Lilwolf:
Front line has some weird problems.

Not like a the snk rotaries (those are 12 way).... Frontline only has 8way... so the trouble here is that you couldn't start with them.


I was thinking of making one from hacking a joystick, cutting down the shaft and attaching it to the outside of a circular round hood thingy that spins.  So when it spins, it moves the joystick to the different parts.  The button is the hard part then.

1UP:
I've been seriously considering stepping up to a Pro.

Frobozz:
You know... looking over my Pro, that looks entirely possible.  Only problem might be length of the shaft.  If you're going to try it, I suggest ordering one with a shaft slightly longer than what you're going to mount it to.

By the way, the Frontline 4-Way control is not optical.

They had 5 swithces, up, down, left, right and fire. Much like an 8-way joystick.

There was on on E-Bay recently. see the
What IS this thing? thread
