Greetings! ;D I have been thinking about it and thought I would treat myself to something, so after having a vote it was decided that I would buy some good arcade parts (its hard to not win in a vote when your the only one voting ;)) So I have figured out what I want but don't know what type, so here is where you guys come in. Please help me decide what type of these items to get. I would like reasons, pros, cons, your opinions, etc. on why these are the best (or really, really good). So here it goes! ;D Control encoder (like an Ipac but whatever is maybe better) Spinner (push-pull and regular) Trackball (how well it mounts and how the edge on top looks matters) 8 way trigger stick (happ 8 way trigger stick is the only type I think so in case I am wrong you can say) Well this is all I can think of right now so I will add to this if I can think of more. What are some good arcade parts in general? ;D |

By themselves they are all kind of useless! Are you sticking them on a cab you already own or are you building a new cab around them? |

I have a miniPAC, I think its a pretty great product personally, albeit a bit confusing to setup at first. Having options can do that to ya! :P |

Encoder - IPac (i have the 4 but the 2 is the same only for 2 players) Spinner - I went with Ultimarc spintrack with flywheel and USB, has worked great. Trackball - I went with dual Happ 3" with transluscent balls. Mounting is very straightforward and they're USB so they're easy to hookup. Sticks - I like the U360's, but for 4or 8 way, I might very well have chosen the Magstick+ over them, knowing now how finicky my U360's have been But I'm no arcade purist either, so there is that. |

And what about this for the trackball? http://www.ultimarc.com/trackball.html Or is the Happ one better? Also what about this for the spinner? http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=86&products_id=268 Or this for a push pull spinner. Or are they worth it? http://www.apachecontrols.com/products.html |
