You accumulate points on Twitch when you watch live streams. If we accumulate enough points we can make Gillaxian drink until he throws up. It adds another dimension to the event.
I realize that this is an old one (the standard red banner of shame for my posting here- this is what I get for searching before just asking
) but I got a belly laugh out of Mike A and Vigo as usual, and of course Opt's opinion is always welcome, and then even more fun that I see some obnoxious jackass was SO bad that even his original posts have been nuked, so who could resist really, but I digress-
As regards the joysticks for a Multi-Williams cabinet here...
Can anyone comment on what was (originally) in the real Multi-Williams cabs in the wild?
And/or has anyone come to a (ahem, best?- rrrr...) compromise for something that could play Defender/Stargate, Joust and Robotron reasonably in the same cabinet?
I DO really enjoy playing all of the aforementioned games on my scratch Multi-Williams, and as I believe I suck equally at all of them, is there a good stick choice to accomodate?
Bear in mind that I am functioning in a vacuum out here, and in addition to limited room for cabinets in the ArcadeLoft (the two remaining spots held for a vector cab and it's multi-panel swap-mate raster twin...) there is an equal chance of me acquiring a real version of any of these games and that of 50 rabid rainbow-furred monkeys flying out of ---my bottom---, SO...
If the original Robotron sticks had round restrictors, does anyone even make that anymore (like maybe those Wico repros at arcadeshop?) or is it left to one to get out the dremel and make it happen?
Any experience on whether those repro Wicos really suck for Defender/Stargate and Joust?
Currently there are Mag-Stik Plus sticks in my cab (which are, however great for my other faves, nearly unusable for Robotron sadly.)
My only experience with round restrictor sticks is U360s and although I think they are really good for games like Gyruss and EPROM, I'm not sure they are best for this application.
I feel like I'm getting close to having a few cabinets that I can just play and not be re-engineering every few months so any real experience/wisdom is appreciated!
