Pedestal Arcade Joystick replacement opinions
« on: November 30, 2023, 03:50:35 pm »
Hi,
Recently I bought a 4 player pedestal arcade cabinet with an IPAC4 off OfferUp. It was orignally pruchased from Game Room Solutions awhile. I am looking to upgrade the Zippy joysticks. I play everything from fighters to schmups. Looking for suggestions on the best replacement sticks that are great for general play across the board, will fit perfectly into the existing Zippy drilled footprint wthout modification, and hopefully will work with the Zippy balltops that came with it (if that's possible).

Any advice/help is very appreciated.
Thanks.

A Seimitsu LS-32 or LS-38 series stick should be a perfect replacement for the Zippyy.

Make sure you choose the right mounting plate -- "SE" (flat) or the "SS" (curved)
