I'm not sure what a te is, but I'm not happy with my PS3 controller for SFIV. Many motions and button combinations would be easier on a joystick with the 3 on top, 3 on bottom button layout. However, I just don't see myself paying more than $60 really.

The same reason why I haven't bought a Logitech G25 Wheel. I understand it's awesomeness: brake with variable resistance, clutch with manual transmission, and full 1080 degree rotation; but I don't see myself paying upwards of $200 for it.

Back to this arcade stick, aesthetically, I don't like the curvature of the buttons, that is I want them in a straight line as they are on an arcade machine. The stick itself is OK, but I prefer the stick that looks more like a hyperbola shape than the knob on the top. They're easier to hold. The one with the ball knob here reminds me of late 80's arcade machines.

I'm not trying to be critical, the OP was asking for opinions, and that's mine. It will be great if he can get it by the time of PC launch; I've played SF II, III, and all the Zero's on my PC through emulators and while it's entirely possible to beat the game on a keyboard, it helps to have a USB controller (even better if you have a USB Joystick!). However, because this joystick will be competing with USB controllers priced from $20 to $60, I would suggest pricing this joystick at $60-$90.
