Yep, first looked at SlikStik years ago, but struggled with the price. NorthCoast models look nearly identical. This is really very similar to the model I purchased from Arcades R Fun. 2 Happs 8 ways, 1 4 way, trackball, Asteroids layout, etc. etc., similar in most every way, including price. I finally caved and just got one after I watched SlikStik go away in a sad, almost RAM Controls type of way.
