Los Angeles, CA August, 2003 -— Nuby® Technology, the manufacturer of the hottest video game and handheld accessories, announces the launch of its new SOULCALIBUR™ II Universal Arcade Stick.

“We at Nuby® are extremely proud to bring such a cool product to market. Working closely with Namco on the design of this product made it easy to create what we believe is the perfect complementary product to SOULCALIBUR™ II ” remarked Paul Chen, Nuby’s President and COO.

The SOULCALIBUR™ II Universal Arcade Stick was designed from the beginning to work on all three major video game consoles; PlayStation®2, Xbox™ and GameCube®. The SOULCALIBUR ™ II Universal Arcade Stick features exceptional ergonomics and breathtaking graphics inspired by the game. This ultra robust arcade stick simulates the awesome experience of playing SOULCALIBUR™ II on the arcade coin-op and brings that experience home to game players everywhere. With added features such as the always important Turbo and Macros programmable functions, demolishing your opponents in style couldn’t be simpler.
