MadCatz announces new Street Fighter X Tekken Controllers

MadCatz announced today that they’re producing another line of fighting themed controllers and arcade sticks in conjunction with the release of Capcom’s Street Fighter X Tekken fighting game.

These aren’t the same fightpads and fightsticks we’ve seen from MadCatz before with just a fresh coat of paint either. The fightpad design has been cut down in size by 15%, and the new V.S. fightstick can be combined with a second stick to provide a more realistic arcade feel. It’ll be interesting to see how that dual stick combo comes together, as it also involves a separate connector kit.

Full information is available in the press release found below:
