I'm thinking of getting the xarcade DIY kit but I've heard mixed reviews. I want it because I dont have a clue how to use an IPAC and soldering control packs is not an easy thing for me. This seems like the easiest way for me. I also want it for the console connectivity. So what do you guys think of the xarcade parts? Keep in mind, I've never used all these other joysticks before as these will be my first. I just want some decent joysticks to play my games with. |

The sticks and buttons are cheap knockoffs and it is very noticable to me during gameplay. Their arcade cabinets are worse. As a result I wouldn't touch anything they make. |

I have an X-Arcade 2-player that I gutted & put in my CP. Wiring was a pain, as it was already wired for an X-Arcade and most of the Player 2 wires wouldn't reach, so I had to add some extensions to it - I wanted to be able to reassemble the X-Arcade later if I needed to. The buttons feel about the same as the Happ buttons I have for my Neo-Geo layout; maybe a touch looser. The sticks are decidedly different, though, and they give me problems when trying to hit diagonals sometimes. You may want to consider different sticks. |

maybe i should just hire someone to hack a psx controller for me and buy some joysticks. Street fighter, tekken, and soul calibur will be heavily played on my cab. Too bad, it seemed like a good solution for me |

why not just use a keywiz eco 2, no solder version. Its cheap and doesn't require any soldering. http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=76_80&products_id=200&zenid=5f2139bb716a4adac1d09c507654f2dc |
