They were. X-Arcade didn't just "copy" the design though, Hanaho assisted them with it. It was a legit, mutual business deal if I recall correctly.
I own both of the sticks, the hanaho hot rod has far better quality... the x-arcade is more versatile. My showcase cabinet was also created by Hanaho. Earlier this year a friend of mine and I gave hanaho a call to see if they still made showcase cabinets... but alas, no. They were still around though... at least... several months ago that is =/ Even when their website was up they never updated the damn thing.

I own a hotrod, it was my first CP.
For the money, it was great. Generally very good quality. Only problem was, from the day I got it, the purple overlay was bubbled.
Still have it though, even though one joystick and a few buttons are dead, and it's using an old PS2 pass-through cable. Someday I may opt to refurbish it with modern equipment...

Did you mean to use the word "was" instead of "were?"

Couldn't ya hear the twang in that part of the sentence?

Ahn-hahn. I felt there might've been more to things than my speculation gave.
