In Reply to: Everyone uses different guts... but what "FEELS" best. posted by Jim on September 03, 1999 at 23:50:33:
I found my HotRod playing Gyruss to be so close to
the feel of my real Gyruss as to make essentially
no difference. Granted, the stick is a different
stick, so that feel is slightly different, but the
response was excellent. That is a keyboard hack
of course (albeit with a customized encoder).

: Everyone here has come up with some ingenious methods for creating our controllers
: and cabinets... and all the guts are different... but I was looking for people who
: have tried multiple input methods and what "feels" the best. Do keyboard controllers
: respond better than hacks or are joystick hacks more playable. I think the most
: important thing about any of our projects is that the controls and gameplay feel
: right. For those of you with the real arcade collections.. how does the gameplay of your
: arcade controls compare with your real machine? Maybe this information could
: help others who are debating making controls settle on a input method to start with.
: Any Thoughts?
