Custom Xbox 360 Arcade Stick

Author: SmellyGeekBoy | Date: April 27, 2008

Xbox 360 Arcade Stick

Check out this hella cool DIY Xbox 360 Arcade Stick. It was hand-crafted by Flickr user ShaolinDrunkard, and other than that, I don’t really know a lot about it. Oh, except the fact that it’s made from a gutted 360 controller, and that it comes in this hefty hand-made oak box. He also made this impressive Soul Calibur IV effort, and this totally sweet Bubble Bobble one.

Oh yes, Bubble Bobble. The man has style.

Have I missed something? Surely you don’t need more than that do you?

Having been too young to experience proper 8/16-bit arcades, I wouldn’t have thought you ever needed more than what’s pictured?

Remember that most XBLA games need two sticks, Robotron-style. This will work with the likes of Frogger, Pac-Man, and Dig Dug though, basically anything that just uses the D-Pad.
