We know Hori promised a Real Arcade Pro 3 SA long ago before it eventually got scrapped… But this time they’ve announced a new SA (Sanwa) style arcade stick for the PlayStation 2 console. The SA features all Sanwa parts and models a darker graphite metal plate and blue/gray buttons. Preorders begin March 10th in Japan and the arcade stick will only be available on Hori’s web store. The stick is slated for a release on April 17th for 10,000 Yen (About $97.35 at the time this article was put together). Keep checking for any/all updates regarding this stick! Hopefully it actually comes out this time!

Special thanks to Tekken Central and DUK2000 for spilling the beans on a new hidden boss character in Tekken 6! NANCY MI847J is a GIGANTIC robot boss that shows up right before you fight Azazel.
