Wow, that's really nice Mr. T. I really like my retro Prodigy. Using both could make a pretty cool panel. |

Sorry I'm so late on this one...thanks to everyone for the positive comments. As for a trackball on top of a stick.......there are some engineering challenges that need to go unanswered :D --- Quote from: BLACK KNIGHT on September 04, 2004, 01:53:32 pm ---That is sweet...I think it'll have to go on my Christmas list! You've changed your website since I got my Keywiz last Christmas. Nice new look! --- End quote --- Thanks, the main site is in need of a revamp as well.....might head along similar lines with it, if I ever find the time :-\ --- Quote ---Hey btw, is that blood red t-molding a dark red like on the Mortal Kombat cabinets or is it more a fire engine red? I'm looking for something more like fire engine red to match the red joysticks I wanna get for my Tekken 2 cabinet. --- End quote --- It's a darker red. I've been looking around for a local MK machine to compare it to, but I haven't run across one recently. But in any case, it's probably darker than you are looking for. RandyT |

But if they stand up to hordes of kids they must last forever! |

From a "nuts and bolts" and "general feel" point of view, the only difference between the regular Prodigy and the Firetop Prodigy is a slightly longer throw, and of course the fire button on top. Snaake: If you have ever played a game and wished you had another hand, there's a good chance these will help. And then of course, there are Battlezone, Tron and others where a stick mounted fire-button is a virtual necessity. RandyT |
