| Interesting Joystick in the TVGames Ms. Pac Collection |

| MPS:
I'd be VERY cautious about buying one of these things. Jakks has sunk to a new low in terms of the construction & quality control. I bought one last week only to get it home and find out that I could not move down in Ms. Pac-Man. All the other games worked fine. I returned it for a new one. When I brought that one home, the joystick was much stiffer & Ms. Pac-Man worked fine. However, there must have been a bad pot in the joystick because I could not turn the car at all in Pole Position. I'm on my third unit now. So far, so good. |

But Xybots uses two switches for left or right turn. Not a pot. |

Analog inputs can be mapped to digital ones in MAME... |
