Help me choose some joysticks...

if you are building a cabinet for a specific type of game, then perhaps you want to go with a more specialized joystick.  however if you are building a "i want to play thousands of games" mame cabinet, then the u360 is your best option.

i have two cabinets, one is a do-it-all mame cab with two u360s, trackball and horizontal monitor, the other cab is for vertical classics only.  it has one 4way stick, 1 button, and a vertical monitor.....it would be stupid to use a u360 in this cabinet because it is designed to play a very specific type of game with a specific control setup.  but for my main mame cabinet, the u360s are amazing.

Yeah, tough call on the fighters as I've never used a 360 and have heard mixed reviews in that dept. It would be cool to demo them first but oh well. If the 360's can be dialed in to work well for fighting games then I probably wouldn't know the difference.  :dunno

Why is that exactly?

Yes why?

The U360, more than any other stick, is the most configurable option available. If you don't like the response of it, you can change the maps in minute detail. It's based on the Sanwa JLW, which is already a great stick for fighting games.
