Why use a 4-way only Joystick....?
....Pacman and other 4-way games such as Dig Dug, Mr Do!, Frogger, Donkey Kong and many more (see list below).... All used a dedicated 4-way only Joystick as the character only moved in 4 directions while these games can still be played with the usual 8-way stick it is very easy (especially in later levels when the game gets faster and more difficult) for the Joystick to slip into the unwanted diagonal corners sending your character in an unwanted direction.
Made with all Brand New Arcade parts.
and the Excellent Zero Delay Joystick encoder
Please Note
The 2 Small buttons at the top (Insert Coin and Player 1) are just extra fire buttons so will need to be mapped in Mame settings if you would like them to insert a coin etc...
Just plugs into the usb port no drivers needed
(Requires Mame to be installed on your PC, No roms Included)
Perfect for playing those 4-Way Classics such as...
Pacman, Mr Do!, Dig Dug, Frogger + Loads of other great 4-way games available in Mame
It also works Great with all 2-way games such has Space Invaders
Just Plug it in the USB port and play Pacman etc the way they were meant to be played

In the lead up to my perfect Pac Man attempt at the NERG event in Gateshead, I needed a decent joystick so I could have some practice time as my arcade cab is with the event organisers. A friend of mine suggested that I should see the joysticks that Mike makes here in the UK. I've played Pac Man since 1981, with a 20 year gap in between. I'm currently attempting the perfect game of Pac Man, something only half a dozen guys have achieved in 35 years since the game was introduced. Needless to say, I'm very picky when it comes to the quality and operation of the joystick that I use. These units are exceptional considering the price! They feel solid and well made, and the operation of the microswitches on both the joystick and buttons are spot on. There's even some rubber suckers on the base of the box so you can anchor it down on a smooth surface. Nice little touch! All in all, I'm very impressed with this custom joystick. From the build quality, price and functionality, you'd be hard pressed to find something better. What's more, Mike does more joysticks to suit the other classics like Defender. Amazing stuff and highly recommended!
