My first post and hope it's not the last :-)
I bought one myself—-it's $38.00 including delivery so I reckon it's pretty good. ( live in mel)

Are there seriously any joysticks out there that are 4 way? What is this - 1980???
No, but some people play 1980s games on MAME etc, that freak out if you hit a diagonal. ;-)
A lot of arcade joysticks (ie the ones they put in arcade machines) come with a "gate" so you can set them to 4-way control only for exactly this reason.
I have one and i think when you rotate the stick, it makes a square. it works, but isn't my favourite.
From the website
The FS3 Arcade Stick controller is perfect for fighting fans wanting to take their game further! Get true control over your fighter with this stick that's perfect for use with games like Soul Calibur IV, Tekken Dark Resurrection Online, or the upcoming Street Fighter IV and SF2 HD Remix!

I don't know honestly as I just ordered it a coulpe of days ago.
I had a look on this website for a video review on it, looks like it's moving 8 ways I suppose???…. :-)

Out of stock :(
Amazon gives it a 4 out of 5 rating on average, some reviews give it a flogging on button layout and slugginess.
Apparently works with MAME and SNES emulaters as well.
Damn out of stock, was going to pick up a pair.
Damn! Sonnnova… and I was looking for a cheap stick too :-(
this is cheap considering i bought it for $98 also at GAME
so you bought this few days ago,
and posting this on ozbargain on 23/12/2010 which the item is out of stock already?
i managed to get one when BigMark posted
Oh, because I couldn't post anything within 24 hrs after the sign up with ozbargain, that's why. Sorry they already all gone guys.
These sticks aren't very good, I believe they also have soldered buttons? Then again the prices is pretty low.
I'd rather pick up a TE stick again, shame my connection with iiNet is flaky.
Do me a favour? Test if the stick is 4 or 8 way.
