure) and also enjoy what I do.

Also, what parts do you use?
though those are nice. I agree on more Shump designs.
I'd buy one for a PS3 easily. Just cause i'm too poor and smart to pay an assload for another TE stick on a different system.
Hope you have luck selling them though! They look great.
Psst..you're on the TOP SAUCE for this.
