Stock Update - Surprising Restock 3/4/09 - Madcatz 360 Street Fighter 4 Controllers

Surprisingly, we just received another shipment of madcatz 360 street fighter 4 fight pads. Among the most popular yesterday were Chun-Li, which sold surprisingly better than runner-up Ryu. Ken's sells were mediocre, barely trumping blanka.

This seems like the last of it, with no word of any restock for any fightpads down the line, if you do decide to grab one, you may be able to hold it and sell it for double the price in the years to come, we'll never know.

Stock Update - 360 Street Fighter IV Collectors Back In Stock Thursday 3/5

As if the shortage of the madcatz fightpads wasn't bad enough, we breathed a sigh of relief in knowing that at least one item in the street fighter archives is finally available again, without any sort of extreme markup two or even three times beyond market price.

Tomorrow, we will be receiving small quantities of street fighter 4 360 limited collectors edition priced @ $89.99. The package bundle includes:

  • A limited-edition Crimson Viper figurine

Stock Update - 360 SF4 Fightpads, Sold out Restock Soon

We're officially sold out of the street fighter IV 360 fightpads! We hopefully will be receiving more from local vendors on Friday. We're unsure of prices at this point, but if the local vendors decide to sell at high costs due to the scarcity of the item, we will adjust accordingly.

Madcatz has stated that the second wave of controllers is still satisfying the first wave, and the third wave of controllers is coming in end of april / early may. Many vendors probably are sitting tight on stock in hopes of marking them up to tournament edition prices.

Stock Update - Akuma Street Fighter 4 Fightpads

Sorry folks, we received no 360 akuma's in this shipment. Akuma is so rare that even amazon doesn't have them. Each of the 4-set randomized boxes comes with generally one per character, but every so often, if lucky, we'll receive one akuma to every thousand fightpads

Today was such not the case. Please be advised that the emails sent out today were for all other four styles; Chun Li / Ryu / Ken / Blanka. Because the item was sourced locally, the price has been adjusted to $59.99 per controller.

Stock Update - Madcatz 360 Street Fighter IV 4 Fight Pads - In Stock!

An small wave of 360 street fighter IV 360 fight pads have arrived! We're opening each box in hopes of receiving an akuma fight pad, though we believe the chances are zero to none. We expect these to sell quite quickly, backorders will be filled today, akuma pre-orders will be cancelled and refunded.

Stock Update - Madcatz 360 Street Fighter 4 IV Fightpads - May Receive Tomorrow

Some good news! Madcatz may be releasing a small batch of their 360 Street Fighter IV 4 fight pads to us tomorrow!

Pricing is still not set just yet and will be adjusted as soon as a shipment from madcatz is confirmed.

Please be advised that this item may not be priced at retail because the items were sourced from multiple vendors during a time in which madcatz has extremely short supply of these pads, more updates to come tomorrow morning.
