I love the idea behind this product, but the price is pretty ridiculous in my opinion. Maybe $300 for the stick and $200 for the table, with the cost of shipping factored in.
Thanks for the review! I completely agree that this is a decent alternative to an original Japanese candy cab. I'm currently trying to advance from fightsticks to a cab and since I want something with a modern flat screen there aren't that many options. Taito Vewlix is definitely one of them but it's not cheap! If you don't happen to live in the same country and you don't manage to find group delivery then be ready to pay more for transport and customs than the actual cabinet. Then once you get it you probably won't be happy with the ancient monitor so it's even more expenses. Question. To what degree would you say does the PC shelf affect overall stability? I would rather get rid of it for more leg room.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! The shelf relies more on the base than the other way around. It's pretty thin and doesn't really serve a purpose other than hold your game consoles. I switched the shelf over to the middle part of the base and didn't notice anything different. I would say that it's safe to not install the shelf. The weldments and the stick are enough for providing sturdiness.
Yeah, Heihachi is a bad son, bad father and a terrible grandfather rolled in one. Not only did he imprisoned his father in the dojo, tossed his own flesh and blood (Kazuya) off a cliff but also shot his own grandson in the head.
@@vikingfromnorth45 Even if Reina does reclaim the Zaibatsu back, it’s gonna be very difficult for her to repair the Mishima Zaibatsu and its stained reputation, even though she unlocked her devil powers. She couldn’t afford to do anything rash that might put herself in the crosshairs of either Yggdrasil, UN or even the Kazama clan.
I believe there's plenty of room to expand upon Reina's story. There are still many questions about her origins and how she knows Mishima style, but she seems to share all his beliefs. I would like future games/expansions to delve deep into the character.
I don't know how consoles work but a PC would be super easy. - Both audio setups go into a mixer and into a PC. - Monitors can be easily duplicated in Windows. - Controls are also very easy. Since it's 2 boards your PC and with it the game will see two input devices. You can then ingame determine who's P1 and who's P2.
this would be perfect if they had the functionality to swap between a flat keyboard/mouse surface and the Arcade Stick Area being closer to user. ergonomic nightmare for reaching over the arcade controls to use keyboard and mouse.
Switchable arcade and kbm sounds like either more of a ergonomic nightmare, or a worse idea than just a normal desk, kbm, and separate arcade stick. Constantly having to attach/detach a peripheral that's supposed to attach to the desk just for a few key presses sounds horrible to me, saying as a sim racer. Imagine constantly (dis)mounting the wheelbase when you can, you know pick up a wireless keyboard?
Nice review! Got 2 questions if you don't mind. 1. Is the distance between the joystick and buttons the same as an Obsidian or are they further apart? I prefer more distance so was wondering. 2. What monitor are you using and stand are you using?
1.The buttons will be further away from the joystick than the Obsidian (vewlix) layout. 2.In addition, the monitor stand can be placed on the desktop with the original, and if you use a third-party stand, they have a desktop thickness that identifies the back clip stand support. At the moment I'm using an NB monitor stand
Thanks so much! To answer your questions: 1. The distance between the joystick and buttons is 3 inches. I don't own an Obsidian, but it looks like the space between the stick and buttons is further than that of the Obsidian. 2. I'm using an Insignia 32-inch Class F20 Series Smart TV. The feet holding the TV up come with the package. You can find one here: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09ZLTMWWH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Hope this helps!
That's true. Initially, the reason why he was thrown off the cliff was to prove that he was worthy of being a Mishima. When they introduced Kazumi in 7, that's when they explained the backstory of the Devil Gene. I just brought up one of the reasons to give the first game some context.
@@dragonpunchtvgood video! I like to believe his personal feeling was to eradicate the devil gene and to toughen him up, but as a public figure he would say it's only to make him stronger and hide any evidence of the devil
@@Michafrar Thanks! I completely agree with you. If the public knew initially that Heihachi's heir was a power-hungry tyrant with a demon inside him, it would raise a lot of questions. This goes hand in hand with my point about Japanese sons carrying on the family name and making their fathers look good. Cross Kazuya's hatred for his father with the stigma of having the devil gene, you have a man who's free from feeling any guilt or remorse about his actions. He could only take so much of Heihachi's abuse before he threw away any regard for his family's name.
I have the exact same QVC one and really love it; however, I've bought so many more cabs that I need to make room and put it up for sale for $325, now I'm having second thoughts lol
In xmen c.o.a. if you are using storm in the original arcade she has an extra super. Once the meters full do a fireball motion and hit the player 1 or player 2 button depending upon the side your playing. She'll do an ice storm attack that's pretty powerful. I'm sure that it'll work on the 1up machine.
This is from the arcade release of Toshinden 2. It was published by Capcom and used a different soundfont from the console version. That's why it sounds like something from a CPS2 game.
@@dragonpunchtv oh wow, that's really interesting thanks so much for the info! I've been interested in BAT stuff for a while but I'd never even heard of this port before
i think him and whoever voiced dracula were the only good voice actors in symphony of the night also its weird hearing him withouth the echo effect that every character had in that game
Robert Belgrade's SotN Alucard and Neil Newbon's Astarion from Baldur's Gate III are the two videogame Vampires I always get a very huge and satisfying boner for 😘
