Okay, this **** serisouly pisses me off, and intimadates me. I need to buy an arcade stick, but the information out there is so beyound my head.

Okay, I have a 360, not my choice for a consol, but I can't buy a PS3 right now so, I want an arcade stick for SSF4 and the new Guilty Gear, when that happens. Now, I want to buy something that will work on both the PS3 and 360 so I'm not butt ****ed when I go to a tournament or gaming lounge, and if it works on the Wii so I can practice Guilty Gear Accent Core and Tats versus Cap a bit, that be cool too, but not a necessary as I don't like Tats versus cap enough and GGAC is basically dead almost, and no tournies use the wii version of course.

Now, is there a stick that will do this, or am I have to mod it, and if I mod it, how much does that cost, and how hard is it/easy is it to break the arcade stick?

The guides on SRK and Dustloop are frankly over my head, given I have NO technical background at all. Help.

go to the tech talk forums and ur looking to mod ur stick if u want one stick to work on more then one system. i have a modded TE that works on ps3 and 360. or look at some youtube vids or find a tutorial with pics. some modding services would mod ur stick if u send it to them for a price

www.arcadeinabox.com If you want a dual system stick. Very pricey and not worth it imo. Just get a 360 SSFIV TE and someone will let you borrow a PS3 stick if necessary... trust me.

There are some converters you can buy to if you don't want to mod it, I believe. I have the TvC Wii stick and I believe it's easy to mod cause it's made by madcatz, which I read actually make awesome sticks.
