This question has prolly been posting a couple of times already but I couldn't find it. So I'm gonna do it again, sorry in advance!

I just got back on third strike thanks to the BC with the 360. 2 problems, first one is the lag (but we all know about that one), second one is the damn controller and the fact that I can't connect any arcade stick I got at home.

Questions:
1. Can I use a PS3 arcade stick (Hori) on my 360 because they both use USB;
2. Are there any convertors for sanwa (PS1) sticks available for 360;
3. Is the DOA stick for 360 any good?

Arigatou! :sweat:

No.

2. Are there any convertors for sanwa (PS1) sticks available for 360;
Yes, it is however insanely expensive at $80 and also requires a wired original pad.

3. Is the DOA stick for 360 any good?
No, the default components are crap.

people give doa stick a worse rep than what it deserves. not as good as a sanwa or seimitsu. but its the same hori sticks we all know (US t5 stick, FS1-3). shit works fine. would i rather use a sanwa or seimitsu? hell yeah. but i still think doa4 stick is a good alternative. plus it can get modded

Yeah, the DOA stick is an ok entry level stick. Its a lot better as a sanwa clone than the SFAC stick as a Happ clone.

I'd rather just use a custom with a sanwa, but you could do a lot worse (http://www.madcatz.com/Default.asp?Page=319).

Not trying to be dense.... I just want to be sure I understand. A non- modded Hori RAP will not work on a 360 with this converter.

Thanks

If I had a HRAP I would try it, I just got the converter and haven't been able to test it yet.
