| Happ Ms Pac VS Ultimarc J-Stik Balltop |
| (1/3) > >> |
| MameJunkie:
I'm building a Ms Pacman cocktail cab and want a 4-way balltop joy. I was going to order the Happs Ms Pacman $20 but when I was ordering the encoder, I saw the J-Stik balltop (4/8 way $15). Question is how does the J-Stik feel in the 4-way mode. If its just as good, it seems like its a better deal. Its cheaper and I can actually turn in into a 8-way. |

i'm also wondering if the j-stick would be good for a galaxian reproduction machine. is there better alternative or should i try and get a original 2 way? |

I've not played with the J-Stick, but you might also want to consider the T-Stick Plus balltop. The action is much stiffer and the range of motion is much smaller, but you get a good positive 4 or 8-way feel, and it's switchable from above the CP. |

So it ends up being $36-38. I don't get why he doesn't just sell a T-Stik Plus balltop version without having to get the normal version with a balltop shaft extra. Probably is a good reason but as of now, I dont have to budget to spend $72-76 for 2 joysticks. Granted they are some of the nicer joysticks out there. |

I'm in the same boat.... I'd like to go with a couple of T-Stick Plus with Ball Top for a couple of classic bartops I'm building but have hesitated based on the total price and then having (2) useless stick parts to boot. |
