NEW Joy Stick Blues

[fussygamer65]

Ordered a new joy stick for Ms Pac and I hate it. This thing clicks with every movement and doesn't no where have the feel or play of the old ones. So my question to you guys is are there and good old style leaf joy sticks being made and if so by whom? Thank you in advance

I would just post in the wanted section for an original Pacman joystick. You'll find one in no time.

Yep.........

Rebuild your original one, nothing beats those original sticks. Probably needs a new grommet and you're back in business.

GroovyGameGear makes newer repro leaf sticks, but they are still repros. There are mixed reviews about them. Most repro sticks are better than cheap microswitch sticks, but not as good as original.

Your best bet is to just find an original stick and refurb it yourself, or get a refurbed one from someone.

I know Nethawk86 picked up a couple while we were on a parts run a few weeks back.
You might send him a PM and ask him if he still has a nice one.

I dunno...something about messaging a stranger and asking if they have a nice joystick just doesn't sit well with me.

"Yes, excuse me, sir, how's your joystick? If it's too loose, I can rebuild it..."

Knobs & shafts polished, innards lubed and a fresh grommet...what more could you ask for?

 

[Nethawk86]
