Wow! Joystick+Spinner in one!
coasternuts:
First, WOW! almost 3000 posts and you never heard of one of these.
Second, I think RayB wouldn't want the HAPPs. The price of $16 over $45, plus HAPP shipping! Yikes.
Third, man, that's a great deal. I might have to be on the lookout for these now. Thanks RayB!! ;D
RayB:
So they suck as spinners? THey don't look geared, so probably not too good with Arkanoid, but they also do they free spin much? If no, then no good for Tempest. heh
What if we added a weight to it? Hmmm
See I was thinkig this is a great way to add a spinner to aCP that has no space for one...

From what I've read, actually, you have it wrong-way round.
Very little free spin, so bad for tempest, but probably sub-par but useable for Arkanoid.
Probably not what you wanted to hear, though.

Agree with Tiger-Heli. For feel, it should feel like the joystick you most likely have while rotating it as most sticks should rotate.
I'm doing something similar with my P360 using the Willy Wonka hack. Arkanoid would play fine, Tempest wouldn't. Suprisinly I like it the most for Discs of Tron. I haven't played the real one in years, so I don't have that ingrained into memory, but the way I play it on my machine feels really natural and I shattered my top score the fist time I played it.

Don't feel too bad about missing that auction. Amusement911 is not an ideal seller to buy from on EBAY.
