someone is.. but they don't include the stick itself.
Yeah, I was going to buy one from those guys until I realized that it was a joystick restoration kit and not the whole joystick.
do you need one? or just upgrading an old one to a new one.
Actually, neither. The story is this: While I was all hepped up on making arcade control panels, my boss at my old job said that if I ever saw a Defender control that I should let him know 'cause he wants it. So I made him one, but I still haven't given it to him yet. My boss at my new job mentioned that the one arcade game that he was really into was Defender (what's with these old guys?). So I'm not planning to build him a joystick yet, but I'm sort of wondering what I would do if he ended up wanting one.
I have one for sale... I haven't spent the time to put it on b/s/t forum yet. But if your interested let me know. Its used but should play well... (and I think it needs a e-clip)
Very interesting. I don't need one now, but I will keep it in mind if it comes up.
Partly, I'm just curious. Somebody aught to be making. I would think there would be a market for them. (Maybe not).
They are $59 complete at www.arcadeshop.com.
I think I remember seeing them somewhere for $45 complete at one point though.
That's a lot of cash, but that's great if they have them! I couldn't seem to find them on the site, though. Do you see it there now?
Thanks guys.

By the way, I hated that game for a while, but now I'm starting to get into a rhythm and it's really cool. It's really hard, but then after playing it awhile, there seems to be a mental transformation that gives the game a very smooth flow.
