One Joystick and two buttons (fire, bomb). Simple game where you and your enemies are mining crystals from asteroids. Two enemy ship types, miners and fighters then there is Sinistar. You make bombs with the crystals and the miners make Sinistar. You use the bombs to kill Sinistar to go to the next level.
The 49-way joystick gives you fine directional and thrust control over your ship. You can play it with an 8 way but it is more difficult because your thrusters are only on and off and only 8 directions instead of 25 (if my calculations are correct).

Uh, and it's like the hardest game ever (for me anyway)...

My wife just didn't understand why I celebrated when I beat the first level on the crappy midway cab that sells in target.

My two cents. (the price of a 49way is worth iot to play Sinistar) Awsome game! :soapbox:
