So what makes 4" Wico sticks better than generic sticks?

Is it that the action is somehow better or is it just because they are NOS? Any way to make the generic one Bob sells almost as good as a Wico?
 
They were what Robotron was released with. Staying true to the game mostly is why most people use them including myself. If all you've ever used are cherry switched joys then you'll be happy. Anyone that's ever played the real deal will hate your machine.

Does it have to be 4" Wico's .... no. Can I use 3.5"? Yes. Does it have to be leafs .... no. Do I think you suck if you don;t use leafs ... yes. lol
 
Hey Ryan, I have Bobs cheapo 3.5" ball top leafs in my multiwilliams. I mostly play Robo and I like them. Better than anything microswitched.

I have played a dedicated with the proper sticks, (the guy who I got my TRON from had one) and it felt a little less stiff, not sloppy, but easier to move. Not night and day, but yes, the real stuff felt better to me.

Now the one at Ground Kontrol, that thing has microswitch joys. Worn to crap, sloppy as hell, just feels terrible to me. Doesn't stop people from scoring million plus games though...
 
What they say.

I promise I will look over the holiday.

Switching roles at work and it has been nuts getting everything done. Need to finish today.
