u360 Balltop vs Bat?
(1/5) > >>
cadmium:
Are there any appreciable differences between the balltops and bat versions of the Ultimarc 360's? Do they have the same throw, spring tension, etc?

Bonus question, I'm (potentially) replacing a Happ Competition, mounted under 3/4 ply (no plexi). The height is perfect for me. I've heard the 360 is shorter, is it enough of a difference to pay for the longer stick?
retrometro:
My previous cab had a balltop and the new one has a bat.  both were from happ. 

for me, games that should have a ball top but have a bat instead feel weird (pacman, galaga, etc)

but games that should have a bat but have a ball top instead are hard to play (fighting games)
Axe:
Hmmm

I am an "all ball" guy!  Street fighter and Samurai showdown both had ball top sticks out in the small towns i grew up in... (almost no "original" games, just rebuilds) so I am all about ball top... My Tekken Cab has bats, and they are going as soon as i put in my ultimarc order.

I'm a "bat" guy because that's what most games had when I was in my arcade going prime. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't any major differences other than stick shape between the two!

I think the shafts on those are a different length. Check Ultimarc to be sure.
