yeah... unless its coming out.

I am working on relations with Hori... I hope to be going direct with them soon.

I'll ask my contact and see. BUT..... I will be carrying more Hori products at my site once I get hooked in with them direct.

Actually from what I gathered, those pads being sold at GameCrazy and at that site are the US versions of the Hori gamepad. I think Hori USA also brought some of those Final Fantasy Clock too. I heard they have some PSP products in America as well. If you're talking to Hori already, why not ask them about this... :buttrock:

I just got an email about this, someone asking about the US version, so I thought I'd stop by and clear it up.

This is the official US version of the Hori Digital Gamecube Controller. US packaging and everything. We're actually listed with Hori as one of the only online providers of the controller, so if you're not sure, give Hori and email and ask them where you can buy the controller. They'll link you to us.

Helion, so far, the products Hori has brought to the US has been the Onimushu sword, the Vana Deil clocks, the digital gamecube controller, gamecube memory cards and the most recent, the Tekken 5 arcade stick.

Bluevoodu,If you need a contact at Hori, let me know. We've got a few contacts with them and I'll see who you need to talk to.

So far as I know, Hori is still planning on bringing out the stick separate from the Tekken 5 bundle. No dates or anything yet, but whenever I know, I'll let you guys know.
