Good info, thanks Paige :) I wonder if you would mind testing a few more analog stick games if you can?...I'd be interested to see how it works in Space Harrier in particular, and After Burner & maybe EPROM...Seems to me like Space Harrier etc. *may* require higher resolution than the 49-way could give (?) Also, what stick is your 49-way? Wico? Can you buy these still? My analog stick kindof blows so I might be looking to switch... |

Never played EPROM with the real deal, but it seemed perfectly fine with this stick. |

For non-technically inclined people out their who are still confused on what a 49-way is I like to call them "fake analog" or "chunky analog". A digital stick has 4 switches and their combinations give you 8 directions right? Well a 49 way is also sorta digital in that their are fixed positions, but each direction has three levels of sensitivity. A real analog sitck has a near infinate level of sensitivity. So 49-ways are the same as an analog stick, just blockier, with fixed positions. Of course it's optical and has nothing to do with pots, I just think it's easier to understand with this analogy. I hope that helps, or it might have made things worse, I dunno. ??? Paige, how about a link to the interface board? |

u_rebel didn't link to it earlier, but I found his 49-way page *very* informative: http://www.urebelscum.speedhost.com/49waySticks.html |
