How is that thing worth $200?

As far as I understand it, any quality fighting stick will run you about the same.

Interesting, but indeed expensive. Not sure I'd get one, but then again, I'm not playing Street Fighter etc. :D

The Hori Fightstick is $150 (http://www.amazon.com/HORI-Soulcalibur-Arcade-Stick-Playstation-3/dp/B006WVR982) and I know there are quite a few decent ones for under $100.  I just don't generally equate Razer with quality.  $200 for it is as absurd as the Madcatz Fightstick SE at $200.
