I would have bought that controller up in a second if I was into 2d fighters like I was in HS.
Back then my friends an I, in the search for the best NES Arcade pad for Street Fighter Championship Ed, bought $150 sticks or "jimmies" as we used to call them. They weren't even close to the quality of this one.

how close do you really have to get
are those any closer together then the controllers at an arcade?
although I guess your standing at an arcade.. and would probably be sitting at home.

That thing would be a bitch to store. Bad enough with the keyboard and two arcade sticks but that? Where does it go when youre not using it?

I had a Blaze stick for the PSX and I took it back. The buttons feel very cheap, and the sticks just arent very responsive. I have a Japanes Capcom Impress Cabinet(Sit Down Style) and I was hoping the Blaze stick could replicate the japanese control experience but it didnt. So, I stuck with my MAS stick. Go check out www.massystems.com for really good controllers. These are by far the best arcade sticks you can buy, and they are worth every penny.
Personally, I hate USA style joysticks and buttons. Japanese sticks and buttons are just plain better for many reasons.
Hope this helps.
