My main concern though is that both of these manf seem to have a catalogue of "balltop" joys and I cant really say that's what I'm used to or interested in. I seem to be reading that the quality and build of the Japanese stuff is better so I'm curious if anyone knows of any models made by Sanwa or Seimitsu that are similar in their look and feel to the Happ stuff? I don't know what it is but I just cant see myself playing SFII with one of those round balltop joys at all. It seems very foreign and/or 80's to me. I'm sure for a little Frogger or something I could deal but for many diff games I don't know about these.

Head over to LizardLick.com. There are bat style tops that can be put in place of the ball top of the Sanwa and Seimitsu sticks. Chad, the owner is a great guy to deal with.
TTFN :cheers:

Hah, check out LizardLick's joystick grease :P:

Same Mil-Spec as the Shin-Etsu G-40M shown in the Sanwa catalog. This is a white, silicone-based grease, great for lubing up your joysticks. 150gm tube.

Or so you say. I've yet to meet the person who can beat me consistently on SFII, or even a fair percentage of the time (and I've played a lot of different people since '91, especially during its heyday from '91 to '94 or so at Spaceport in Bangor). I'm sure that tournament-level players could beat me, but it's going to take more than what you describe as a "decent player" before I'll get "torn up", (lol). I expect from your post that you consider yourself to be a "decent player". If you're ever in Maine, stop by—I have a machine right here.
Nothing pleases me more in a game of SFII than to see the opponent using the weaker attacks. That gives me a larger margin for error, because when they do connect, it doesn't do as much damage.
Edit: In the previous post I meant CPS-1 hardware, not CPS-2. The SFII's that I prefer are World Warrior and Champion Edition.
