Title: Joystick Recommendation
Post by: Steve Graffeo on May 28, 2002, 07:07:31 am

I have 3 happ ultimate 8-way sticks in my cocktail cab.. im very unhappy with them.  Its very difficult to play games like Ms. Pacman with these. I guess i need 4-ways. I want the arcade feel and without getting stuck in the diagonals..

What is everyone using to accomplish this?

Consider putting on the Oscar restricting plates... They are about the same price as 4way joystick, and you can remove them to play 8way games when you want/need.

In a cocktail table you are really limited to space... so you don't usually have the option for both... thats when I really think the plates are amazing.

And your right.  playing 4way games on a 8way joystick suck.  I would rather play pengo with a keyboard then an 8way
