From Game Watch we learn that Hori will release two new arcade sticks for the PlayStation 3 on the 8th of february, both of them sequels to their two most successful lines of sticks. The Fighting Stick 3 (pictured on the left) is the low-end choice and will have an MSRP of 5,229 yen, while the Real Arcade Pro 3 is the be-all end-all choice, with an MSRP of 8,379 yen.
This news comes as a big surprise, considering there's already a PS3 stick on the horizon: Sega's Virtua Stick High Grade. Now three brand-new sticks for a console with only two upcoming arcade games (Virtua Fighter 5 and Power Smash 3) may be overkill, but don't forget that all of them will be USB, which means you'll be able to use them for MAME and general emulation purposes, without the need for lag-inducing adaptors. Personally, I am sold. The problem now is figuring out which one(s) to pick up.
