You're right, it is about preference. I think Tomo still uses American style parts, but Jeff & Alex have both switched to Japanese parts because they both feel their execution is better with them. As for MVC2, I think there are some benefits in that game with the American stick going back to neutral quicker. Marvel has pretty much always been played competitively more by Americans anyway. The one clear advantage Japanese parts have is with charge characters, with a square gate at least.
Custom Sticks... For your consideration....

I'd probably have to start somewhere around $140-$150 for the base stick (IL Joystick and buttons, DB15 only), add $20 for Japanese parts (joystick, buttons, balltop), add $20 for USB support (PC/PS3). Does this seem unreasonable?

Sexy sexy.
I like them! Personally, the AI stick has me set for Neo Geo.
However, if you offer 6/8 button set ups for supergun use and multi console support, I would be interested in picking up one.
Any chance you could do other arcade control panel themes? Egret II control panel or Astro City would look cool with the Japanese buttons and stick.

You can always have it printed out by someone else or a local place.

Any chance to get different artwork?
THese look great, I would be down for two sticks if it would be possible to order custom supergun button setups e.g. standard 4 button Neo Geo layout + additional 3 buttons on a row above to have an alternative six button SF2 style setup. Are the connections to the buttons accessible / swappable for different button configs?
MVS artwork is mega, would loose the top left logo though.
