Amazon has put up a product page for the upcoming Hori Arcade Pro 4 Premium VLX Kuro PS4 and PS3 Fighting Stick, revealing some additional details. If you are interested, you can preorder the PlayStation arcade stick from Amazon with this link.
The product has been officially licensed by both Taito as well as Sony Computer Entertainment America. It is described as a “perfect replica” of the Taito Velix cabinet found in Japanese arcades. Thus, you can expect to have the same colors, finish, parts and event the metal construction. Of course, it will also come with Hori’s trademarked Hayabusa stick and Kuro buttons.
The top panel of the Hori Arcade Pro 4 Premium VLX Kuro Fighting Stick can be easily opened so that you can access the internal parts for maintenance and modifications. Amazon will ship the arcade stick on the 28th of September in the North American region.
The PlayStation 4 has built a strong library so far for fighting games. The notable releases include Guilty Gear Xrd Sign, Injustice: Gods Among Us, Mortal Kombat X and Ultra Street Fighter IV. Not to mention that there are also several big games coming in the future as well, including the highly-anticipated Street Fighter V.
