how to make Happ Ultimate joystick 4-way?
Khoumic:
I'm not sure anyone actually responded to the question "how to make Happ Ultimate joystick 4-way?"
I'm on my second project (first post, since almost all my questions where answered via search), so since I just converted Ultimates from 8-way to 4-way I thought I could answer the question.
First your going to need to buy a couple parts from Happ:
1) 4-way Actuator (2) - Happ code: 95-1307-00
2) 4-way Bracket (2) - Happ code: 95-1314-00
3) Flat Washer (2) - Happ code: 43-0057-00
Now once you replace the old actuator, old bracket, and install the washer you will not get true 4-way feel, but this does make it impossible to accidentally hit diagonals. Actually in my experience its sometimes hard to even hit all the 4-way directions without a little tweaking of the actuator (seems a little small).
So even though this is an old post, I hope this helps any future conversions.

This is your best bet for 4 way especially for speed up pacman, Other wise you'll need to get an original pacman midway stick which you can find but hard to come by. IMO there in no substitute for the original pacman stick (Leaf switch) :banghead:

I own one and it's excellent.

or you can get a 4way restrictor plate or just a diamond shaped whole in the CP
