for anyone thinking about getting an x-arcade tankstick.....

<< < (3/3)

Turnarcades:
I'll go on record as saying I'm really not a fan of them similar to the reasons above; the encoder isn't fantastic in every X-Arcade and the standard buttons/switches are a little cheap. My other gripe from our point of view is that we get so many requests from existing owners to integrate them into a cabinet and it's a battle convincing them they simply don't integrate well and to sell up instead.

However, I'd say they're brilliantly priced, solidly built and actually a decent product, provided they are to be used as a part-time desktop solution only and owners accept they are good as a 'stepping stone' only, before upgrading to a proper arcade cabinet and selling their X-Arcade to fund it.

Donkbaca:
^^^ This.  Its a great product for what it is IMHO, I think the joysticks are underrated.  I would never integrate it in a cab, but its a solid plug and play perfromer for the first time MAME user
