Got a gutted driving game.  2 steering wheels, 2 gas pedals (using pots), 6 buttons.  Which is the best encoder to get?

Thanks!

I'm a fan of the Kade, but you'd need to use the mysterious and (apparently) not available Kade+ to interface analog controls.

That actually begs a question, are there any off-the-shelf analog encoders?

I always figured that if I did MAME my racing cab, that I'd use one of these:

That's nice!  Does it have input for a trackball which is the steering wheels?

Well, if I were doing a trackball, then I'd go this route...
