Ms Pacman Tornado Terry (now w/pics)
DeLuSioNal29:
Agreed. This is a good stick with micro switches. But Groovygamegear makes a Pac Pro which is leaf based. Just double-check that you get the correct version for metal or wood panels.

Has anyone used the stick for an application like this and, if so, what are your impressions? I'm looking for real-use impressions with games like Jr.Pac and Pac Man Collection, etc.

This thread started almost eight years ago. RandyT at groovygamegear.com has made better 4-ways since then. Have a look.

Which joystick is the best joystick for playing ms.pac-man for hours and which one for best quickest response?
Is this the PacPro the best Ms. Pac-Man joystick on the market?
PacPro Joystick from Groovy

How does this joystick compare to Tornado Terry's custom joystick?

Is the PacPro the same level as the Tornado Terry or better? and why?
What about, Namco Reunion from TwistedQuarter

Is the spring in these very stiff? I curently use a happ super as my 4-way and the only thing I dont like about it is that it isnt as stiff as the joysticks in the pacman machines at the arcade.

You're experiencing the difference between the rubber grommet the original used and just springs in these newer sticks.
I was not a fan of the Tornado Terry version.

I have played it on the Reunion machine with the spring, it has a different feel than the original with the grommet, but it is also very stiff. The happ super and Ms. Pacman reunion have the same base but I think the reunion stick has a stiffer spring.
What didnt you like about the Tornado Terry stick?
