My damn nemesis!!!!
I have been trying to pick one of these up for ages but as yet have been unsuccessful. Why you ask? Surely your Defcon, the man that can found the 10 Million Model PlayStation in the wild! A silly little joystick can’t beat you can it?
Well yes it can. Mainly because the price of this stick has risen in the last 4 months from around ??25 to a whopping ??60!!!!!
So for those of you that have one, please tell me why it is worth ??60 when the Ascii Ware stick only goes for a few pounds.

my dear friend,
I have one MINT boxed - the one I personally bought in Scotland AND, joy-joy, a boxed one where the box has some flaws but is in good collectible condition overall - the stick itself is in perfect condition. Pics can be shot if interest arises 
BTW, you’re lucky because I already sent 2 spare ones away this year!
As for your question why it is so darn expensive - you will know why when you hold one in your hand

I’m also still looking for a nice boxed Namco stick. I wanted it much more than the ASCii stick, but I got that one instead. (But I never made a *real* effort to try and get my hands on a Namco stick.)
Namco = PlayStation, and vice versa. I guess that’s why everybody wants a Namco stick.

I bought my Namco Arcade Stick solely for shooters like “Viewpoint” as I’m not into these 2D, 3D StreetMortalTobalTekkenFigher games. It’s really a great experience and I felt like playing an arcade game 15 years ago. It’s best quality and quite heavy as the bottom side is an iron plate.

Having tested Viewpoint I can say having a Namco stick or not makes no difference.
It is still bastard hard
