Needs a LOT of room. Not an option for some of us.

In which case a WICO 4-way leaf stick is your 2nd choice.  They're not too difficult to source either... (unless you're looking for 4" Robotron shafts)

Ginsu Victim:

Yes, I am aware of Wicos as an option (which I'd call my first choice, actually).

CrazyKongFan:

Yeah, I'd love a real pac joystick in my MAME cab, but it wouldn't fit either and have buttons next to it. I do have a real Gaplus cab which has a similar joystick. I don't know if his in the auction is 4-way or 8-way or switchable (hopefully it's switchable with the game list he gave...Gaplus would suck with a 4-way) The original Midway stick does play really nice on my Gaplus. I can do alot better with it and the leaf buttons than on my MAME cab next to it with a regular Wico 8-way and micro buttons.

(edit: added "The original Midway stick" to my sentence about it playing nice on my Gaplus, just to add some clarity)

GaryMcT:

You convinced me.  I went ahead and bought the Pac-Man stick.  I can make a separate control panel for it. :)
