Hori Real Arcade Pro EX-SE (Xbox 360) With Seimitsu parts !

Post by Shin »

Hi though that you guys would be interested in this>

Stick>LS32
Btns> PS14-G

out feb' 08 for 13500Y (151$/117€/109£)

I own the normal HRAP EX version and I'm really happy with it.
but the cheapest alternative to that in the us/europe would be to get the street fighter IV TE Stick and mod it with Seimitsu parts...

on an other note, I just saw the new Roys for ps3>

I heard the stick is okay, the parts ares anything like Seimitsu or Sanwa but I guess it can be modded if you are willing too, and the swappable panel makes it quite unique :)

It's pretty cool that there's a Seimitsu alternative now. I might even be tempted to pick that one up over the Madcatz stick if I didn't already have a custom.

I tried and I can confirm it does. (latest 360 drivers have to be installed first)

That is a gorgeous stick. I'm on the fence about buying one, I don't even own an Xbox 360 yet - I want a Japan region model, but am loathe to risk getting faulty hardware. I suppose the longer I wring my hands and remain undecided, the better my chances of more reliable hardware being released. How about a redesign incorporating the hard disk?

get the latest "arcade" model, you'll get a "jasper" that has smaller gpu, 256Mb on board memory and a 120w psu. then had a harddrive. (you'll find it for cheap on ebay)

btw, this and the SFIV sticks are gonna be very limited in quantities, you better pre order one somewhere if you really want one.

NCSX is now accepting pre-orders for HRAP-EX SE ver.

NCSX is now accepting pre-orders for the XBox 360 HRAP-EX SE variant. But with a price tag locked in at $229.90 USD, that is a quite a sticker shock indeed. Endowed with Seimitsu arcade part all the way, it's $$$ well spent. ^_~

that exact same Roys has been existing for years for ps1/2 but with usb this time, seems pretty cheap to me too>

thing is, it's neither sanwa nor seimitsu, so I hope it not too hard to mod.

Tell me about it hahahaha! That tank has followed me for more than 5 years and served me well on PC, XBox and Dreamcast. It was time for an upgrade I guess. I'll keep the X-Arcade to teach my kid to punch buttons like crazy once he/she arrives in September :twisted:

hey, that's a pretty good video, but I guess it would be more interesting comparing a sanwa jlf and this seimitsu stick :)

Totally agree Shin! If the Mad Catz Tournament Edition FightStick gets another release I might get one and do a comparison between this one and the HARP EX-SE.

well I got my HRAPEX with sanwa jlf anf a neo geo stick (seimitsu LS32(?)) for ps2 I never use but I don't have a good camera sadly.

the différence is huge though, the seimitsu is very stif and has short throw range, the sanwa very soft and much wider throw range.

Good Luck, I really couldn't find it once NCSX sold out, I said F-It and just got a HRAP EX and ordered new buttons. I think I can survive without the Seimitsu stick.

Edit: Wow, I just got owned. Bastard I ordered from just refunded my money because they no longer have stock. Fuckin tight, now I'm just gonna have buttons.

Yeah, I shoulda been quicker... Also even the EX's were up on amazon pretty cheap with free shipping, and more on ebay but they are all long gone now, other than overpriced ones.

When I ordered, the person on eBay I was ordering from showed 16 in stock, of course the next day all were sold out. I'm so pissed, I'm not gonna pay $190 for that damn thing when amazon was selling for $130. I'm just gonna ride it out until the next stick is released or something else comes along.

bumpity bump!!
Not sure if you guys noticed, but..
You can preorder this for 139.99 at Amazon, in the US. available OCT 19. Free shipping.
http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-360-Real-Arc ... 917&sr=8-2
I mean seriously, 10 bucks more than the EX... I had to pay taxes on it though.

You can also order the plain EX non seimitsu version, 129.99, in stock (probably has been for a while, it was hard to get several months ago though)
