It will feel just like playing with any other square restricted 8-way, except that you won't have all the problems associated with hitting the diagonals because the software will prevent that.

So adding a restrictor doesn't restrict the amount of accessible games?

Why shorten the throw with a circle restrictor?

Chris G:
It's just another personal preference thing - i.e. feel.  If there are other reasons, I've not heard about them...

It's partly personal preference, but there are some functional reasons.
A 90 degree arc from Right to Up requires a shorter amount of movement with the restrictor than without.
This means on games like Robotron and shooters that you don't have to make as big a movement to complete a circular movement at the extreme of travel.

Chris G:
Sounds like a good reason to me... now I really want to try one!  Glad someone who knows what they're talking about is paying attention.  ;)
