Happ Ms Pac-Man/Galaga Replacement Joysticks 4-way
« on: August 10, 2004, 06:48:38 pm »
I was checking out bob roberts about these sticks and it doesn't appear that there is anything to physically restrict the stick to 4 way. Now I was in wal mart the other day checking out the the Reunion cab and I don't recall there being anything to physically restrict the movement to 4 way, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

So if both the above being true, was there ever any physical restriction on 4 way movement on the original Ms Pac-Man or not?

I have at least 3 of these, and believe me they are physically restricted to 4-way. The movement pattern they have is a diamond and not a circle.

The stick that actually ships in the reunion machine is not the same one Happ's sells, but it is also similarly restricted.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

Ha. I see that now. Maybe I should actually read the page before I post :)
