Control w/ Authentic Pac-Feel?
TurboC--:
I've been told the Ultimarc T-Stik is extremely rigid, and that for my Pac cab I should put in the Happ Reunion stick. But that is 4-way only, and I was hoping to have a 4/8-way switchable. Are there any 4/8 way switchable sticks that feel right for Pac-man? Has anyone tried the Ultimarc J-stik ball-top? Any other good ball-tops I am missing?
Stingray:
Omnistick Prodigy plays the Pac games fine, but I still prefer a dedicated four way Wico leaf, personally.

Lilwolf:
The pacman sticks had a pretty short throw though. I don't have one, but I used one right after using a wico 4way leaf and could tell the difference then. But someone with a real one might want to comment.
But you might find that a happs 49 way with a ball top stick might be a good solution. Closer then a t-stick and all the other functionality. Then you would have them all... but I don't know if the throw would be way off.

Yes, It rocks. I swapped out both my Happ supers for them.

I've tried out several different 4-way joysticks to try and find the one that I liked best for playing Ms. Pac Man.
These are the joysticks that I've tried in order from which I liked best to which I liked least as a 4-way joystick.
1. Happ P360 wich Oscar 4-way restrictor plate and Wico Ball Top. ( Just as good as the Seimitsu except with optical smoothness.
