Spinner or 4-way joystick?

There are more horizontal spinner games than what was listed above.

Off the top of my head, I can think of Star Trek, Blasteroids, Cameltry, Omega Race, Major Havoc, Off the Wall and Zwackery.
The driving games run the tally up even higher.

Kev is definately the man of Steele.....That is Kevin Steele over at RetroBlast has done reviews on both of those multi-purpose joysticks that I mentioned..........He's actually done reviews on practically everything 'Arcade' related.....

If you already have your joysticks then none of this matters.

Ahhh I forgot to mention I already have my joysticks, and they are Wico leaf-switch with a button on the top. I'd consider making ONE of them a switchable 4-8way, but then for game like Robotron, it might feel real weird that one joy is clickey (microswitch) and the other leaf-switch style... Or would it matter?? hmmm...

The clicking isn't the big issue.

I don't like the sticks with corners for games like Robotron.

Mabye you could find somebody that would sell you a set of the 4-way restrictors Oscar used to sell.  Then you could use your Wicos.  Or make a modular system...
