| MasTequila:
I am putting together a somewhat modular control panel design and I was have a few questions. 1.How many games use 2 joysitcks? 2.Are they trigger joysticks? 3.Are they 4 or 8 way? 4.Are there any 2 or 4 player games that use 2 joysticks per player or do the players take turns on the same set of 2 joysticks? Thanks, ~Mas |

4. Smash TV used 2 8-way Joys per player |

>1.How many games use 2 joysitcks? (Per player, right - i.e. not SF, MK, 1943, etc.) A brief list would be: Robotron Smash TV BattleZone Assault Sarge Vindicators Crazy Climber Karate Champ I'm sure there are tons more, but just off the top of my head. >2.Are they trigger joysticks? Generally only the "Tank" games use triggers. Vindicators is about the worst with a trigger and thumb button on each stick. >3.Are they 4 or 8 way? Karate Champ was dual 4-way. Some of the "Tank" games like Assault were dual 4-way, but I think they will play fine with an 8-way. Many of the "Tank" games like Battlezone were dual 2-way vertical, but they will play fine with an 8-way. All the others were 8-way. >4.Are there any 2 or 4 player games that use 2 joysticks per player >or do the players take turns on the same set of 2 joysticks? Don't know of ANY 4-player dual joystick games. Generally they take turns - exceptions would be Smash TV, Sarge, Vindicators, and maybe some others. . . |

So 8 ways would be fine for most games? Also would it be playable to have regular joysticks and then have a few buttons in the middle for the tank games or is button joysticks the best way to go? |
