Anything new you put in your cabinet will play better than anything you ever encountered out in the wild.

...besides, you're all wrong: the best joystick ever came off a Namco Plug and play ($20).  ;D

 I think you are trolling actually...

 Its been too long since Ive used a 4 way stick..  but Id probably say that Id prefer the Original bally Pacman/Ms Pacman sticks.

 These were very large metal bases, and the bottoms are nearly identical to the Tron trigger stick.   Rubber grommets, short balltop handles, very smooth and precise action..  and quite robust in durability.

 Even though they will eventually wear out...  they usually held up much longer and better than a wico version.

The bally sticks also had replaceable plastic inserts..  however,  not sure if you can still find them available these days.

Cheers all...  wow a lot of opinions here :)  I guess it was quite a subjective question.

The zippyy sounds good, and as it's cheap it might be worth a go.  I'm also toying with getting a dominux8 and bottom mounting it to shorten the shaft, and add in the 4-way restrictor plate.  I love the feel of the rubber grommet so this could be worth a try.
adder:
Jimbo i recommend listening to Jimmer, and buying one of his JLF clones with custom restrictor.
it's only a few pounds more than a zippyy, and miles better.
