Hori Real Arcade Pro EX

Hori has rolled out the Real Arcade Pro EX arcade joystick for the Xbox 360 as the console's regular gamepad is clearly inadequate to cater for hardcore fighting games that work best with a joystick. You get eight oversized action buttons as well as a ball-grip joystick that harkens you back to the time where arcades were dank and dark places, featuring machines that swallowed quarter after quarter. Perfect for those who love duking it out on Xbox Live Arcade, but it works best in fighting games if I have not yet stressed that fact enough already. It won't be cheap though, retailing for $112 or so after conversion, and that is not even taking into account shipping and handling fees.
