The stage of battle is set!

Players eagerly awaiting Ultra Street Fighter IV’s arrival on PlayStation 4 can now let out the breath they’ve been holding for months, because it’s now available on the PlayStation Network.

Featuring upgraded graphics, all currently available downloadable content, and even the removal of lag issues that plagued the PlayStation 3 release, this port might just be the best thing to tide fans over until the launch of Street Fighter V.

And those of you with older arcade sticks needn’t fear, because the game includes support for those peripherals as well, though some extra steps are necessary.

New Seimitsu Joystick Lever Being Sold Exclusively Through Arcade Shock

LS-38-01_622_crop

The joystick lever is one of the most important parts of an arcade stick. The way a lever feels and moves can have a large impact on a player’s performance.

For years now, those players who have felt that the standard Sanwa JLF was too loose would gravitate towards Seimitsu’s LS-32 series of levers due to its tighter spring and smaller engage distance. Now, Seimitsu is releasing a new lever that has an even tighter feel – the LS-38-01-SC.

Coming exclusively to Arcade Shock, the LS-38-01-SC is based on the classic LS-32-01 form factor, but features a more rigid spring. This should be a boon for players looking for a lever that offers a tighter, more accurate feel than the standard Sanwa JLF or Hori Hayabusa commonly seen on today’s retail arcade sticks.

The LS-38-01-SC is currently available for $21.95 through Arcade Shock’s online store. Please note that they have a limited stock at the moment, so anyone interested in picking one of these up should do so soon.
