Movements feel Jerky.  Is there a way to make it look and feel smooth?  Eg. Arkanoid

No sorry I meant the analogue setting :p
But yeah it should be on the x axis ;)

The spintrak is a 1200 resolution device so try about 40% on arkanoid that should be about right.

Thats what mine is set at and runs nicely.

You can get the game turn counts etc from here to calculate the other games:

Change the sensitivity to 40 or 41% and try that.
