Playing spinner games on trackball - how is it?
megashock5:
I'm trying to decide whether to spend the time/money to add a spinner to my CP. As far as spinner games go, I'd probably only play the odd game of Tempest. So how bad is it playing them with the trackball?
Spinners are just so darned expensive.

I guess you don't look at replies on your post. I'm refering tothis.

If this comes, my spinners are $18.00 shipped, you provide the TOP for it.
LeedsFan:
I haven't tried, but I'd have thought that it would be a bit poo. How are you hooking up your trackball?
megashock5:
Nasty,
I did check that post, multiple times. I just got the impression from your response that you still weren't sure if you were actually getting these, or when.
Sorry if I misunderstood. I'm still *very* interested so please let me know if it pans out. I'm just getting close to being done with my panel and still hadn't found anything yet.
Keep me in mind. Thanks!
(also, I'll be using a miniPac. I'm assuming it will support a spinner and trackball, but I've never hooked anything up like this before so...)
Stingray:
Playing spinner games with a trackball is acceptable. However if there's even one spinner game that you're really hooked on (with me it's Tempest) then the expense for a spinner is completely justified. I love paying Tempest with a reall spinner, nothing else does it for me.
