Happs Perfect 360 vs. Ulitmarc Ultrastik 360
urbecrisch:
Looks like I'm leaning towards the U360's just for the fact that they can be used for 2/4/8/49 and analog games.
Are the U360's plug and play? I know they have software to map out games but do you have to configure each game (over 5000) with the U360 or will some command in Mame take care of that?
Do you use the U360's with or without an encoder since they can hook up additional buttons?
vrf:
U360 doesn't need an encoder for up to 8 buttons. And you can't shift those buttons, either. So yeah, you'd probably need an encoder for admin stuff.
I think I'm going with U360's for my next cab. Love the fact that they can do analog games, too.
Extreme8:
I have 2 of the U360's on order.
It was the true analog ability that sold me on these over the 49-way & GP-wiz49 option. I never really gave the P360's any consideration since they're nothing more than a switchless 8-way stick.
It seems that Andy is having a parts shortage of some sort that is slowing down his assembly of these sticks. I've been waiting over 2 weeks at this point.
I'm looking forward to getting my hands on them and getting my CP reconfigured.

Destructor - I'm not going to search for the post, but I would swear I recall you strongly recommending circle restrictors AND stiffer springs for the U360 in general. Perhaps I misunderstood whatever post that was in, or maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're writing now...
Whatever the case, I really like my U360s, however, IMO the stock version feels awful for any type of game. The throw is way too long and the spring is too light. When I get the money, I plan to buy the optional stuff. Of course, as with all this stuff, it comes down to personal preference!

Clear: U360 with default spring is excellent for all type of games, but is not good for shmups games. Not good knows that my moded P360 is better, far better for shmups tham U360. I have circle and square restrictor otherwise. Additional 2 old Ultimarc springs are too hard, harder than default P360 spring, this is crazy because P360 is very hard stick. Now I wait for new Ultimarc spring for test and I will write something about it on this forum.
For me throw in U360 is very comfortable for play, I feel that I move stick. In T-Stik for example I don't feel it becuase stick don't move almost :D
Default spring is very good for me because I use almost 0 strenght for move stick from one position to next, very comfortable, I can play and play. On P360 my hand is hurt after 1 hour of playing.
Every like something different. I like comfort ;)
