Best mechanically restricted 4-way stick for all-round 4-way gaming?

Pages: (1/6) > >>

Jimbo:

I'm looking for a 4-way stick for my dedicated 4-way panel in my rotating CP project.

I want to play a big variety of 4-way games including Pac Man, Donkey Kong, Frogger, Mikie, Kung Fu Master, Mr Do!, RallyX, Rolling Thunder, Pitfall II, etc. etc.

I have a Pac-Pro from GGG, but it has a very strong spring and requires some effort to move/hold in a direction... strong force back to center.  I'm not sure it's the best joystick for all round 4-way gaming.

Anyone have any suggestions for a good all-round mechanically restricted 4-way stick?  (with red ball-top, perfereably with a short-shaft)

Cheers

Sanwa JLW with the restrictor screwed down in the 4-way position.

It's getting harder to find, but there are a lot of knock-offs out there.
I don't know how the knock-offs compare as I haven't used any of them.

Jimbo,

I've got zippyys with custom restrictors.

But the JLF clone with custom restrictor is better, especially if you want a nice light action.

Pac-Pro all day long. The leaf switches outweigh anything dealing with the spring.
