I always use an arcade stick, DOA, SF, Tekken, BB, AH3, GGX, etc... buuut something busted inside my TE stick and I want to take it apart to fix it but I'm afraid I'll fuck it up. Lol.

I have a arcade stick too and it's easy to fix/replace parts on it. Just look up on youtube if you're unsure of what you are doing

Try to find a stick specialist. If you "fuck up" your stick, it can still be modded or repaired.

Yeah, I'll look into it when I have the money. I'm gonna see if I can borrow a buddy's stick today to practice DOA on some more, I can't do it on the pad again. Lol. FoN and Patrick, we should have some matches later today if you're down.
