The conversion kits used the existing control panels from a tempest,space deul ect... cabinet which used a typical spinner and then there was the much rarer dedicated major havok cabinet that used that green roller controller which was basically a spinner mounted on its side. I could be wrong but I don't see where there would be a need for a joystick. Mmmmm... roller controller drool :-*

The original roller was actually probably closer to a single axis trackball, but a sideways spinner is a good description, too. :)

In my books, 49 way is basically the same as a "course analog stick". And Hall Effect sticks are just analog sticks with a different type of POT. *shrug*

That snap stick was used in baseball games, too. For many of these games, the batter's snap stick was mounted raised and sideways like a right handed batter's bat.

That reminds me of that Sega golf game where you had a spring loaded golf club on the control panel.

I recently told somebody that that would be one control panel that I definetly DIDN'T want to make...
A week later, I put in a bid on Ebay for $0.01 for a baseball panel and won... Oops!
