Title: Question: Satan Hollow Joystick
Post by: D_Harris on November 10, 2009, 09:46:59 pm

Can someone elaborate on what options are available for a Satan's Hollow joystick.

I need one and was wondering if any other games used the same joystick base as the one for this game.

The handles are being reproduced, so that is not a problem.

Thanks a lot.

Tron, Gorf, Zaxxon, Xenophobe, DOT , anything that you can use it for. Maybe Scramble in my case and Berzerk.

I added a Satan's Hollow shell to my Happ triggerstick: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=96614.msg1027385#msg1027385 (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=96614.msg1027385#msg1027385)

Yep a Xenophobe would be close, but the Satan's Hollow joystick has a pretty distinct feel in that it only goes in the horizontal direction.  I used a Xenophobe for a while but ended up picking up an original SH joystick on eBay and those nice repro handles.  I guess it depends on how good your muscle memory is and if you are picky (like me) or not.    :)

I've been searching for a Satan's Hollow joystick base since the beginning of the year with no luck yet.

I play SH with Buttons, somehow I prefer Buttons L/R instead of any joysticks. Even Galaga, Galaxian SI etc... anygame that is L/R only, I play it with Buttons.

I only play games with the original controllers or something close.
