While most of them are using a MagStick you could use a Sanwa JLW.

mgb:
Yeah CC is definately a horizontal game.
As far as I know, the J-Stick is a JLW.
JLWs are about $20 (with ball) at Lizardlick

robertsig:
Can anyone comment on the 4-way action of the J-Stick/Sanwa JLW  vs  the shorter throw sticks like the Mag-Stik?

mgb:
I can't comment on the Mag-stick because I've never used one but the the JLW is a great stick for 4-way (and 8-way for that matter)
I originally bought one for a customer's 60-in-1 and I very quickly bought some for myself.

HanoiBoi:
I've got 2 Mag Stik Plus joysticks and I play Crazy Climber quite often.  I've got no problems with CC, Robotron, even Q-Bert on the diagonals.

I can't compare the Mag Stiks to anything else though as these are the only joysticks that I've had in my cab.  And at no point have I considered replacing them.
