which 4-way? Super/Reunion/Ultimate

(1/6) > >>

ringram:
I've asked this question in the hardware forum, but not much traffic there...

I'm building a 2 player panel, and am using the Happ Super's for the main sticks. I am also installing a dedicated 2-way stick. I was originally going with a super in 4-way mode, but am thinking it may not be the best. My other considerations are the pacman reunion stick as well as the ultimate 4-way.

What are your suggestions/comments? Please, no Wico/Nintendo arguments, and no 'broken' definitions.

Jeff AMN:
I wouldn't ever use a Happs Ultimate for anything. If you can use a Reunion, that's a great stick.

GAtekwriter:
Jeff,

What would you recommend for someone wanting to avoid having to reconfigure two 4/8 way joysticks manually?

Thanks,

Jim

Isn't the reunion stick a modified super? If so, can I make/modify the restrictor plate to make the super into a reunion stick? I want to keep the sticks looking the same or simlar on the panel.

Tiger-Heli:
I would avoid the Supers or Ultimates.

Not sure if the Reunion was what Hanaho uses for their 4-way stick, but if so I didn't like it.

Personally, I like short-throw 4-way sticks.  My GGG prodigies work well, or the dedicated Omni-Stick/Euro Stick/Suzo 500.  Mounting can be difficult.  T-Sticks are also likely good options, although I haven't used them personally.

Personally, a good short throw 4-way works fine as a 2-way stick as well, but that's my opinion.
