SF4 TE Stick Art mod help

[AnitaLife]

Ok so finally got the parts and artwork+plexiglas top assembled. Here are the actual photos of the real stick.

Note the custom dush washer under the stick.

Some Additional Custom Washers

I also got a bit carried away and bought this recently as well... not as good as the TE stick (obviously) but when I saw it I had to get it (one of those brash spontaneous moments). Never owned a NeoGeo growing up eventhough I wish I did but now I can have something memorable from that time period on my PS3.

I've been looking everywhere for Neogeos.
Where can you find that?

If i had one of those, i'd be a smidge better with Sophitia than usual

Goddammit! Curse my 10th grade ghetto boy education. I would love to be able to do stuff like this but I have no idea what y'all are talking about.

Has nothing to do with being a ghetto boy. Some people are more inclined to do this type of stuff. People like us, pay them for their work. It's like they are the blacksmiths of the fighting game community. You know?

I found this at a local import shop. I've never owned the original Neo Geo but to the best of my knowledge, its not as good as the original Neo Geo Stick, in fact far from it. It's a replica for use on a PS3 (SNK licensed by Exar Japan) but it feels cheap and made of light plastic. Buttons arent that great on it either. It's mainly for looks and retro appeal but I wouldn't use it for serious gaming other than for casual fun. I tried it with MAME and Neo emulators so it does work on the PC (as long as you adjust settings in MAME/EMU config). Costs about $80 bucks. But if you're gonna spend money on a decent stick, I'd save a little more and get either HRAP or Mad Catz SF4 TE stick instead.

Yeah that makes sense. But I'm so goddamn retarded I wouldn't even know where to start. I just know I'd love to put some pretty S.C. themed artwork on my stick.

Yeah mines been on hold forever. Laid off :/

Also when putting in my buttons I discovered the hidden layer of madcats quality. Up top the glue that holds the screws broke and now the screws free spin...THEN on the bottom the screws were already worn and after only undoing and rescrewing them once they're stripped.

My corners act funny and sometimes drop input and i cant get into the damn thing to swap out the stick or replace broken microswitches.

Nice job on your design though.
