Hello Chums,
I hope that selling is OK around here, please let me down gently if not!
I've been a arcade joystick fancier for a good while now, as I grew up in the 'cades. I got into custom making a few years ago, I posted a couple that I made on GP32x if I remember right. Anyway, I've gone off fighting games possibly for good now, as they just seem to make me furious these days rather than getting any enjoyment out of them.
This coupled with a newly found strong will to get out of my debts caused me to start selling off as much of my hoarded gubbins as I could. It has helped significantly with my finances and my state of mind, but I must continue!
I am hoping to sell my PS3 modded Namco arcade stick if anyone is interested. It was a playstation 1 Namco arcade stick, I gutted the stock Hori stick and installed a Seimitsu LS-33 and Sanwa buttons; these are arcade machine grade parts from Japan. It has a wirless official PS3 controller PCB inside so it's a fully wireless bluetooth controller (possibly good for the pandora if anyone has got PS3 pads working via bt?). Added a 24mm button to the back for the home button, and the usb port is for charging the battery. It has one of my custom clear blue ball tops, I make and sell these with a friend. Hoping for £65 plus £8 postage to UK, will ship international but contact me for a quote.
Also selling my highly extravagant and expensive custom 'VAS' stick that I had commissioned from the US. Made by the extremely talented Voltech from Voltech Arcade Sticks, this has been completely custom built from scratch: black powder coated steel frame with exotic Ziricote wood sides; the wood has been impregnated with resin in a vacuum chamber, this makes it rock solid (literally) and smooth like a stone; this process has never been used on arcade sticks before, this guy is a pioneer!
Wireless xbox 360 pcb inside (had this done for me by a pro in the US). Seimitsu buttons and an LS-55 stick. Artwork was done for me by a friend. Plexi glass top.
This is one heavy mama. It's really a massive shame to sell it because it's beautiful and I love it, but it's sat of the shelf looking sad and needs must. It cost me a disgraceful amount of money to finish and have it shipped, but it was worth the expense, it really is one of a kind. I'm asking £150 plus £15 postage to UK, again please contact me for an international quote.
I almost forgot to add: If someone does want this then I am prepared to commission my friend to design you some new art for it, you may have to print it off yourself but he'll take your ideas/suggestions/examples and work with you until you have something that you're happy with and then provide you with the finished file.
