1. Where I can get some decently-priced arcade parts in Australia (near Brisbane if I can't buy online), and
2. What kind of PCB I should get?

the answer to #2 lies here:

Very good idea, Master. Apparently they're easy to set up as well (no soldering ftw :D), so I'll check it out.

Right, my trusty Hori as completely sh*t itself. Playing MvC3 today, hitting fwd ended up triggering .A . So screw that. *sweatdrop
I'm definitely going for the PS360 PCB, since if I ever get to tournament play, I won't have to worry about "O NOES MY STICK DON'T WORK WIF DA PS3 D:".

I'm ordering from In2Amusements, since they've delivered (and quite well) before. Here's what I'm probably getting:
12 Sanwa OSBF-30 Buttons ($2.95 each)
I2A Controller Shell ($29.95)
PS360 PCB w/ USB cable ($63.95)
24 wires w/ .110 connectors ($0.45 each)
JLF Harness ($3.95)

That totals to $144.05. I'd say that's alright considering what I'm getting.
My joystick that I've left over is a Sanwa JLF with an octo-gate.

Sound good to anyone else?
