New RetroBlast Review: Devastator II Controller from Treyonics

<< < (3/4) > >>

Lilwolf,

Thanks for the well wishes! As to the Devastator II questions:

1. I'll go into the highmount trackball a bit more in the written review (in progress) I liked the feel, and I didn't have any problems with hitting other controls while using it.

2. The unit I reviewed was their standard layout. I don't like the top-fire joystick at all for a primary joystick. Luckily, you're not forced to take that configuration. I'll talk more about the joysticks in the full review.

Good review and video.  To me, the review was quite fair.  You state the design characteristics with your thoughts after that.   I even learned a few things about the product, one of which was that only the top was laminated.  

Pictures are always appreciated as they show alternative designs.  I agree with your opinion of the carriage bolts; my personal CP uses them but I've since eliminated them from my designs.  They are effective but that's about it.

Now where is the joystick review? ;)

Lilwolf:
I personally like the carriage bolts... closer to the real arcades (most seem to have them).

but what I dont' like... I cant find them in black.  The ones I got with my cabinet are like gold... only one control panel has them...

I wish I could have them for each... I just don't like the all black... but these shiney metal dots...
