Title: Multicade Canada
Post by: bertman77 on February 04, 2015, 11:58:34 am

Quick review of Multicade Canada.

Building my first cab and I ordered a combo kit and some extra buttons from Multicade.ca.
The combo kit included 2 classic Zippy 2/4/8 way joysticks, 12 push buttons and P1/P2 buttons with Acemake switches.
I got most of my order within days of paying. I received the switches for the extra buttons that I ordered, but not the buttons themselves.(Remedied within a day of me bringing this to their attention)
Packaging was neat and tidy, everything came bubble wrapped and protected.

Buttons work great, the joysticks are great, my only "complaint" was that the balltop colour doesn't match the button colour exactly. No big issue here, it's serviceable until i replace it with a different balltop.

The Good:
Great service
Great pricing
Shipping costs weren't outrageous
They're Canadian!

The Bad:
Nothing on their end

All in all it was a great first hardware purchase for my first build.
I will be using them again.

Wait, I thought Rick was the only Canadina multicade guy?  ???

Nope.

If Rick had a website, I'd take a look at the products he offers, however i am waiting patiently with everyone else to see his wares.

Oh, I see Multicade Canada has parts but no cabs. So it's a bit different than what Rick offers. Cool deal.

Which one is the vendor that shows up at conferences without any product?
