FS: Quasicon Arcade Joystick

[robbins]

Hey all...  I tried selling this a few months back, and I had several people interested, but everyone was out of cash after Christmas.  Anyway, here is is again.  I put it on ebay this time to make it easy to buy...

Anyway, it's in perfect shape, and just begging for a console cab!

Later all!

I really love that setup.  I just can't talk my wife into it. She says she can't fit. She says I spend too much money as it is.

[AtomSmasher]

Oh man, I've always loved that thing and plan on getting one, but works just too slow right now for me to keep buying stuff (I just built a new computer).  If it doesn't get any bids in a few days, then I think I'll have to bid the $200 because its just too good of a deal, I'll just put it on the credit card I suppose.

[mccoy178]

Hey, this end around 11:23 Eastern time.  Someone come out bid me.  Next bid takes it.

[mccoy178]

Thank you!  I've spent too much money on this stuff already this month.

[AtomSmasher]

After sitting as the winner bidder for almost a week I decided I really wanted it, so I outbid you   Now I have another project added to my list, but a console cab with these controls should be pretty sweet.

Looks like the AtomSmasher won the auction.  He'll love it!

You do have a pretty cool mame cab there already!  What are you going to use this with?  Going for an xbox?  There are a ton of great games and arcade compilations for the xbox that make this joystick shine!

Later!

I'm going to make a console cab which I'll put my ps2 into and I'll probably buy a used xbox and put it in there too.  The only way I would make a console cab was if I had analog joysticks and buttons which is why I've been wanting one of these controls, since they're the only arcade type controls I know of with analog buttons.  I can't wait to get it and try it out

I really look foward to seeing the cabinet you build around this.  If you need help modding an Xbox, let us know.

I assumed that was gonna go for around $400, so I didn't bother to keep up with it (and I knew McCoy wanted it).  If I had known McCoy was going to drop out, I would have chased this to $300.  Damn.

Mark, you talked me out of it ya dingleberry!   Now I'm going to make a cp with controller bays on either side of a dedicated steering wheel.

[AtomSmasher]

Unfortunately it'll probably be a while before I get around to making a cab for these controls because I have a couple other projects I want to get to first.  I just couldn't pass up the good deal on the controls, so I got them now.  I'll definately make a thread in the project anouncements section when I do get to building it though.

[robbins]

Yeah, I would have liked to see you guys get the price up to $300.   *sigh*  Oh well, that's the way it goes.  Anyway, it's a good stick for the arcade style games...  It didn't work very well for Halo, however.  *laugh*  That's what I get for even trying to play halo on an arcade stick.  Dead or Alive 3 on the xbox is fantastic with that stick.  Later!

Of the games I have I can already think of a ton that will be awesome one it, Mortal Kombat deception, Soul Caliber 3, Viewtiful Joe, We Love Katamari, Dynasty Warriors, X-Men Legends, Rachet and Clank, hell I think most of my games will play great on it.  I'm actually thinking of getting a gamecube for it instead of an xbox because nintendo games just have a much more arcade feel to them, Mario Kart, Smash Bros, Mario Tennis, etc.  and since I already have a mame cabinet I don't need a modded XBox for mame.  But as I said before, it'll be a while before I get to building the cab for it.

Also, I'm glad it didn't get up to $300+ because then I wouldn't of gotten it
