Stock Update - Fighting Stick 3 PS3

I'd have to say, the amount of sticks selling the past few days has been quite ridiculous. Honestly, we can't even keep up with demand. I wouldn't be surprised if street fighter IV would be more effective than the stimulus signed by President Obama.

After reaching out to our suppliers the past few days, all remaining reserves of any controller resembling a fighting stick have been snatched by retailers and wholesalers alike. Luckily, we were able to lock down small quantities of the ps3 fighting stick 3. Initial quantities will arrive on friday, but the remainder of the shipment will arrive early next monday.

For those wondering about the quality and sales stats of the other sticks, I would highly recommend the Hori Real Arcade Pro EX for 360, and the Hori Real Arcade Pro 3 For PS3. We've already had a few returns from customers who prefer hori over madcatz. The madcatz sticks have received generous hype, but Hori still trumps in quality and durability.

Customers were primarily concerned with the madcatz sticks sticky lollipop joystick. I don't like creating a false sense of urgency, but I do strongly encourage all buyers to purchase any stick as soon as possible to avoid any unreasonable price hikes into the $300's.
