Hi evryone! Bear with me for a second as this is my 1st post here!
I was given, as a Christmas present, an arcade stick, of lesser value i think, named TinyBee Fighter 4 to use with my PC. Now, i used to play fighting games with my Xbox pad but always felt that something was wrong. So i tried MK9 and SF4Arcade and was astonished as how much of a difference a stick made. Even a cheap stick.
But itIS a cheap stick. Especially the joystick, when pressed downwards seems to bump to s/thing (internally) and make an awfull "plastic" noise. It also has a dead zone, meaning it is loose when left at the centre.
So, question is, what's my next move? Since i didn't pay for this i could spend some money improoving it. But what do you suggest? A spare part joystick (Sanwa or s/thing)to replace the lever? Which one? Can i buy it from ebay? Is it easy to replace? What about the buttons?
I live in Greece where NO arcade sticks are sold. I don't even think of buying a new one since shipping costs are outreagous and besides are WAY overbudjet.Seems i have to upgrade my new present...
Thanks for staying with me! Any advice will be most welcome!!!
