VF-themed mod of Madcatz VS fightstick

    I finally got around to modding my Madcatz SFxT VS Fightstick (360 version). I replaced the stock buttons with the new Sanwa clear-rimmed, solid-plunger buttons in the Virtua Fighter color scheme and replaced the black balltop with a black mesh balltop. Internally, I added a "TE Kitty" to give compatibility with a large number of consoles (Xbox360 [stock], PS3, PC [360 mode or Kitty mode], PS1/PS2, Xbox, Sega Saturn & Dreamcast, Gamecube / Wii, NES & SNES, and TurboGrafx-16 / PCEngine. Might even be forgetting some.) Lastly, I put in a "Remora" RGB LED controller board and "ArcEye3" RGB LEDs. I am waiting for a custom "Astro 6" replacement top panel and plexi; Then I will have VF-themed art commissioned for the top, side, corner, and center sections.

    To learn more about the TE Kitty, Remora, or ArcEye3, visit the SRK Tech Talk forums. HUGE props to Toodles (gdlk.co) and Purplearms for these amazing electronics. I would also like to thank focusattack.com, paradisearcadeshop.com, tek-innovations.com, and thegamesurgeons.com (Lightning Label Customs) for their services to the FG community.
