Voice your opinion... which joystick is best?!?!
danvan:
Hi all...
Thanks to all for helping me get my baby back on her feet. The monitor now has perfect vert hold and the new PC has sound.
Now I have a perfectly operational arcade machine but it still needs fine-tuning. At the moment I have 2 Happ Ultimate joysticks which are good... but are not great. I am experiencing issues particularly with blocking on Street Fighter 2 in the heat of the moment. Can anyone suggest the best joysticks to have GENUINE 8-way arcade experience on a JPAC/MAME setup running a 6 button per player setup?
Thanks in advance!!
Daniel

I think the Ultrastiks are the best due to their flexability. You can map them to work in whatever way you'd like. 4-Way, 8-Way, 4-Way Diag... You also have the different spring options to give you a different levels of stiffness. You can also map up to 8 buttons using the optional wiring harness. I love the thing and will probably incorporate 4 on my next build. They are smooth as silk without the constant clickety click sounds. But that's just my opinion.

Do you have the competition version.
It has the square piece that actuates the switches instead of the round one.
I believe that's what SF's used originally.
But I am NOT an expert in this area by any means.

My personal favorite (by quite a large margin) is the Sanwa JLF joysticks. So tight and precise, I hate having to play fighting games without one now
If you don't like japanese sticks, then upgrade your ultimates to Competitions would be my suggestion.

Ultrastick period. But you can only have 4 per cp ( and get full on the fly functionality )
I need two more in addition. I am looking for the best top fire out there. Maybe a top fire and trigger.
