Cool, I haven't seen a memory unit in ages. Nice! Any idea what a good price is for the joystick is? I've been aching to play SFII w/one.

I sold mine on eBay not long ago, it went for 15 Euro. That's the same price I bought it for earlier.

I just recently saw an auction for that joystick on ebay. They wanted a massive amount of money for the shipping. I passed it up. I have the mouse and the gun. Thats all I really need.

Was that the guy in Hongkong? I saw that too. They seemed to have a lot of stuff but I've only ever bought my copy of Dr Hauzer from them. Their pricing is somewhat creative.

I believe it was shipping from Japan. I decided against it becaue I would probably only play street fighter a couple times with it. Then I would try to put it on my shelf where my gun and mouse is and realise it will not fit.

for the record I'm paying about £10 for this one. It's boxed and it looks good - I quite fancy the entire 3DO 2D fighter back catelogue on it. I'm quite sure some of the other games will benefit too!

...I'm quite looking forward to it.

I was the winning bidder on the joystick actually. I sweet talked the seller before hand though, and got a really steep shipping discount. (It is amazing how many people will lower their prices if you ask ... I have done it many times) $80 bucks total w s&h ... nowhere near as good as 3DOKids deals, but still pretty darn decent I say.

It's a lot easier when you have a live in translator :)
