Building My First Controls
<< < (4/8) > >>
Ginsu Victim:
I mean, if there's one part you don't want to go cheap on, it's the joystick. I bought Happ Universals first, and I quickly got rid of them within a month of installing them. Once I purchased the U360s, I no longer had any complaints.
Harbringer:
If I do go the cheaper route and buy regular joysticks to be used in conjunction with a gamepad hack, what would be comparable in performance to the u360? I dont mean in terms of connectivity but more in joystick feel and movement. I was angling towards the happ competition joystick. What are your thoughts on happ joysticks?

To be honest im not sure how many games I will be playing that require the 4-way joy, but just in case, would the happ super perform similar to the happ competition? Being that they are the same price should I just get the supers?

Thanks again,

Ginsu Victim:
Out of supers vs comps, go for the comps. If you don't think you'll be playing classics like Pac-man, Donkey Kong, Dig-Dug, etc, then you probably don't need 4-way.
Harbringer:
The wiring is the last thing I need to consider befoer moving onto the build. As I mentioned before I have seen the wiring done with cat5  ethernet cable. Would this be an ok way to wire? What kind of wire do you guys use?

 :dizzy:  No 4-way games???  But those are the best ones!!! 

I use whatever wire I have laying around - usually 22 gauge with .187 quick disconnects.   :cheers:
