Inexpensive joystick question
NoBonus:
So I am going to buy some fairly inexpensive joysticks ($20 per stick limit). I want 8 way, would like a 4/8 way switch, and do not mind microswitches.
Which ones feel the best and perform the best and are solid values and which ones are rip offs.
There are Happs, but most of them are just out of my limit, the Omni-Stik, Wico, and X-Arcade sticks.
Does anyone love or hate any of these? If so, why?

What type of games do you play?
The different sticks are better, or worse, for different games.

You may want to consider Ultimarc as well.

I am looking for a stick-of-all-games. From fighting to pac man, I need a versitile stick.

So, of the four, does everyone use the T-Stick or does the J-stick and Euro-stick do okay? I am hoping for familiarity of play, thus the J and Euro might be bad choices for me. Any thoughts? Additionally, how is the four-way feature of the Ultimarc? Nice or does it suffer from the same issues as the Happ?
