Gootecks previews Street Fighter X Tekken on PS Vita and Nyko's ambidextrous fightstick at E3 2012

CompLexityINSIDER has uploaded two videos showing off a couple of different products at E3 2012. In the first video, Gootecks plays Street Fighter X Tekken on PS Vita and tries out cross play between a Playstation 3 and Vita.

The second video also features Gootecks and this time he tests out the new Nyko fightstick. This fightstick is ambidextrous meaning the stick portion can be detached from the buttons and connected on the other side to switch from a right handed stick to left handed.

Hit the jump to check out the Nyko fightstick preview.

ooh, nyko getting in on the stick mix, interesting.
hope they can turn their quality around madcatz style and also bring some new ideas (gimmicks) to the table :)

heard from several sources that the nyko stick's buttons are ass! May need to be modded as soon as you buy it.

I like how Gootecks was straight out honest. I'm assuming its the buttons and possible delay with the joystick/buttons. With that said, will look forward to Gootecks new path in life.

I bet he misses the high intense nerve racking tournament-like environment though :)

Haha! the Nyko stick has "Free fighter" stamped on the face of it.

I'd be too embarrassed to own a stick that had macro capabilities on it. There also doesn't seem to have enough surface are on it to rest your hands.

Did the stick pass the 'throw down' test?

Video 1) I swear the PS3-Vita version is lagging horribly in frames.

Video 2) That stick is extremely classy. But I hate the inclusion of turbo.

great idea of the ambi on the stick, i would buy if it weren't for the "issues"

i hope nyko will fix the issues, i already got 2 TE's, but this innovation of ambi fightstick would make me buy a 3rd

Nyko if you knew the community, you would know that the name "Free Fighter" was not a good idea. Why is the stick so small? I know they want a piece of the market and are looking to mobile gamers, but at least make it the size of a SE. And if your really that "hardcore" you would prefer to take a larger stick, just for the comfort anyway.

haha man good too see there is honesty out there truth sucks sometimes but most people would been like oooh this is fantastic but gootecks said you got issues which can save nyko in the long run hopefully management understands to prolong releasing it. But the shape of this reminds me of sega cd lol.

I like how small that stick is. That does not look like $180 worth of product there, though.

Nice stick. Does the button layout is automatically inverted?

lp, mp, HP, PPP - > PPP, HP, mp, lp or not?

Either way, we can configure it on options, but is just a curiosity.
