haha, another cog in the wheels :)

anyone have experience with both p360's AND midway 49-ways?  what can people recomend for fighters?  i am just going by something i read in forums and retroblast.com where it really seems that the p360 is the winner by far for basically the best joysticks, if the 49 way are concidered close then i could either go 4 of them, or save some money doing p1&p2 with 49 ways, and p3&p4 with supers possibly.  i just don't want to waste the $50 for each p360 for the 3 and 4th players that will rarely be used.  anyone have experience with the p360's and the midway 49-ways that can let me know how they feel about the difference in most games?

Thanks alot.

I don't, but I can guarantee what Retroblast said about the P360's was written prior to RandyT's GP-Wiz49 interface.  I'm not saying that the P360's AREN'T better for fighters than the 49-ways, but this was not taken into account by the review.

Perhaps 1Up or Kremmit could comment, since I think they have both used the 49-ways.

I also wanted to clarify my remarks on the Prodigies -  If you move the sticks without a game playing, the throw feels much shorter than what you remember from the arcades, however, you don't notice this much in actual games, and I played several games of PacMan last night and did not once have a miscue that was caused by the stick, something I couldn't say for the arcade game.  I won't be replacing these any time soon.
