I know the general consensus is that the Agetec stick is the best. They're also quite pricey (around $75-$100 used).
I was wondering if you good folks knew of a better (preferably cheaper) way to go. With all the great shmups and fighters on the DC, I'm a little embarased that it's taken me this long to get an arcade stick.
Many thanks!

Re: I'm in need of an arcade stick
hmm, I'm from belgium & the guy who has the extra lives here also, I guess it won't be cheap to send such a big box overseas...
it'll prolly be another 20 or so I think; when I order big things (like skateboards) from the US, it usually costs me between €25 & 35 to get it here
edit: I just checked ebay, & there are a few in the US round the same price, at least you'll get a cheaper shipment cost

all DC hardware is regionfree exept the original dc gun which isn't compatible with Death Crimson OX NTSC US (I believe, could be another game)

Re: I'm in need of an arcade stick
Yeah I'm afraid I'm gonna have to just bite the bullet and shell out the cash for one of the Agetec ones.
Crap!

Yeah, the good thing about DC stuff from Europe is that a lot of rare stuff here is worth nothing over there.
