Hello all, just wondering if anyone on here knows of any reviews for the stick being offered in the Aksys games store or any personal reviews from those who do own it. It does seem more expensive than some of the other sticks out there (I am not speaking of custom ones), like the SF4 one, so I was wondering how it handled. Thanks.
Any BlazBlue Arcade Stick Reviews?

It's exactly the same as the SFIV TE right down to the parts. The only difference I'm aware of is the artwork and the fact it's a small production run. As for the quality of the stick it's a Sanwa JLF with a square gate that feels nice and smooth. Buttons are responsive enough it's often triggered before you feel the depression.
In short if you like the art buy it, if you don't buy a SFIV TE or an HRAP.

MemberHey, that's not a bad idea. Aksys, how bout setting up a "Testimonials/Reviews" page on your website. People do like reviews you know. Also, the BBCS stick is nice. It may be exactly the same as the SFIV one but that's the reason why I didn't buy the SFIV. Duh, I wanted an official BBCS stick. I support and represent BlazBlue not SF.

Few weeks later Aksys unveiled the BBCS stick and i was depressed. Not that it matters since as a Canadian I can't use the Aksys store anyways, but still.

MemberJust look up reviews of the SFIV TE arcade stick and you know what you're in store for. I wanna get the BB Arcade stick, but damn that's gonna hurt my wallet :'( I hope I can buy one before they run out!

There is always the SFTES sticks that game out shortly after these. The design is slimmer and it has a button locking switch on it so you can't accidentally hit the Start and PS/Xbox buttons cause thats pretty much an instant DQ in a tournament.

Apparently the new HRAP, the one with the BB livery in Japan, is just as solid as the TE. Weird choice for the start button location though.Man, I loved it when Hori placed the buttons V-shaped than the usual layout. My fingers are freakishly long so I felt relaxed - and unstoppable ;)
Yeah, I still have my HRAP V.2 because of that, and when I'll get a PS3 I'll get one of those converters so I can still use it.I had the limited Tekken stick, too, but sold it once I figured how much of pain it would be to switch the buttons and stick with better parts. Figured may as well get a different stick with that much investment.

Pretty much its just the same as the SFIV TE sticks but with a Blazblue background in the back. You can always mod it to have your own background to the Blazblue background that they have or to your own choice, or change the button colors etc. It's pretty simple to do it, I plan on modding mine soon. There's templates around so you can just photoshop them.

The Tekken Stick is a POS with under par parts. If you want a real stick you should either get the SF TE sticks or a high end Hori stick. Also octagonal gates are horrible for 2D fighters because there's a greater margin of error during directional inputs.

MemberI agree with the last sentence. But damned if I waste enough money on a -your mother is a classy lady- stick to buy a damn Eck$bawk$ that I could use to play Let's Shoot Stuff as a Loli!
