title

Hidden within the Rio Ballroom from July 17-19 was the Evolution Championship Series 2009 (EVO). Different game companies were in attendance this year, including Capcom who had a booth showing off Mad Catz's new Limited Edition Tournament FightStick. It sports a white base, as opposed to the half white and black base from the regular Tournament Edition FightStick, an alternate color scheme for the buttons and balltop, new artwork, and a dustwasher that has quarter circle forward patterns, or "hadouken" patterns for some. Aside from that, the FightStick still has the same quality Sanwa Denshi parts as the original Tournament Edition FightStick from Mad Catz.
This limited edition stick will have a short run - only 500 will be available at Comic Con, with 250 for both PS3 and Xbox 360 at $179.99 each. If you didn't manage to snag one at Comic Con, you're probably out of luck and will have to pay at least twice that amount for one on eBay. While at EVO, though, we were able to take some pictures of it so those who didn't manage to get one or go to either EVO or Comic Con can still witness the Limited Edition FightStick's beauty.
