What is this joystick for?

Craig:

I see these lone joysticks of heaps of cabs out there and I can't figure out what it is for. I see it as usless but I guess it can't be.
Many cabs have them; please tell me what it's for.

Thanks!

That is the uber sexy Ms. Pac-Man/Galaga 4-way joystick.
The joystick can only activate left/right/up/down signals (no diagonals) which is essential in 4 way games

paigeoliver:

That is a 4-way joystick, it can't hit the corners, about 300 different games used them.

Craig:

Ahh thanks guys. It seems pretty far back. You'd almost have to stretch out to use it?

Cheers.

blueoakleyz:

Just depends on the angle you're using the game at
if you're semi-tall like over 5'6" then it's more like your placing your hands directly down on to the control panel and I don't think it'll matter
