Joystick Update:

Gatsu

Well a somewhat large update:

Did some experimentation last night and figured out how to cut the plexiglass tops properly, and get the button holes drilled. Its a little nerve-wrecking, but its not as bad as I thought.

I've also got one of the boxes almost completely painted. Just have to paint the insides and let it sit for 1 more night. While thats drying I can assemble CrypticCats stick and get that ready to paint.

The more I do the easier they get. The plexi-glass was the last real hurdle. The rest is a cake walk.

 

For those that might be interested, I offer 3 different style joysticks.

- The Classic:
• Happ joystick & buttons (up to 6 face buttons and 3 panel buttons on the back plate)
• Can work with PS2, Xbox 360 or PC (your choice)


- The Godhand:
• Sanwa buttons & Joystick only
• Ps2, Xbox 360 or PC


- The Grande
• Like the classic, but larger to accomodate the 2 extra face buttons
• Happ buttons & joystick
• PS2, Xbox 360 or PC

 

Thats it for now.

Im using Happ competition buttons, and the Happ competition joystick for the parts. But if you want something more specific I can get pretty much any parts.

How can you sell these sticks with Street Fighter and other games painted on them? Isn't that copyright infringement? Of course they wouldn't come after a small fish like you, but I was just curious about the laws regarding such sales.

Gatsu, put me down for one. We will work out how the payment to you and the shipping to me will be handled. As soon as you're confident you have a product worth selling, PM me.

I just don't worry about it. I'm not the only one out there selling custom arcade sticks with copyrighted characters on it.
