Don't get the Ultimate Pushbuttons. They're stiffer and break down easier. Get either the Competition if you like convex buttons or the Horizontal ones if you like concave buttons. For Street Fighter games, go with either Competition or Super. Don't ever get Ultimate Joysticks. Haven't heard nothing but bad stuff about them. Personally, I use Happ Super w/ Perfect 360. These aren't the ones Happ have on their website. These are discontinued. I've tried the new ones they offer on the website, and they're pretty good. The new ones is pretty much a Competition stick with a Perfect 360 module attached to the bottom instead of microswitches.
: Before ordering all of the parts i need for my control panel, i was wondering what on earth is the difference between the competition pushbutton, pushbutton with horizontal microswitch, and ultimate pushbutton with microswitch?? They all seem just about the same so i really dont know what their differences are if any. Also, is the ultimate joystick the standard "street fighter" stick or is the universal it? i know that the universal has a 4/8 way switch and the other does not. The only thing that im worried about is the size. The universal is shorter than the ultimate. Since im used to the street figher stick and i prefer it, id like to know which is which. Lastly, will the 4 1/2" trackball be able to be hooked up to the opti-pac?? Any help on this topic would appreciate. Thanks.
