The new rubberized knob of the TurboTwist is really nice. It works great on every game so far.
HOWEVER, I wonder if it doesn't spin enough. Remember the Tornado that spun for minutes? The TurboTwist spins for half a second.

The EZ Arcade Solutions guy is helpful, ships quickly and puts out a decent product for the money. It was recognized just fine in MAME32. The arcade feel of it varies: my girlfriend used to live with an Arkanoid cabinet, and she said that the feel isn't the same -- she was able to cover the entire field of play in Arkanoid by giving its knob a half spin. That isn't possible with the EZ Arcade one, no matter how sensitive. It's fine in Tempest, but I would probably go with the Groovy Game Gear one for the actual cabinet I (eventually) (hopefully) put together.
Did you try raising the "digital speed" number in the analog control settings? After tweaking that and putting the sensitivity at the highest it could go before incuring backspin, I was able to perfectly match the Arkanoid feel, as well as I remember it. I can definitely reach both edges with a 180 turn. |
