I'll second the Tornado, it has a tiny under the panel footprint. What games use two spinners? -S |

--- Quote from: krick on May 06, 2004, 10:46:32 am ---Are there any games that can utilize 4 spinners at once? --- End quote --- Here's a list of spinner games with more than 3 spinners: http://jstookey.com/arcade/sortinfo/index.php?num_switches=2&do_search=1&switch0=control&operator0=%3D&switchvalue0=dial&boolean0=AND&switch1=players&operator1=%3E&switchvalue1=3 Some of the games listed shouldn't be listed. At least one of them uses optical rotary joysticks (TouchDown Fever). Most of the ones that work are driving games (Sprint 4, Sprint 8, Demolition Derby, Car Polo). There are also a few paddle games. A spinner is a very decent replacement for a paddle controller (but it's not perfect): http://jstookey.com/arcade/sortinfo/index.php?num_switches=2&do_search=1&switch0=players&operator0=%3E&switchvalue0=3&boolean0=AND&switch1=control&operator1=%3D&switchvalue1=paddle Warlords is absolutely amazing with 4 players. There are some other games that use 3 spinners (Super Sprint, Hot Rod, Super Off-Road). |

Ok, if I assume that Happ trackballs are the best, what should I be aware of in the way of mounting? My control panel is 3/4 MDF and I do not intend to cover it with plexi/lexan. I plan to use PartsExpress black textured vinyl... http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=260-018 ...I bought 4 rolls a while back when it was on sale. I have a plunge router if necessary for the installation. |
