How necessary are 4 49 way joysticks?

[alexportugal1212]

Hi, i have a 4 players cabinet, i have 2 u360 as additional joysticks for player 1 and 2  and 4 8 way for the rest of the games, was wondering are there any 3-4 players games that use analog/digital/49 ways games out there, just trying to see if its worth getting the other 2 u360 for player 3 and 4, or just stick with the 2 i already have thanks

Nothing's more rousing than a 4-player game of Sinistar.

No ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---, I'm just joking with you. Unless you're planning to play console games, you're fine as is.

Did they ever get this stuff straightened out in MAME to where using 49 way or analog sticks works properly anyway?
(Blitz, NBA Showtime, etc)

do consoles rally require analogs to be emulated, so far i have played with 8 ways no prob, but again i want to know if its worth it

In mame .180 theres is now the switch between 8 way and 49 way, no quite sure if its wotking 100%, since only when passing its when you really use the analog option, does anyone knows for sure?

I wouldn't spend the extra money.

Man, what a terrible thought:

A game like Smash TV, except you need the aiming AND moving accuracy of 49-way sticks, because it's Williams hard.


(To the original poster:  No, there's pretty much nothing that would use 4x 49-ways.)
