Is there a place online that sells OEM KOC IIDX buttons?

IamJebus · 04-25-2007, 02:14 PM

I've searched and searched on the forums here and online.

Haven't really had any luck, so I was wondering if you could buy replacement keys for a the KOC controller.

Too much shaving of keys and now they stick MORE than they did before.

If not, anybody have any good replacement options?

I miss playing IIDX

You could cardboard mod it as well or use liquid wrench.

Well, you see, the problem isn't with the keys sticking when you press them down.

It's the grooves in the bottom of the keys themselves (take your KOC apart and look at the bottom corners.) The grooves are what keep the keys from going astray and always going down and not at some weird angle.

I got witty and tried to shave those down, and went to far on my 2 and 6 keys.

I'd really just like to replace the keys if I could. I don't want to have to shell out another 60 bucks for a controller.

Find a cheap as shit american controller, even if you hate american controller they keys should be the same as the jap controller I believe.

Where can you find said cheap as shit american controller? I've been looking around for the last week for a IIDX controller for my girlfriend/doubles and I haven't been able to find a decent price.....

There were the initial pricedrops all around where they fell to about 40 bucks, that's when I bought my first controller... and then some insane clearance, and now after that clearance, some places want as much as $80 for a US Beatmania Bundle.

I can't find a single place that sells the bundle or just an American controller. And every single place online is selling just the game by itself, or they're out of stock (which is expectable) Do you know a place where I can still find a decent deal on an American controller?

The US Beatmania bundle will only run you $30ish at EBGameStop. Also, used, they're $8

Piece of shit?
The US KOC are a hundred times better than the JP KOC POS.

Ask at an EBSTOP and if they have a controller, they're 7.99. and yes, the US controllers are better than JP controllers in their stock configurations.

Yeah, I know that Gamestop has had them on permanent clearance for a while, but I can't find any here... maybe I should try calling up every one of the gamestops/EBs here in town again...

I mean, they don't even have IIDX/Beatmania listed on their website anymore or in their search. I was kinda hoping you guys knew a website, or some place other than eBay to find what I was looking for. Thanks anyways, though...
