Four 4 way joysticks
« on: February 08, 2004, 11:18:31 pm »
I know Karate Champ uses Four 4 way joysticks.  But I'm wondering what other games use 2 joysticks per player?

As I like to play Karate Champ, and I'm  interested in knowing what other games use this setup.

Thanks

What you need is the those latest joysticks from Ultimarc - T-Stick Plus Mark II or from Groovy Game Gear - Omni Stik Prodigy, that way you can have the best of both worlds and play games like Karate Champ which are all 4-way and also games like Robotron which are all 8-way. You would have one kick ass control panel. ;D

The other thread is only about 2x 4-ways. It doesn't mention Smash TV and Robotron.

I use MamePlus32 and it lets you select all games using for instance 2 joysticks (but all other combo's are possible too). There is a huge list of 2 stick games (more 8-way then 4-way if I remember correctly though)
