: Hey people. I was going through some old CD back-ups and came acoss this pic I saved alwhile back. I forget who made this or the site I got it from, but this joystick has it all and doesn't take up alot of area. Just thought I'd post it for everyone.

First off, I want to say that this IS an excellent design, with clean lines, neat presentation, good attention to detail. It will work handsomely for the majority of games in certain circumstances. The yoke looks terrific - I'm drooling.
Having said that, I'm not sure what you'd do for games requiring two or more spinners, two or more trackballs, etc. Two- or three-player racing games?
I'd feel awkward using that (admittedly very well-built) spinner so close to the yoke. And I really have my doubts as to how well those mushroom-top joysticks work in the heat of action.
