That arcade stick is badass I wish I could do custom work like that, but it is killing me why Link is on it when its for xbox/ps3/PC? and not someone who has games on those systems?

The stick has actually a long and interesting history :D

The stick was fully modded by my good friend K1tCHTY of shoryuken forums. He's a master professional modder with more than fifty sticks to his name. He was comissioned by someone to build a Wii arcade stick with a Zelda motif and after some back and forth, the idea was for the commissioner tos end HIM a Wii arcade stick pcb.

He started work, modding the original PS2/USB arcade stick and getting it ready for it's new Wii innards, but the commissioner backed out and left my modding friend without the Wii PCB and the case already Zelda-ized. So he offered it to me and since I was his friend, I bought it from him.

but then again things took an interesting turn. For whatever reason, in the process of removing the original PS2 pcb, the whole thing stopped working, so the stick had no current innards. Working his connections, he was able to find a PS3 AND 360 (and PC) tri pcb that would fit in the stick and be able to run on ironically anything BUT the Wii.
