Show Your Fightstick

So question would you guys recommend I get a Ps4 fightstick? Because not every fighting game is going to have the PS3 drives. Is it worth it?
Right now there aren't any fighting games exclusive to PS4 that are worth getting a fightstick for IMO. You could get a PS3/PS4 fightstick- that way you can get more use out of it. Unless there are games currently out on PS4 you want a fightstick for I would say wait on getting a dedicated PS4 fightstick.

I guess it depends on how many PS4-exclusive FGs you plan on playing

I plan to play a lot PS4 is my main FG console.
 
In that case, I'd probably say that it's worth it - how else would you play on it? Of course 'worth' means something different to each person, but yeah. Meow is probably right that now isn't the best time, as the console is still relatively new and prices will continue to drop and newer/cheaper models will be released over time, but that means a longer wait where you aren't able to play on PS4. Unfortunately, that's all a decision only you can make.

Another option would be to get your current PS3 stick modified to use a PS4, which should be cheaper than getting an entirely new stick, but of course relies on there being someone relatively close to you who can do that sort of thing.

Oooh, for a moment I thought you catched some paranormal shit while taking the photo. Really cool!

Is it a model inside the ball or a flat drawing? If it's a model how does it look from a different angle?
 
It's a 3D model developed from screenshots of cutscenes (the Eliza and Beo patched massively helped with this as they added new artwork showing the Skullheart from different angles) as well as input from me helping get the finer details right, such as colouring to try and get that silhouette effect without the help of a light source, and the way the arteries and veins look torn at the end (early renders had rounded ends and looked too much like horns).

I just felt that this thing really needed to exist.

Bonus content: here are some of the prototype test prints, and the collection of failed castings which he also sent me, as apparently getting such an irregular shape to stay aligned, while keeping bubbles out, proved quite challenging.

God Damn I'm jealous. Maybe I should get a casing. I wonder what it should be though?
 
It's weird seeing bling ass balltops and then remembering you play on hitbox.
 
Nah this is the only way to play

This is the TRUE way to play

Nice! I love Tek's cases, I have two of my own. Would you mind posting some more pictures of the top and bottom of your stick?

Go back To page 8. I posted it here when I built it.

Currently in the middle of redoing the artwork but it does look good without also.
 
So can anybody look over my shopping cart and see if I'm missing anything I might need to put together a hitbox? I already ordered a tek case with a neutrik hole.

personally I would advise using a usb neutrik passthrough -- I've had lots of issues with the rj45 to usb cables disconnecting

looks fine otherwise though, I'd strongly advise getting some of the adhesive pcb feet also for ease of installation esp. using a tek case but you can make it work with just zip ties or something similar
 
Really? I would think an rj45 connector would hold better than a usb port. The only time I've had problems with an ethernet cable not staying plugged in was when the cable itself had the little clip broken off. USB ports? I've had a couple of those get looser than OP's mom.

ymmv but the rj45 stuff I've ordered from FA has all had disconnecting issues
 
RJ45s are basically required if you're intending to do anything legacy console related with that PCB.

Ok, that's kind of what I'm intending to do. Thanks.

Yup. I use a PS360+ rather then a Cthulhu and the only pinout guides I've ever seen for original Xbox, Dreamcast, or PS1/2 are for RJ45.
 
Yeeeee, everything's so nearly complete.
 
It's just one of the MCZ SFIV special edition 360 sticks.
the Y button is replaced with an arcadeshock xrd zato button since my mp started failing a few months after I started using it.
Picture that? good.
I got the stick for thirty bucks. You will never find a better deal than that.

The base stick I modded and showed off way back on page 1 I got for free. ;)

That reminds me, I really have to get around to posting my current stick.

Oh boy, are you sure you can post it? Not that I don't like it you know. You bought it?
 
I bought the pieces, and put everything together. I used foam washers to silence the buttons, but they're for 30mm buttons instead of 24mm buttons, so they're very firm. And why wouldn't I be able to post it? I mean, there's already a dickstick, and someone posted one with a naked black guy.
 
I remember there being a no porn rule on Skullheart.
