What's Up With Bullet Hell?

I'm trying to picture what you mean by mechanical.

Are you referring to the clickiness of it?
Or how much strength it takes to move the stick around, the "throw"?

It's hard to describe... but when I'm playing, sometimes I can feel the mechanics of the thing.  When I"m playing a game really fast, I can't feel it so much, but when I'm trying to make slow movements, then it feels "sticky".  It's most noticeable when I'm just navigating the front end.  Also, when I'm playing a game that doesn't require a lot of fast direction changes, like Donkey Kong, or even older shmups like Xevious.

It may just be that I need to lube the joystick... but I'm not sure if that's a good thing.

I'd like the pressure required to go from dead center to any extreme to be constant... regardless of the speed I'm moving.

I may be asking for too much. :)

Totally know what you mean with that mechanical feeling. I find the U360 sticky too, even after lube.  I love the many functions but absolutely hate the way it doesn't go back to dead centre...  I wouldn't buy another thats for sure.

It sounds to me a bit like maybe your stick is grinding a little?

Los Abrazos Rotos:

Its just the way that stick is designed I think - it doesn't feel like its grinding.  Its just personal preference, sticks that dont centre are not cool
