sanwa joysticks

muell67:

im looking for different options for joysticks for my candy cab. Ive been looking at the sanwa and noticed they have these http://www.himuragames.com/store_joysticks.php wich I guess are regular joysticks and then they have sanwa flash joysticks. Does anyone know what the difference is? Does anyone have any other recomendations on japanese style joysticks?

grueinthebox:

The flash joysticks don't use microswitches, replacing them with some kind of weird magnetic or optical pickup "thingy" (technical term).  I've never used one (or even seen one in person - obviously), but they're quite expensive, so that means they must be great, right?

The few people I've ever read that have tried them seemed impressed, but I've never read a detailed review of one.

What is the difference in feel between the Sanwa and Seimitsu sticks on that page?

I just picked up a Jaleco sitdown that doesn't have enough space vertically in the CP to mount anything except that style of stick.

I believe the sanwa are tighter than the seimitsu.
If anyone knows where I can get the sanwa flash joystick please let me know. I emailed Himurgames but they dont show it on there website.

You pretty much missed out on the Flash joysticks.
