NAT Type 1?  What's that?

What are Sanwa parts used for?
Sanwa is the leading arcade parts manufacturer in Japan, hence most consider them to be the best in the world. Unless you prefer American-style Happ parts. Their competitor is Seimetsu and they produce equally good and stylish parts as well. It's all up to one's preference. My tumpang is ONLY for Sanwa parts, though I would like to have Seimetsu in future.

What can I order?
Only common Sanwa components which fit in your custom stick / HORI Real Arcade Pro (RAP) / Mad Catz SE like:
• buttons (OBSF-30 snap-ins, OBSN-30 screw-ins) - of 30mm (normal) and 24mm (start/select) variety.
• button plugs (OBSM-30 or OBSM-24)
• joysticks (JLF-TP8Y-SK so far, comes with square restrictor gate by default)
• ball/bat tops (LB-35~lollypop preferably, which works on standard JLF sticks. The LB-30-N~baseballbat will need a separate adapter)
• gate restrictors (GT-Y octagonal restrictor plate. The JLF on your HORI RAP3 sticks are fitted with the square gates by default)

Is the 8-way (octagonal) gate for me?
Most people have the impression that 8-way will be better in executing moves but in reality you may find it harder due to having less precise control at the diagonal corners e.g. jump straight up to avoid fireball -> jump forward instead -> eat shoryuken

How can I order?
1) Research for your preferred parts e.g. http://www.lizardlickamusements.com/ or http://www.akihabarashop.jp/

2) Conduct further research at http://forums.shoryuken.com/forumdisplay.php?f=177 if needed, carefully. Please try your best not to ask me as I really can't respond to too many PMs.

3) Give me the parts' MODEL and preferered COLOUR, followed by NEXT CHOICE OF COLOUR

4) I will then calculate according to the price.


How much will this cost me?

1) Depending on the forex rate, but payments will be through my Maybank2u account, in RM

2) Benchmarks so you get the rough idea (as per 31/03/2009)

1.00 USD = 3.64557 MYR
1.00 EUR = 4.85012 MYR
200.00 JPY = 7.40604 MYR

3) All price excludes shipping:

• Sanwa OBSF-30 / OBSN-30 Pushbutton = RM12
• Sanwa OBSF-24 / OBSN-24 Pushbutton = RM10
• Sanwa OBSM Series 24/30mm Hole Plug = RM7
• Sanwa GT-Y Octagonal Restrictor Plate = RM20
• Sanwa GT-8N 4/8-Way Restrictor Plate = RM20
• Sanwa Joystick Adapter = RM2
• Sanwa LB-35 Joystick Ball Top = RM24
• Sanwa JLF-TP8Y-SK Ball Handle Joystick, stock square gate = RM85

Shipping will be shared, and will be dependent on the size of this single order I am making. Once the items arrive, I will designate a common meeting place in either KL or PJ. I will also Poslaju to outstation buyers, at the price of the actual postage.

It's ok, let me know tomorrow, or Nick too - I emailed him the final order list.

Btw, good games with TTH vs GTH tonite. Hope my bittorrent downloads didn't affect you, nor my neighbour leeching my WIRELESS connection and playing GGPO at the same time did

His CONFIRMED order as below:
- OBSF-30 (grey) = 8
- OBSF-24 (grey) = 2
- LB-35 Ball top (grey) = 1

haha fremont !! With all that activities going on, we still have pretty decent game going except for the frequent rage quittttt !!! hahaah

yes rawfish, good games with your GTH and also CV. GTH is scary .. makes plenty of damages while maintaining high stamina. I think capcom should change 1 of his winning quote "something.... they call me king" to "something ... they call me GOD !!!"

I think the person holding the record for most consecutive wins as approved by...TwinGalaxies Ithink, was from the UK.

Saw vids.  He didn't seem very good, at least.

The actual longest record is Japan of course, numba 1 being Bison (Dictator) last I checked.
