Ordered a VX SA from The Hut. Will report back when it arrives.

Any views on HRAP VX SA versus the Round 2 TE for comfort?

I've used a TE and it was bloody heavy on my lap, whilst the VX SA is apparently a bit lighter. However I've read that the TE is more comfortable for the right wrist because there's a bigger surface to rest it on than the VX SA. I have fairly big hands so whilst the lighter VX SA would be preferable, I don't want to get carpal tunnel after 10 minutes...

[Barny]

Now that The Hut have both the Hori VX SA and the MadCattz Round 2 TE for the same price, which one would you awesome people recommend?

Have MadCattz sorted the PCB problems out? Or were they isolated to the cheaper, not TE stick?

The TE is nice and heavy but unless you have legs made of glass or noodles or something it's not really an issue surely?

I bought a Tatsunoko Capcom stick for the Wii, and have absolutely no use for it

Anyone want to buy it? Still unopened? If so, drop a PM. Thought I'd mention it in here first.

I bought one of those Mayflash Wii to USB converters so I can now use the Tatsunoko stick on PC, Mac and PS3 as well, and it suddenly very useful.

I've got a TE I use for PS3 and PC, so you can still the daftness of me buying it in the first place

[joffocakes]

Haha, I guess. I'm just hoping it'll be compatible with Wii U. I'd assume it is, as the old Wii remotes are, but there's still plenty of time for me to be disappointed.

I now have 3 Wii sticks. How's that for pointless?

Not really a problem, but the HRAP being slightly lighter would be just that bit more comfy.

I'm considering a stick as I'm really enjoying SF3, and noticed the HRAP at TheHut for the same price as the TE. However one of the Amazon reviewers found the buttons too close to the edge and said it made his wrist sore. If that's something that others have noticed in comparison to the TE, then I would just get a TE.

The Hut have the VX SA for 9 pounds today. It seems way to good to be true but it looks real enough. If real, OMG.

Use it to control Mame on the iPad. Great Dodonpachi/Streetfighter mini-arcade.

[Barny]

Thank you couldn't find it otherwise

No problem :-).

Good luck soldier. Let us know if it goes through.

These things never get honoured. Mainly because of the brain donors over at HUKD.

[Stoikovich]

ooooh I wanted one of them for a while. Have chanced my arm with an order. They're also listed at that price on Zavvi (same company).

[Superunknown]

What in the fucking fuck?!?!

Just ordered one, and it confirmed. Does that mean I'll get it, or can they tell me to fuck off?

The T's & C's state that there's no contract to supply until payment is taken. At present they've just used your details to confirm that you have a valid form of payment. Then, if/when they dispatch, they charge your card and the contract is formed, so they can cancel them if they want.

right everyone, KEEP THIS QUIET. If it's only us that have ordered, we might get away it!

*whispers* don't worry, I've been typing with my eyes closed.

[Barny]

We need to delete all posts regarding this thing which I cannot mention. Total media blackout. Damage control.

[Uzi]

CONSIDER IT DONE

WINK

[Uzi]

DON'T WORRY- THEY'VE NOT BEEN DELETED. JUST HIDDEN.

WINK!

1ST RULE IS WE CAN'T TALK ABOUT IT, BUT COOL GUYS LIKE JLM CAN PM US

[Uzi]

It's cool, to be honest we were just talking about the cheap TvC wii sticks you can buy.

[Plopboy]

And poof the post was gone

I have also just ordered one of those cheap TvC sticks

[Barny]

Ahhh can't wait for that cheap TvC stick to arrive.

And Uzi:

[Tofu]

That deal can't be for real, £8!!

[Chooch]

Still nothing on that parasitic website about it yet either. Fingers crossed.

PS: Processing!!

[Tofu]

It won't get honored, the PS3 edition is 98.85 which the 360 should be.

I just ordered and mine is processing. If a small amount of people order maybe but cmon this is even better than the touchpad deal.

[Barny]

It's probably just a mistake.

But they ought to change the price quick-fast then. The longer it stays there the more hope it inspires. But I'm an optimist today, so I'm all like WHAT IF???
