OMNI-Stik PRODIGY (TM) - New Product Announcement
patrickl:
The new "Retro" stick really looks cool! Exactly what I would want to have on my upcoming retro control panel. Love the choice of a matte balltop. I hope you will also ship to the Netherlands. If you do, I guess that will make these sticks euro sticks too then :P

--- Quote from: patrickl on December 05, 2003, 05:40:33 am ---Why do people insist that the current stick on it is "european". When was there ever a cabinet manufacturer from europe?

cool rant snipped ;)

Wow Randy, it seems I missed a nice rant there ;) (Somehow I lost notification e-mails)
Guess it's just which games you play and maybe during which period even.
I guess Tiger-Heli summed it up really:
--- Quote ---For me, (and many others), this means the Pac-Man series, 1942/1943, Galaga, Galaxian, Frogger, Time-Pilot, Donkey Kong, Gyruss, Tiger-Heli, Top Gunner, Sky Shark, Robotron, Dig Dug, Gun.Smoke, Karate Champ, etc. These were all ball-top games in the arcade's.

See? That wasn't so hard, was it? *giggling*
Well played, Randy. :) This is very very nice. To think, I was days away from ordering a 4-way Ms. Pac/Galaga 20th anniversary stick from Happ. To THINK....
Price shipped? (and be nice... *grin* let's not get all crazy up in here). And it would be at my doorstep by when?
By the way, one other question, how accurate is the throw in 4-way mode compared to an original old-school 4-way?
Oh, and another question that I SHOULD know the answer to:
Did an original upright pac have a slick ball or a textured ball? And what size was the ball??

Bump for a great product!

I agree. I put two of these on the cab I'm working on (will post pics soon) and they are really top notch. I got one Prodigy and one regular Omni-Stik and would highly recommend them.

Thats a GREAT idea. How many 4 way games used 2 players? I have 2 omnics and 2 prodigys and was trying to decide which to put on the cabinet I'm building. I'll do one of each. If I really want to switch the secound one I'll do it from the coin door. That will give me one of each for the next cabinet as well.
