Suzo 500 fit into an X-Arcade?
« on: August 30, 2006, 10:49:39 am »
Hi everyone

I was wondering if it's possible to mount the Suzo\Euro-Stik in an X-Arcade without too much hassle?

I've gone through the original X-Arcade sticks, Happ Competition, ball top J-Stik and now oval top J-Stiks - none have really felt close to what I was using way back in my arcade gaming days.

going to be ordering a few bits from Ultimarc in the next couple of days so it'd be great if i can get an answer before hand.

thanks

you would have to rout out the bottom a bit, or put a spacer inbetween the joystick and the panel, or just increase the diameter of the existing hole so the head can actually pass through as intended.  Taking apart the joystick isn't nearly as trivial as with an american stick (if you go with either of the first two options), but i think you'd definitely be able to do it if you set your mind to it.  you'll also have to trim off the excess plastic for the alternate screws on the suzo base.
