GameSpot has uploaded a video from CES 2012 showing off Mad Catz' new arcade sticks and fight pads for both Soul Calibur 5 and Street Fighter X Tekken. While showing off the arcade sticks they make note that when the two new SFxT V.S. sticks are connected they have the same dimensions as a 2 player Japanese arcade machine.

The idea of freely swapping the pads was incredible. Somebody at Madcatz gonna get a well earned pay check.

@gokaigreen you really should be ip banned from this website. Inthul and ch aren't as well known as fanatic and wolfkrone, he's just naming the first people who came to mind. I don't see how there could be anything racist about that. Everytime I read your comments I shake my head.

@6. No I was not trying to. I was just thinking off top since they're the 2 biggest tournament placers. I might as well say Vangief too then.

@10 master cj just recently started blowing up and yes I know sp00ky I'm a regular at next level. You're talking about paranoi but your questioning if the man Is making a racist joke just because he named two black players. I posted my comment a minute after you said something positive about the pad, meaning I probably didn't see it. But that doesn't matter, I see you posting on articles all the time, you always have something negative to say like in the article about dawgtanian. By the way you are clearly angry right now as if I raped and pillaged everything dear to you, I suggest you get medicated and stop being a Dick on EventHubs while you are at it.

@gokai
I'm not defending anybody here *wouldnt want to get you upset now*, but it seems your clearly paranoid. Take a look at comment @6. Does that look right to you?

In what way was he going for something racist?

*Just because YOU dont see anything racist about his comment doesnt mean it's impossible (Please dont be a detective)*

Umm, your the ONLY one who took his comment that way. Wolfkrone and Fanatiq are AMAZING players. Just asking here, but what did you think was racist about that remark he ment anyway? Was it because they were two black gentalmen?

What if he said Shizza would be happy? *ill save you the trouble of looking and just tell you he's white* I guarantee you wouldn't have made the same remark.

I did say Vangief too just to offset any preset ideas. I can't name every pad player in the FGC.

Yea, its on its way, I couldnt NOT buy that pad with those sweet options and configuration with it being able to do both ultras(all 8 buttons) on one side.

You should get it too - Support that pad innovation!

I actually wanted a tighter d-pad as well so my FADC's come out better online, I often input them too fast on the MCZ pad since its a bit mushy. In general I like that pad too though.

Im just posting to say that i would love if gokaigreen was banned. He never says anything but his stupid oppinions and clear trollbait. Dude is constantly negative and narrowminded.

@16

I know, I was about to buy one. It looks fantastic. But I've grown so used to my MC pad. And personally my game has never been better. So I don't want to switch.

It's not an issue for me because I like using the left shoulder for 3xP. But the Wireless was a huge issue for me, that's why I was going to switch.

But now I see MC ps3 is getting a cord! So I'm very happy:)

I was happy to recommend the Hori to you because I've heard people comment that they'd like both shoulder buttons on the right. They've solved your problem, and hopefully enhanced your game/gaming experience.

I'm Joppula on PSN. Hit me up. (I know your on PC)

Gotta admit that the Soul Calibur one gave me a bonner. Great stuff. The fightpad is horrible as always. Wish they would make them more plain.

I really like the linking of two arcade sticks, it makes it look so sleek.

Hopefully, if enough people contact catalyst, we might get a temporary(or permenant) ban on him, like others in the past. You guys remember that Ssjbizzle and ihateunity show? they were banned right?

@19 well, I agree, the corded is much better than cordless! I have used corded xbox mcz pads and also cordless PS3 MCZ on PC(ended up using that for replacement parts).

MCZ pads perform great, I just had bad luck with the dpads going on me...Another one the cord shorted out.

Wonder if you will like the 15% smaller thing?

Aluppoj said on January 11, 2012 at 1:39 p.m.

I know. 15% is going to be weird. But I used to use the Nubytech 15th anniversary pad.

Practically the same as the MC pad, just smaller. If you've never seem those pads (15th anniv) you should click those out.

Great pads from back in the day. And you can buy them on eBay fror pennies on the dollar!
