Adding a fire button to top of Happ Super Joy
Frostillicus:
You can buy just the parts to the top fire super joysticks from happs.
Here was my dilema - I had 2 supers from an old project, but wanted them to be trigger sticks. TheHapp Top Fire Button Super Joystick uses the exact same base, all I did was type in the part #'s in the search field.
You need everything the super doesn't use. I think the total only came to about 15$ a joystick for the parts, compared to 30$ for a complete joystick. This would be a lot easier than trying to drill a hole through the super shaft.

another option mentioned once is that the super old school wico atari joysticks had a balltop-esque with mini fire button on top... since wico made both home/arcade sticks this particular shaft is supposed to fit in an arcade joystick base (supposedly)
there's a link/info/pic in an old thread... but if I dig it up for you, we'll be bidding on the same crappy wico atari joysticks =P

I havent looked too hard yet but I'm coming to realize that I need at least one topfire button.. I've got 2 T-sticks, which are similar mechanically to most other joysticks(base mounts under, the shaft goes thru the CP, a nut under the base is what holds it all tight, etc)
Will any of these replacements, like in the picture above, work with T-sticks or are they different sizes? Has anyone doen this to a T?
