Not a lot of promise there. These accessories are far to expensive for any casual gamer. They need a budget line of quality accessories.

Not true. For example, the portable SNES is going to target an older audience, probably 23-30. These are generally people who have jobs with salaries ranging from minimum wage to 100k+, and can easily afford $100 item.

Also, the specialized mouse is targeted at PC users who play MMOs. Pay to play MMOs are usually anywhere from 8-15 bucks per month. That's a ton of money to spend on a single game. Plus MMOs are played by people of all ages, so any good accessory will be worth the money. In addition, the PC gamers already put thousands of dollars into their machines to get the best possible performance, which changes every 3 years or so. I'm sure the cash flow does not stop there.

Your "casual gamer" is most likely not going to purchase any additional accessories anyway since he can budget that money towards the limited edition versions of games as opposed to new accessories. These items will sell

One Point that most people leave out and thats us Disabled Gamers. We need new innovative products that can be easy to use. even if it's on a budget, you save and get it so you can game. And or do the net.

Re: Mad Catz Street Fighter X Tekken FightStick VS

But do the 2-married consoles fit the standard 19” component stereo width?

Bigger than 19” is a deal breaker!

Smaller than 19”, you loose ALL Audiophiles.
