Madcatz SF4 Tournament Edition sticks completely sold out


In a rather surprising turn of events for madcatz, the sf4 Tournament edition arcade stick is sold out everywhere, and i really mean everywhere: gamestop, eb games, amazon, play asia, gamecrazy etc etc

This is a first for madcatz who had a terrible, terrible reputation for the quality of their products few years ago and are now fully concentrating on the quality by giving consumers 2 years warranty on all their products.

If you haven't pre-ordered yours you will probably not get one with the release of the game. However Madcatz knows that there is a high demand for this sticks and while talking to joystiq.com the company's representative did let us know that the famous arcade sticks are going back to production.

From the article: " Alex Verrey, who was surprisingly candid about the situation. The issue is that the initial production run of the $150 Tournament stick consisted of 3,000 units. The company's pre-order count is now "many, many, times that amount," which Verrey admits caught the manufacturer by surprise. The sticks are currently going back into production, but it will take a little time for turnaround."


Awesome news to whomever did not preorder the TE stick and still wanna lay hands on that sexy thing.

I pre-ordered the other one in the mean time. The $80 one that is, but I was told it's just as good. So I will use that until they have the tournament one back in stock.

Thank God I pre-ordered the Tournament Edition stick two weeks ago.

No big deal at all! Just wait until they are in stock and get one. You will have one just not when you wanted it.
