New arcade hardware - poll

I think the whole point is to create a 360/270 combo wheel, so people can play all types of racing games without the need to switch panels. I also don't think having 5 buttons would necessarily kill the whole project.
My vote goes for the 270/360 steering wheel.
psychopanda:
I like them all, in order of preference:
Q-bert knocker
Rotary 8-way joy
Yoke controller
Racing wheel
Depending on the price and quality of the product I'd be more likely to buy the top two.
RobotronNut:
if you're going to design a 270/360, why not go all the way, and give it a second axis, like a star wars yoke, which would be lockable when not needed?
now *THAT* would be cool...
yugffuts:
That's been suggested, but that would take a serious engineering effort, I would think. Not to mention it isn't one of the choices. :-)
Can someone explain the interest in the knocker to me? I guess it's cool, but it's not effecting any gameplay at all. At least the other options will make more games playable (or at least, more playable).

"serious engineering effort" is what separates the macho engineers from the girlie-man engineers. ;)
