i have PS3 Mad Catz Street Fighter IV FightStick Tournament Edition (Viewlix layout)
this is a good stick..only the screw start rust which look a bit ugly.
if can get 2nd hand at <half price of alpha also good if just want play on PC.

others i have is PS5 Hori Alpha (Noir layout) & Mayflash F500 Elite (viewlix layout and comes with exchangable square gate)

when put on ur lap.. alpha wins from weight and stability.
TE edition wins from rigidity...
