Q-Bert 4 way vs. Pac Man 4 way... suggestions
screaming:
Oh man, I came here expecting to read about 4-way head-2-head QBert! Dang...
erictrumpet:
I think an 8-way on diagonal games (Qbert, CongoBongo) is more acceptable than an 8-way on games like PacMan, DonkeyKong, etc.
I seem to be able to play the diagonals okay on an 8 way whereas the 8 way means certain death in the aforementioned 4-way classics.
But if you really want to do it right, get two dedicated 4 ways and mount one diagonally.

daywane:
IMHOP you will have to have eather two 4way's or swap CP's :dunno
Games like Qbert i plan on desk top CP's
I have the parts. just not the MDF or time yet

E-Stick can be rotated 45 degrees from above the panel. 1Up had a thread about it years ago.
However, for Q-bert, generally you can do fine with an 8-way - particularly one with a square or octagon restrictor/actuator (Happ Comp, Omni-Stick, Suzo 500, Prodigy, Euro-Stick, etc.).
Make sure you go into the MAME inputs and map each direction to "Up-Right NOT Up NOT Right" etc.
Zeppo:
What about the Mag-Stik Plus on that page?
Any good?
