Shape D.:
it depends what one youre using the pac man comes with a 4-way but theres a game on it that uses an 8 way stick. I don't know if it will accept 8 way controls though. the mrs pac is an 8 way but it also has a rotating joy for that racing game who's name I cant think of right now. pole position

For Pole Position, the ball top rotates left/right to turn a POTENTIOMETER inside the case.  There is a return to center spring that keeps it centered.  Playing Pole Position with this knob is actually easier than with a spinner in MAME (In My Humble Opinion).  Anybody hacked that, yet?  If so, what controls did you replace it with on your CP?

Argh!  I was wondering why I couldn't steer the damn thing with the joystick when I tried the unit in the store!  I thought it was defective...
