Re: X-Arcade + Ms Pac-Man Joystick Feedback?

BadMouth:
If you are definitely going with the x-arcade, I'd get a sanwa jlw for the 4 way.
It almost drops in.  

You have to widen out the holes on the mounting plate and trim a little off the sides, but then it will drop right in without modifying anything in the x-arcade.

This will help:

If you are set on a different stick, just compare the measurements of the mounting plate for it against the measurements of the x-arcade stick (available on their website).

Hey bad mouth, do you really like the JLF's better?

Not really.  I was hoping they'd grow on me, but they haven't.
(everyone else seems to love them)
I plan to swap in IL Eurosticks someday.

I do feel like I have more control, but the action is just too light compared to the joysticks on the machines I played as a kid.
It takes something away from the experience. 
Keep in mind that I'm just a casual player who usually pushes the joystick all the way against the restrictor,
not a professional player who makes tiny circles just big enough to trigger the switches. 
I'm sure a fighting game pro would find the light action much better for their style.
Donkbaca:
if you decide to swap them out I'll take the joysticks off your hands with the custom mounting plates :)

Remove the back of the X Arcade and change the joystick to 4 way.

Works great!
