And if it doesn't will you do a version that does?

Looks great, but any plans to add autofire?

Otherwise, we'll have something to mod.

Dimensions of joystick:20 x 20.5 x 5.5 cm

I find it strange that the questions regarding the brand of components have been ignored. One can only assume that they are no-name.

T_hairy_bootson · 11 December 2013, 10:28

Maybe they can do a pro edition with sanwa parts. Or you could always swap them out yourself.

DDNI · 11 December 2013, 10:50

Given the case is £22 on its own, they would be doing well to fit it out with Sanwa parts and get it out of the door for less than £70, realising zero profit!

Joystick looks good, but could he look any more awkward in the way he is sitting with it!?

amigakit.com · 15 December 2013, 13:36

There wasnt much room on the small show tables provided

If you want to mod or select your own high quality parts, then it's perhaps easier just to buy components to put in your own case... Ultimarc ( http://www.ultimarc.com/store/section.php?xSec=6 ) has a great store for parts, also with USB control circuits for those on pc systems.

Crikey is the table the same as the one at the back of the picture? They're tiny!

Indeed they are, lol.

Wouldn't a full size arcade stick make more sense? With all the CD32 buttons available on it?

Considering how many WHDLoad slaves support CD32 extra buttons these days.

It would be a standard 6 button layout with the extra 7th button being the Play/Pause.

tin · 15 December 2013, 19:16

yep that'd be a great idea. I'd buy. And proper arcade quality parts version pls Amigakit.

Actually, two extra buttons are needed on the sides to get the proper arcade feeling with Pinball Dreams. I added that to my build, it is very nice.

You could also add a sensor to detect when the controller has been "tilted".
