Ideas on a homemade 4 way restictor
Agent Davis:
For the millionth time,
It is not about circuitry that anyone cares about. It is about the FEEL. If you block the diagonals electronically the stick still feels like an 8-way. Trust me, there's a big difference.
1UP:
Actually, it's not even just the feel, it's the performance.
Lilwolf:
btw, you can already do this in mame software wise.
you can make it up, not left not right.... left not up not down.
helps, helps games that do wierd things on diagonals (frogger can be bad... extra jumps).... but still sucks.

1. Can restrictor plates be used with the Happ 360s? If the 360s can be purchased for $25, I'm thinking of using them for all of my joysticks (just to have common parts).
2. What is an ideal joystick setup? I like 1UPs two joystick panel (nice job), and I want a fighting panel, and I'll probably make a 4way joystick panel.
3. Is it easy enough to change a J-Stik from PacMan mode to QBert mode somehow, or am I better off putting two J-Stiks on my CP (one for PacMan and one for QBert)?

WOW, this wins the "resurection of an ancient thread" award! Impressive!
