Question for arcade stick aficionados: Does anyone know if the Virtua Stick HSS-0136 works with a USA region Saturn? Thanks - I didn't want to start a new thread and figured I'd post here...
Saturn accessories, including memory cards and ram carts, aren't region locked.

Looks like a giant famicom cart. XD
Yup! Same colours pretty much.

This is so cool, very well done!

Thanks! I'd like to change the balltop to something else, but I can't decide on an alternative. I'm out of the loop on cool balltops available, so I should probably shop around and see what's out there.

Man I wish those Brawlsticks were still readily available and cheap. Those were the best deal.

Makes for a great second player stick... Got mine for twenty bucks.

And so easy to just swap the parts out on. I bought them for a bunch of friends when SF4 was first becoming popular. Now the prices are just dumb.

I have a Qanba Q1 (PS3) that I gutted of everything but the case/start button/menu buttons. I installed a Seimitsu LS-56 joystick and eight Seimitsu buttons into it and have it wired up to a db25 so I can connect it to my Jamma supergun or to consoles via a Cthulhu or PS360+.

Getting Seimitsu buttons to fit into the Qanba Q1's metal plate was a real pain, though. They're slightly wider then Sanwa buttons, so I had to take a grinder to them to sand them down some to pop in.

I can never just use one stick :P I have to build out a case for a specific game with parts I feel compliment it. I also have a Myoungshin Fanta Korean stick/case for Tekken but it is not assembled atm.
