I checked out the buttons again today, and took some photos. I think they speak for them selves..


left is probably fake, right is Happ.. ?



Same here. Probably fake to the left, happ to right?



These are the switches which came with these..


I also got two joysticks trough ebay, from a vendor called amusemame.com (different username tho).
They are supposed to be Happ Super, can somebody give me a comparison picture?



These joysticks feel so bad i don't even wanna use them while I wait for new ones.. Kinda gave me a downer on the whole project, made me do other ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- this weekend, just checking them out.

The problem with those sticks? They aren't Sanwa JLWs  ;D

Clickety clack buttons are clickety clack buttons. Who cares what the logo is? They likely come from the same factory that puts whatever name on them you want. The switches are the main factor in determining the feel. I personally hate everything microswitch, but I'm old school. Oh yea...now pull up yer pants, put yer hat on right and GIT OFFA MAH LAWN!!! :P

The problem with the sticks is that they are really loose. The distance it needs to travel before switches are being pushed is too long and the diagonals are really hard to do (small area where both switches are pushed).
Other problem with the sticks are that the switches are not the same as pictured in the ebay advert, and the finish of the product is more like they are refurbished/used than new ones. And when the seller was confronted with this, they told me I could get a refund AND keep the joysticks.
Either thats REALLY good customer service or they trying to cover up some bad buisness by being too nice.

What you guys think?
And do anyone have pics of an actuall Happ Super joystick to compare?

Donkbaca:

Turn the actuator upside down,it could be in 4 way mode. I wouldn't worry about the buttons I think zippy micros is what happ is using now that cherry stopped making switches. That is the same style as a super. Like I said try turning the actuator over. Chances are if you don't like this stick, you won't like supers either
