Title: Dream Arcades Ebay Store?
Post by: JonnyBoy on January 19, 2005, 05:06:24 pm
I was looking around on ebay for some deals on buttons and joysticks and came across Dream Arcades. They have these really nice bundle deals with 14 or so buttons and 2 joysticks. They are only around 20 bucks too. Has anybody ever dealt with them before? What are the joysticks like? Shotty quality? Are they Happs or Betson or just some offbrand company? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Here's a link

Dream Arcades are good guys, I have purchased from them in the past.

Buttons and joys last time i checked were X-Gaming.

As stated in previous threads, if you are not really ian afficianado; you likely wont notice a difference other than the switches are audibly louder. They are not as high quality as HAPPs, but they are inexpensive and will get the job done.

We now only supply X-arcade joysticks with the control sets that include integrated microswitches.
Al l the other sets use EOM Super joysticks. They are identical to the Happ Controls Super stick, except that they use a different brand of Microswitch. The parts are even interchangeable.
Also, I think right now we are shipping the integrated button set with the better quality Super sticks.
