Interesting.

The stick has been developed in collaboration with the best players in Korea. Using this method
the quality of the stick was guaranteed.

It's actually made OUT of the best players in korea. Saulabi uses a new skintron forming process to render hard-core gamers down into simple solids for use in manufacturing. Like soylent green... but for joysticks.

Looks like it's a competitor for the Happs 360 optical. I didn't see much in the way of spec, though...

that's why I ask this question, found out that people use this stick for PS2 fighter games, but I want to know if I can use thus stick for Mame

To bad no one has tested this stick whit Mame.
If I have a little more money I will buy this stick and make a review.

Thanks for your reply

WTF???

That stick looks dull, even crappy to me.

Just 3 Kg of weight? Flimsy... Hope it uses suction cups underneath.

Not long ago I designed a eight pushbutton standalone joystick, with almost 16 x 14" (400 x 350 mm) CP footprint. Never built, altough I got the precut panel sets (for free of course). One of my initial goals was to get around 12 Kg of total weight for it, but I slimmed it down to 9 Kg in the final version (a friend of mine told me it would get uncomfortable if used over the thighs).

Obviously my design goals for an arcade like joystick were quite different...


Cheers

7 lb. is not what I would call light for a joysitck.  I have plenty of arcade sticks that I made out of MDF that are 14" x 10" that are only 7 lbs. and they are very sturdy and not flimsy at all.  Your 20 lb. joystick sounds a bit on the heavy side if you ask me. 

I don't know if the salubi stick is any good or not.  Mostly depends on if they actually used Fanta arcade parts in it or if they used cheap imitation parts.  Either way you could probably build a stick with Fanta arcade parts for cheaper.  Korean sticks are supposed to be the best sticks you can get for playing Tekken 5 but I don't know how well they would be for useing with mame.
