Using 8 way stick to play 4 way mame games
REBIRTH:
As Rebel explained, you can use an 8-way for a 4-way game, but it isn't that great depending on the game. Some 4 way games work better with an 8 way than others, but a majority of them don't work too well. I vote for the expense of one more 4 way joystick - or - get one that can easily switch from 8 way to 4 way (I've never used one of these, so I am not sure how good they are).
GGKoul:
If you wanted to use a 8 way as a 4 way.
You could either get a 4 way Joystick Restrictor from Oscar controls or better yet. Get a 4/8 way joystick like a T-Slik Plus. Which is what I have and it works great.
That way you dont have to add another 4 way only joystick on your panel.
Apollo:
I thought Oscar had stopped doing restrictors?
Nefesis:
is the happs universal 4-way a good 4-way stick? the book doesn't mention it, but it seems the best choice for 4-way from happs. didn't feel like starting a new thread for this, but will understand if it doesn't get answered. also, i also thought oscar stopped doing restrictor plates. anyone know where i can get some (besides ebay)?
GGKoul:
If you email Oscar directly, he has some inventory of 4ways but I don't think he has a lot of them left. As I just purchased 2.
But he has no mounting plates left. I'm sure if there's enough demand for 4 ways restrictors... maybe he'll do another run.
