Hi All:

Just got a spinner and would like to know...

There's a filter in mame that allows you to see only the spinner games! One guy over arcade at home showed me that! ;D

Two of my favourites are:

720 degrees (Sk8 hardcore kick a** game old school spazztic)  ;D

Plump pop (childish brain damaging game)  ;D

I think tron is other game that uses spinner...

Hope this helps!  ;D

Make sure to get the latest CATVER and sort your games accordingly.  Thier is a trackball / spinner Cat.  I know SpyHunter is one, i haven't played any other spinner games lately.  Sorry don't know about the out of range.  It was on the forum the other day though, so do a search.  I believe it was in the software forum no longer than a week ago.

All the 360 degree wheel games can be played with a spinner.  Spy Hunter uses an analog wheel and analog pedal.  A spinner won't be very good with it.

I think Major Havoc used a control that is similar to a spinner for side movement.
