looking for arcade stick

hey all,
I'm looking for a good site that has cheap prices for arcade sticks for the sega dreamcast since I'm now trying to get the world record on Under Defeat. also it would be nice to play my 2d fighters with an arcade stick instead of a fighting controller.

I would like to help you on your quest

What you're looking for is the Agetec stick. I found this one on SRK:

And this one has a semitsu stick and sanwa buttons, which is pretty much the perfect setup for shooters:

thanks for the help but I can't see any of those 2 links even after registering there.

You might need to wait a bit for them to verify your account before you get access to the trading forum. I don't recall exactly how long it takes, but not more than a day or two.

if you mean adding art, the easiest way is to take your art file to kinkos and have them print it on adhesive backed vinyl. personally, i like the stock design of the stick and wouldn't bother with art. you should be able to find template files over on srk for this stick to help you with the layout and alignment

shipping from Japan might be pricey though :/
