Yes. 8-way joystick works just like the sidewinder. Moving up/left on an 8-way stick makes contact with up and left... just like sidewinder.

: i had one question, i was hoping you guys could help mewith. since the sidewinder is only a 4-way joysick, that infers diagnol movement by tripping two adjacent buttons (example: up + right = top right corner movement), can i buy an 8-way joystick, and still use it w/ the sidewinder, even though sidewinder only uses 4-way movement?

: how would i hook up the sidewinder to an 8-way controller?

: BTW, i am planning on using the 8-way ultimate joystick from happ controls, that is NOT 4 to 8-way adjustable.

: boy, that has bothering me forever!

: thanks,
: kenny
