Great treat for Tekken/fighting fans

Namco/Hori will be releasing a special package for Tekken 5's Collector's Edition. As a 10th anniversary thang, they're releasing it with a Hori arcade stick for $100 total (game + stick + some other bonuses). The stick itself is a version of Hori's Real Arcade Stick Pro, which is highly sought after by fighting fans and pay from anywhere to $100-150 for it usually just to get an imported version or $80-100 for domestic ones. The reason it's so highly sought after is that it'll use a real Sanwa joystick just like the Tekken 5 machine. The buttons I think are something other than Sanwa but they can be swapped in.

This is also perfect for mame (get a cheap PS2 to USB adapter) since a lot of games were meant to be used with ball sticks like Metal Slug

I'm just bumping this for the sake of others who want this deal and might not have seen it. EBgames now has this for preorder as the "Tekken bundle"
Preorder quick cuz they have the release date as 2/25 now
