Boy...a month and a half ago I was buying a slikstik...NOW look at me

Player 1 and Player 2 identical, everything below = X2.
1 Happs Ultimate
1 Happs fire-button-topped stick
lots of buttons, including the one on top of the 2nd stick.
Oscar Spinner.
Now, this depends on when Andy releases his USB enabled OptiPac, should be he says in a week or two.....this will mean I can run 2 spinners. Combine that with the button-top sticks and I've got Tron and Ikari warriors type controls without having to spring for the $50 a pop opticals from Happs, which wount' work well as spinners (but will work ok for rotating-stick games). Strategic placement of buttons around the 2nd fire-top stick or spinner will allow for things like extra button presses that aren't TOO bad when one hand is on the spinner and the other is on the stick.
A trackball will be used but right now I'm just thinking about using a compUSA cheapie instead of a dedicated. Cheap? Yeah....but my other options are all $100+...and I doubt I'd use a trackball that much. Crystal castles maybe......Cabal perhaps......but then I'd really need TWO for cabal...ugh.

anyhow, what do you think...reasonable and should get the job done for most games? PS: Someone mentioned that Discs of Tron had a spinner that went up and down too...........I dont recall the spinner doing that.....did it POP up and down ie: into the panel, or did it tilt...??
