Where to get X-Arcade
« on: January 28, 2005, 04:43:48 am »
Does anyone know where I can get a X-Arcade Joystick in Canada?  Rather than ordering it from the official web site?

You could try eBay. The odd used one turns up now again. I have one that I'm going to put on eBay now that my cabs up and running. But I live in the UK so tha't no good for you methinks.

UltraFrog, im also looking for a vender who sells X-Arcade or Hot Rod SE here in Canada..... the shipping is WAY too much to ship to canada. Hot Rod costs $99 US to buy and another $99 to ship it :(

lame.

Are you serious?!  $99 just to send from US to Canada?  That isn't even overseas!

HarumaN..... that's a neat little single player controller you have there.  But let me see..... you added the 7th Neo-Geo button at a later stage when you realised you wanted one afterwards. Right or wrong?

Yeah I did, I have since replaced it with another red button.

I'm not sure how much shipping to Canada is, it can't be too bad from within the US.
