Damn what kind of problems does it have. From what I read it is what it is. A $50 home arcarde stick with good button layout, okay parts, and a higher price tag because of SF4 artwork. It's a good basic stick but does not have the same parts or feel as the arcarde machines.
If u want a better stick that won't break the bank then grab a Hori HRAP3. I got one off Amazon for $99 usd ($140 cad after free shipping to Blaine, taxes and exchange). It's an amazing stick, great size, weight and parts. The real deal Sanwa arcade joystick and buttons by Hori. Hard core gamers diss the Hori buttons but the are still great, just not the exact same ones used in the arcade machines. It's really just preference, u can always swap the parts, this will void your warranty though.
The best off the shelf stick seems to be the SF4 tournament edition fight stick. It's very similar to the HRAP3 but uses all Sanwa parts and has the cool SF4 artwork. Good luck finding one of these, they would cost $200 cad if not sold out, expect to pay $300+ online fob one of these. Personally I'd rather get 2 HRAP3s instead. There are also a few special edition HRAP3s that go for $150-200 usd each. They offer different colours, Sanwa buttons, and yes even SF4 artwork. Check them out online.
Oh yeah, if u happened to pre-order the SF4 standard fight stick u can always open it up and swap the parts out. But personally at that expense you are better off with a superior and more comfortable HRAP3.
Good luck!

^Yea, my plan was to buy the standard fight stick, and then buy some sanwa parts off lizardlick. I didn't think that the fight stick would have a few major issues with them though.. stupid madcatz

From what I've read the madcatz SE fightstick is good to get if you plan on modding it (ie. replacing all the components with Sanwa, semitsu parts).
The hori sticks are higher initial quality but once they break a bit harder to mod.

okay here is the lowdown.... bestbuy/futureshop has a feb 19th release date. the source by circuit city (yes there are still a few left) released the game today, all copies are sold out. hmv was also going to sell it today but their shipment was late, maybe check back later. gamestop/ebgames has a feb 18th release date.
last month i pre-ordered online with bestbuy but it probably wont ship until friday and arrive sometime next week. im picking up my new hrap3 joystick on friday and cant go through the weekend without playing sf4. im so hyped up that i went down to gamestop today and preordered it there too. i was told to come back tomorrow morning to pickup my copy
while i was down there i also preordered resident evil 5 
fyi, if anyone is looking for some authentic street fighter swag i have a pair of akuma gamepads for sale. check them out.... http://www.revscene.net/forums/fs-st...r-t564530.html

I'm not sure what location was selling it today but it was one of the two downtown ones... It may have been all of the locations that happen to have stock. Their website says shipping feb 17.
