Where to find Virtua Stick High Grade - Blu-ray Forum

ascian · 01-05-2009, 06:00 PM

I've recently gotten back into fighting games for the PS3 and was looking for an arcade stick. After deliberation, I've decided on the Sega Virtua Stick High Grade. Apparently I'm a bit late to the party as the usual import spots are sold out and some ebay seller wants $200 when the thing retails for around $70.

Could any of the kind folks out there help me track down a reliable site that is selling this item and has them available? I'm about googled out.

I'm aware of other sticks from Hori, the HRAP3, xarcade, etc. but this is the stick I want and all I'm asking for. Thanks.

Unfortunately, that stick never made it state side, so it will be extremely difficult finding one. You probably won't find one for less than $150 if you can even find one.

Reportedly there's a Street Fighter IV stick coming out that's supposed to be pretty good. I'd suggest keeping an eye on play-asia.com to see if the high grade stick, or another good one, becomes available in Asia again.

Yeah I've seen the SF4 tourney stick. But it's madcatz. And it's $150. I think I'd rather get an HRAP3 for $90 and swap some buttons regardless of what anyone says about it. The joystick itself is more important to me though, and the online consensus seemed to favor the VFHG for that.
