Joystick Recommendation
Lilwolf:
Comps then.
Supers are better for timepilot, gyruss and any game that you 'swirl' around.
But comps are better for fighters and many others.
You have to decide if you want corners (ie, feel that your going back and down...)
btw, if you play 4way games, you WILL want a swappable one... or an original 4 way. Otherwise you will get better results from your keyboard (really).
I would go (if I didn't have hotswappable control panels) a
TStick Plus and a TStick... Since you probably wont be changing the player 2 to 4 way often.
Bill Mote:
What about restrictor plates? I really wasn't interested in a switchable stick as it *sounds* unreliable and frustrating.

Not half as frustrating as trying to play pac man with a Super.
I don't have a switchable stick yet, but I'm going to get one. Probably a T stick plus, because I like how they look. Probably get the red ball top, too.
Since Oscar doesn't sell his restrictors anymore, I don't know of a source for any. Unless you have access to a machine shop, I guess.

DougHillman:
Ultimarc's T-Stik Plus is anything BUT unreliable and frustrating. Where would you get that idea? Certainly not from the many glowing reviews of the stick here and elsewhere.
Apollo:
I vote Comps, good stick.
