Ouch, if only I had waited a couple weeks to order my Tornado (I ordered on the 15th) and I just received UPS ship notification today :\ )

Any chance my order shipping today will be of the new batch with the new board and spinner set screws, etc?

My My My....   Christian AKA Slick Stick.... You seem to feel awfully threatened by Randy T's product.

In fact so much so that you make a huge price reduction in yours......  Users of your product should be asking themselves a couple of things here:

1) If you can reduce the price of your spinner now, why couldn't you have done it before. Some of the pepole who already bought from you, are probably feeling quite ripped off at the moment.

2) Do they really want to buy from a company that insults its competitors in a public forum the way that you have here.

Randy T on the other hand quite rightly defends himself with accurate technical comment. What do you come back with.... more insults and ignoring his technical points.

Sorry matey! but you've done yourself no favours here by insulting your competitors.  I know where my money will go, and it's not in your direction.

Best Regards,
Julian (Fozzy The Bear)

I have a feeling they are both going to regret posing this here.  It is VERY evident that there is not that big of a market for spinners so loosing half your target demographics can hurt the pocketbook. 

Please flush the thread and let the products speak for themselves ... the designers are having a rough time doing it for themself.

In terms of design is it not likely that all spinners are going to share common characteristics so mud slinging back and forth seems a pointless exercise.

Its perfectly rational for competitors to point out advantages between competing products.

The overall basis for the purchase of a 'mame' spinner is going to be all round compatibility unless you are buying it for a particular game. The only apparent way to have a perfect emulated experience would be to have several spinners of different resolutions for different types of games.

Mainly people's choice should come down to nothing more but value and function. Semantics and personalities really ought to be taken out of the equation. Its completely irrelevant where my money is concerned. No disrespect to SS or GGG but I don't care what kind of people you are or who has the moral high ground at any particular moment, I would buy the product that offers the best quality balanced by a competetive price.

I think its all getting a little bit personal and off topic. The floor should be given over to a straight unbiased comparison between the two products to help BYOAC users make a balanced choice about which way to go.

As it seems there are few people who have actually used both products its strange for so many people to have an opinion. In my experience Spinners along with other controls are something you really need to use, play games with and get a feel for before you can make any judgement regardless of how many whistles, bells or teeth it may have.

Perhaps people should take a step back and just let the orders do the talking.

I for one will be far more interested in posts from people who are using the spinners than in squabbling about whose got the biggest........er........equipment so to speak.

Ignorance seems to be in abundance here. You are saying because I have offered a sale on the Tornado spinner that previous customers would feel ripped off? Product sales happen everyday in many retail establishments all across the world and their sole purpose IS to bring in more customers or compete with a competitor
