Looks like another joystick to play with.

Really nice feature set and a lot of accessories, too.  This is going to require one hell of a thorough review with all the different options that allow the change of how the joystick feels let alone it's normal features.  Any comments from you on how everything feels with the different options?  It'll be subjective, but still nice to hear one person's opinion.


Any idea when the hard springs are coming in? I think I'd like those.

Oh, and it looks like you have a few link issues to work out, but all the information appears to be there.



destructor:

Heh, small info for not small price :)
Please test it. How long throw? How long throw with optional restrictor plates? How hard spring? ....
It looks as Sanwa. Sanwa had a bit too long throw.


clanggedin:

$59 isn't bad for what this joystick can do. You don't even need an I-pac anymore, but it can be connected to an I-pac if you already have one.

I am very excited about this joystick. What it can do is amazing.

Kremmit:

Very excited about this.  I've been looking for a good balltop analog solution.

Does the analog offer as high a resolution as a standard pot-based analog stick?  And what's it use, hall-effect sensors?  And most importantly, how's the throw and resistance?  Is this gonna feel like a regular, floppy analog stick, a "regular" arcade stick, or a super-short throw stick, ala the Mag-Stik?
