Happ competition for 4-way games?
(1/1)
AE35:
Hi all.
I know it isn't a 4-way joystick, I just wanted to ask how well
I could expect it to work with 4-way games like Lady Bug and
Pengo etc.?
My wife hates getting stuck in the corners :)
I've read many great reviews of the comp sticks, being great for
allround games.
Now that I think about it, why do some sticks use direct contact
with the micro's(like the competition), and others press on the cobber-thingy that then presses the micro. Which is better for what and why?
Thanks you for your time, again!

Comps are not a good choice for 4-way games because they have a square actuator which makes hitting diagonals very easy.

Yeah they worked terrible for me, even for some 8 way games like Gauntlet. It's generally pretty difficult to move directly up/down/left/right, the stick always seems to want to move to the diagonals unless you are very deliberate and careful.
