Tanooki Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Doesn't seem very shameless, I get why you're doing that both working with the company and the cheap boxed item with the HDMI dongle, but the titles are of a whole other caliber.

Actually, the design and functionality is patented by AtGames. In terms of game listings, I think you'll find they're generally comparable.

negative1 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 (edited) just got the Jakks 2008 12-1 namco plug n play. its decent, but I'M RIGHT HANDED and the BUTTONS ARE ON THE LEFT. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH so any games that require shooting, or speedup/smoke/doors/bombs etc, are unplayable for me. if you can find it cheap, its still worth playing. yes, i could resolder the connectors, and flip it upside down, but then pole position wouldn't work with the twisty stick. oh well. later -1 Edited March 19, 2020 by negative1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow! -- this is easily the most un-ergonomic "joystick" that I have ever seen. Is it really intended to be a functional system or just some bizarre display piece? I would pay Cdn$10 (US$7.96) just for the novelty of the thing, but no more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
