I'm not sure which bit bugs me more; the price of the sticks, or that
Sega's most interesting release in (years?) is a port of a game that was
great on the DC...

To be fair, this is the latest version of the arcade software, which has a
couple of extra Virtuaroids and some revised AI code not in the Dreamcast
release. A medium like Xbox Live is excellent for this sort of release,
where there's really not enough return on the investment to issue the game
on a disk. And the rabid fans will snap up the twin sticks with very
little regret. It's win-win for the hardcore and for Sega, and the general
public doesn't have to know or care about it for it to be profitable.
