Gyruss and Time Pilot, the way they were meant to be played
leapinlew:
I disagree with both of you.
People have different degrees of skill. So, your 90% might make the game playable for others. While you may think a game is too easy, I think it makes the game playable. I have fun playing it, and I can assure you that it fits well with my skill level. I'm sure you might be able to play it for hours and be bored - so this hack isn't good for you. I wouldn't even play the game without the spinner control. With Mame, we have to make decisions we were never afforded in the arcade. Do we allow pause, unlimited credits, and save states? Some people feels this ruins the arcade experience.
I love defender and I'm not very good at it. I don't mind controls that are a bit on the complicated side. I prefer time pilot and gyruss with a spinner. Thats all.

Hi - newbie here - been lurking for a while.
Know this is an OLD POST, but Gyruss is one of my favourites.
Lots of arguments about #original# controls from purists.
In my youth (1980's) the version of Gyruss in our Arcade only had the DIAL - and it worked a dream !
I cannot get on with it any other way.
This was back in the UK, before moving to Canada. Perhaps the spec's were different ?
Was looking for a cabinet here on ebay - but they all have the joystick - so thats how I ended up on this site - will have to build myself one !

Got any pics? I've never heard of an arcade version using it.
