I don't see why it is so expensive. Hell, not even for the full arcade pad is it that much is it?

That pad isn't really new though, it's been out for quite sometime now. It was only in limited production though (I think only 1000 were produced) and this was one of the first legit metal pads to ever be produced, even before cobalt flux and beat-gear, which maybe explains the high price tag.

This should be put in the console forum, considering you would be using the pad with a console.

And I could have swore those pads were discontinued.

Nope, those pads are DEFINATELY not fake. I even have one. They're the best pad I've ever played on, a true arcade feeling.

*coughripoffcough*

how can they charge so much for that??? You could probably buy a used 3rd mix for less than that!

By the way, this is not the metal pads for playstation that we heard about years ago. I saw those and they were exactly the same as the arcade but they connected to a playstation. These have been changed slightly to be thinner and are one pad at a time instead of a doubles setup. Just so you know, this IS a new konami pad.

Maybe they should manufacture a $200 pad to compete with Cobalt Flux and stuff...
