I've been noticing the stick on my Ms. Pac cabaret feeling "floatier" (loose?) lately. I was thinking about replacing it but couldn't seem to find if there's any difference between the cabaret stick and the full size upright stick. I'm thinking no and that something like this would be fine:

Is there a recommended replacement out there? Thanks!
 
They're the same stick. Just be aware the new grommets are a lot stiffer. It will take a little getting used to.
 
Sounds easy enough, I'll get one on the way - thanks!

I wouldn't buy a new joystick or if you do keep the old one and put it in the coin bin. Try a rebuild if you please,there are kits out there for it. Midway had the best back in the day and that new microswitch crap sucks. But the new grommet plan sounds good to me.
 
arcadeshop sells them too, I didn't think there's was very stiff.

I can't remember where I got mine. I think they were from Bob Roberts. They are stiff but am sure they'll wear in.
