The American MSRP for the TE FightStick is $150, so the exchange would bring it into the $180 to $190 range. Sounds about right. I talked to the reps from Mad Catz at CES last month and they said the TE Stick will be limited quantities and they expect to be back-ordered and/or very short. Even the regular SFIV FightStick (MSRP = US$90) will be in short supply. That one doesn't use real arcade components.

I tried the TE FightStick and it feels very solid. I wish it had a little more weight and it'll be weird playing on your lap, so it's best if you've got a table to put it on.
