ASCII Specialized Joystick
Review from the Net
I have had the ASCII Fighting stick for over a week now. I was lucky enough to find two of these available at Kay Bee Toy Store (popular in shopping malls) for $59. I think that this joystick is a MUST HAVE!!! The stick feels solid and makes a slight audible click when moved to the extremes of the typical eight directions (N, S, E, W, NW, NE, SW, SE). The base is weighted so that it doesn't move during games when mounted on a coffee table (a definate plus). In addition, there aren't any cheesy lick-em and stick-em suction cups on the bottom. ASCII chose to put little rubber seats on the base. Cool. >From the picture, the joystick seems to be overly round. It isn't. The ergonomics are perfect. This is a solid joystick. I've been playing Ridge Racer and RayMan. I can't imagine going back to using the original pads. This joystick really completes the in-home arcade experience. -KLH
