If price is the driving factor, the X-arcade stuff is a good deal.
If playability is the factor, there are better options for more money.
The T-stiks are a great all-around option, and their mode switching would make them my stick of choice if I were limited to only one set of sticks.
I personally opted for a modular system that would allow me to swap the T-stiks out for Wico 8-ways or 4-ways, for games where the Wicos feel better to me.
It also allows me to swap out for dual Tron sticks, dual Joust sticks, a defender setup, buttons only, etc... for different games.
