Title: Joystick plan: support or oppose
Post by: Jefferson on November 18, 2009, 03:10:19 pm
Let me first apologize for starting another joystick thread. I've done a lot of reading though, and here's my plan:
Can I get some yays or nays?

I had 4 iL competition joys on my CP (from 4P TMNT)
-But I want to get nice 4-way support on P1 and P2 (but not sacrifice fighting game playability)
-I dont want to drop huge bucks on 360s
-I wanted switchable from the top, but heard the Mag Stik Plus is a little bogus for fighters.

CONCLUSION
... So I'm OK with 'switchable from down under', leading me to the Sanwa JLW (bat top to match the Competitions at P3 and P4.) I hear good things about them in fighters, even without the octagonal restrictor (which isnt switchable so thats out). Besides, the orig SFII used Competitions (I hear?) and thats a square-y pattern too (like the 4-and-80way switchable Sanwa)

dig?

Also, it looks like I'd need the Sanwa JLW-T for the longer shaft (I cant rout down the wood on my cp and have to bottom mount)

Ultrastik 360s for Player one and two
Sanwa JLWs for Player three and four

These are a perfect match in appearance (same stick, different guts)
