Hey folks!

I have for sale two Neo Geo AES joysticks.

They've been modified with Seimitsu 24mm screw-in buttons, as the original buttons were total rubbish. I've also swapped the ball-tops with Seimitsu bubble balls; blue for 2UP and red for 1UP.

If you have a burning desire to return these to stock, the original buttons and balltops are included. Red's balltop is nearly uncracked, Blue's has the typical cracking you'd see on a stick this old.

Red is in better cosmetic shape than blue; Blue has minor scuffs on the plastic housing around the logo near the bottom. I've tried to illustrate that in my photos.

Both work spectacularly, and are only being replaced because I have built myself a full Astro City 2UP panel.

I'm thinking $65 shipped for each of these, or if you buy them as a pair (which you should totally do) $115 shipped.

AND NOW THE PICTURES COMMENCE

If you're in NYC, I'm happy to have you over to test-drive the sticks before you buy.

Let me know!

I did this mod to my AES stick, and it makes a HUGE difference.

The original buttons are really awful. It seems like a lot of the higher end sticks in the 90s had crappy buttons and good seimitsu sticks.

The squeak from the buttons on my stick when playing AF2 were the reason I was relegated to the spare room to play neo by my other half :(
