That's what I'm using. It's an OK stick if you're very precise in your motions, but years of sloppy playing on my part means my motions are anything but precise, and to be honest, I doubt I can break that habit. The problem is, if you rotate the joystick around, you'll notice that it rolls in a square shape instead of a circle. Which means while the stick may look and feel like a genuine arcade stick, it doesn't work exactly like one, and you will need to give emphasis to your diagonal commands.PenPen wrote:[hr]
I looked up on Play-Asia and somehow this stick is being sold, made by Mayflash.

For anyone who cares for the details, the stick has 8 buttons on the main board, and 4 more smaller buttons on top for Turbo, Macro, Select and Start respectively. If you're using Windows XP or Vista, the stick will be automatically detected when you plug it in, though installing the drivers let you program macros.
The controls in 98UM are very forgiving, so I don't get junk inputs, but playing '98 on WinKawaks (or Neogeo Mode in UM) is a different matter altogether, and /qcb motions require proper motioning on my part. Which of course is no problem if it's just a or input, but pulling a Ryuko Ranbu requires more precision than I'm used to, which of hurts when I screw up a combo because the DM doesn't launch. The half-circle and charge commands are no problem though. Generally, SNKP tones down the motioning sensitivity for console ports: I tried playing Maximum Impact Regulation A, and the game commands mostly register smoothly.
My conclusion is, it's an affordable stick that works for PS2/PS3 and PC, and it does its job well enough for what you're paying for, but you should only get this stick if you're the type who motions precisely, or are willing to improve. Otherwise if you're sloppy like me, go for a dedicated PS2/PS3 stick which is a lot more forgiving. Its price is a real draw however: I ended up paying almost as much as I did for the shipping as I did for the stick!
