Before I bought my arcade cabinet...

and before I made my own controller that I just sold...

I used a Vstick to play MAME. As I don't need it now, I am offering it for sale here before trying eBay. If you just want a 2 player, 2 buttons per player controller, the Vstick will do just fine. It's not programmable but it works fine with MAME as MAME can be programmed to use just about any keys. The unit has a keyboard passthrough and is in excellent condition.
You will notice that there are 4 buttons surrounding each joystick but the buttons on opposite sides of a stick are mirrored. This is nice if you want to change your button firing hand from time to time. When not using the second player buttons, the buttons to the left of the 2 player stick can be easily used as player 1 buttons 3 and 4.
I am asking $70 + $20 shipping for the unit to the continental US. I will sell it elsewhere but the shipping cost will be higher.
Feel free to ask any questions about the stick.
