Terry sells the joystick with longer handle as a kit.  That is what I used on my control panel.

I used the Super as my dedicated 4 way, it worked okay but I really didn't see too much difference between it and the other 8 way Happ sticks (Competitions I think).  I had the SlikStik blue illuminated handle on it so that drew all of my friends to want to use it.

I upgraded to the reunion stick about a month ago and it has EXACTLY the same base so mounting was EXACTLY the same as the Super.  Also, the SlikStik handle fit exactly the same way (which makes sense because it's the same base on both sticks.

The difference is the restrictor plate.  I think the acuator is exactly the same size.  I held them end to end and couldn't see or feel any difference in the diameter.  This was obviously when I compared the 4 way side vs. the reunion.

I think the price difference between the Super and the Reunion is only about $5 and I highy recommend getting the Reunion.  I do notice a big difference in play because of the restrictor plate.  If you're going with a dedicated 4 way stick don't get the Super.

Does the Reunion have about the same size base to rout out like the super since I would be undermounting the stick.  Is the cutout going to be about te same size?

Another question I have is this.  Say you drill your original 1 1/8" hole right.  Then what is the best way to center the base part of the stick under the hole so you can trace the thing then rout out about 1/4" worth to mount it under?

rdowdy95:
So if I bought this TORNADOTERRYS EXCLUSIVE. HAPP JOYSTICK WITH CNC PLASMA CUT ADAPTOR + HARDWARE FOR YOUR MS PAC MAN. Will that be all I need to buy.  So it comes as one big package? 

Also if you bottom mounted this would I need to install that big metal thing?  That huge metal rectangle looks like a mounting plate?  Would I need to install that part or just use the joystick base routed into the control panel about 1/4" depth?

i know this isnt directly related but i'll sell you my new happ ultimate 4-way for 10 bucks shipped.  This should suite your needs.
