Mad Catz to release "Xbox Live Arcade Retro Stick"

EBGames has listed a new joy stick from Mad Catz that really has to be seen to be believed. While very little is known so far, so much so that mad catz doesn't even have it listed on their site, but it certainly does seem interesting for those who missed out on the DOA joy stick.

You can check it out here.

UPDATE: Joystiq is reporting that the price of the new joystiq will be $50 USD and it will include "Several full Live Arcade games".

I don't know about this...

I am pretty 'iffy' about third party products ever since the really big MadCatz Dreamcast controller ruined my Dreamcast. But, it'd be tempting not to purchase this if it actually does exist. Hey, my Dead or Alive 4 Arcade Stick(not bragging, ) isn't perfect anyway.
