I will hack a Dual Shock 3 PCB (better battery) and wire it myself (I am pretty good at that).
The usb is for loading the battery when it has run dry from all the playing ^_^.
The body is Walnut. The case was routed out off a single piece off wood, nothing is glued or nailed together.

No hate here .... nothing wrong with it and as I already said give the guy credit for something beautifully made ......just expressing my personal taste......( last time I looked it was free to do that here or would you prefer it like NG.com ? ) to me its like those guys that go out and buy a Turbo badge to stick on the back of their car as if that somehow makes it better.... perhaps its the fact that its cab branding that makes me feel like that ...hmmmm ... dunnoStrider77 wrote:a good looking stick that works well is fine... wide would you bother to make something ugly yourself. go hate somewhere else or play your ugly good working stick and be happy.
I guess I simply wouldn't bother making a stick when I could put the time and effort into making money to buy a cab....
Now if you had a Viewlix AND the stick AND then you could use the stick to wirelessly operate your Type X-2 instead of sitting at the cab then that would be kind of cool....
BTW: with 4 cabs I won't be needing any stick any time soon ...... as for the "ugly stick" i'll leave that behind so they can keep hitting you with it...

For TheRealNeoGeo,
Taito ought look to your cool custom-made Vewlix joystick controller and make a limited batch of them just for the novelity factor. ^_~
Why not a have a Taito themed Egret II or Egret III custom made joystick to accompany the Vewlix one? After all, they all part of the Taito family line-up of arcade cabinets.
