4 way joysticks... do i REALLY need one?

Posted by Chris on February 15, 2002 at 12:42:00:

ok dumb question time... i know the difference between an 8-way and a 4-way, i also know which ones are used for which games and why they are used. will an 8-way simply not run 4-way games, or do all the people who put a 4 way on their pannel just want the real feel... if mame recieves an input for one of the 4 ways that the game isnt using, does it mess it up or just not care? is it a feel thing or does the game simply not work with an 8-way? i know these are dumb questions, but hey...
thanks for the info as always,
Chris
