Hmm don't think I've ever even tried playing 720 with an 8-way Happ Super.  Weren't the turns jittery without an analog controller?
davidrfoley:
somewhat, but of course, when building a machine around 200 games, compromises needed to be made. 
wbassett:
Honest question... why compromise even more?  Wouldn't it be better to exclude a game that doesn't play right or have the same feel as the original version and just include another game that does work well with the existing controls?

I say compromise even more because no matter how good the quality of the buttons and sticks are, a multi-purpose cp always compromises game play/layout to some extent.  Why even include something that doesn't work quite like it should?

Dave that wasn't a shot at you or anything, just my thoughts on things.  Hell, I'd even settle for one less game on the list than have a game that doesn't play right.

davidrfoley:
You have to balance costs along with game play.  To support every game, you'd have a two way, four way, 8 way, 49 way and analog stick.  None of them play perfectly, but we felt the 8 way Happ stick was the best compromise for game play and costs.  Remember, we had to build a kit that sold for under $1,000, including hardware, software, controls, and graphics.
