Game Not Over: Part 4
Just a quick update. I ordered a new 4-way joystick last week. It arrived today. Here is a photo of the old joystick.
The joystick I originally was useing never really had good action on games that require a 4-way. Pac-man and Donkey Kong are good examples. If you use an 8-way joystick you get stuck when you hit the diagnal positions. So the new joystick is a true 4-way. I think it is a true pac-man joystick replacement.
It was an easy install. Here is a photo of the new one.
The action is 100% better that the old one. No dead spot moves in Ms. Pac-man now.
Next update will be the addition of a full MAME game library I ordered from one of the online ROM burners.

Hey, Ed … not related to your game at all, but Westside practice starts Tuesday night, 5:45pm at Valley Southwoods (there for the first week) if the kids are still interested. We start practicing at Valley High School next week.
