Best Joystick for Barcade
GoYouSalukis:
Hey guys,
What's your opinion on the best joystick for a vertical barcade intended for older games like 1942 and DK?
I have two servo-sticks in my fullsize cab and I am pretty happy with them, but was thinking about the U360 since I can also use it to connect my buttons to it. It is pretty deep though(2" top of plate to bottom of shaft), so that is a concern.
Thanks,
Justin

U360 all the way.

Haven't used a Servostik, but if are going to be alternating between 8-way and 4-way games, having something that can automatically switch might be handy.
The 360, while a nice joystick, is a royal PITA to switch out restrictor plates.

The servo stick is basically a JLW with a square rotating plate and motor. Got a pair in a cocktail cab and love em. Since OP has servos already. I used a pair of magstik+'s http://www.ultimarc.com/JShopServer/section.php?xSec=6 with balltops in my multiwilliams cab and love those too. They do have a much shorter throw than the servos have. It's a different stik with a different feel. Some hate and some love it. Been loving me some 1944 the past couple weeks.
good day.

The idea of the U360 is to not change restrictors. The software maps fix that.
