3 joysticks - Need experienced help here
MameMe:
For anyone that followed this small thred I ended up buying a WICO 4-way leaf joystick off eBay for my Pac Man joystick. It was $24.95+7.00 US shipping to Canada.
As for the other 2 joysticks, I think I'll end up buying 2 Happs Supers or Happs Competition controllers. I don't care if these are switchable 4/8 way, as long as the "feel" is good. I guess the Ultimates are garbage from what I've been reading.
By the way, I had bought an X-Arcade single player controller and those things are horrible. The joystick "clangs/chunks" when moved in circular motions. That's my 2 Canadian cents, so roughly 1.5 cents US.
hyiu:
if the 4 way is at the same level as the other sticks, and the buttons are not far away... you can actually use existing buttons for the 4 way games....
but you have to try it to see if you feel comfortable or not...
(that's what I'm going to do and I kinda like it...)
Apollo:
The 2 joysticks on either end are Happs Comps which are great and the stick in the middle is a MsPac/Galag reunion stick also from Happ.
blueoakleyz:
this is exactly what I"m going to do for my PS2 cab, but I'm going to have the Ms. Pac-Man 4-way attached to both P1 and P2 (cuz namco Museum is funky, if you have 2 controllers plugged in, it forces you to use the second player, but if only one controller plugged in, you gotta share like the original cabinets. I may rethink this though and just hook it up to p1)

I could be wrong but I don't think you can do this without some kind of of inline resister.
