where are you, it might help to know to advise you on who to buy from, there are many options
Hey in Atlanta Georgia, US here


ok, go to the buy sell trade forum on BYOAC and look for divemasters thread there, find his contact details, he may even have a website too since i last looked, he can get you anything of Happ but for a better price and most importantly, cheap shipping. this is the reason we dont buy direct from happ, theyre service isnt too good and their shipping is horrendous from what i read. you have many options for buttons in the US to be honest, lots of them are listed on the BYOAC site in the link

Cool I was thinking about this for the player buttons

And these for the fire buttons-Only in Red

Also, I'm looking at Happ for the buttons, anyone know of a better place?  I am getting the joystick from quarter arcade, but as best as I can tell they do not sell the push buttons.

it will work it will not be like the original machine in feel.
it is a micro switch joystick which will click when you move, the one pictured earlier is a leaf switch.
groovy game gear do a new leaf switch 4 way joystick, i think that could be the one for you. i wait for the purists/owners opinion on that


I could be mistaken, but the DL/SA joystick is actually a 8 way - a 4 way will work just fine, but you will not be able to perform the angle moves (not that it really matters in the game anyways) - you also require the leaf push buttons for the correct feel there as well. ;)

There is also a height difference, you want the one with the longer shaft.

oops i thought it was 4 way, groovy game gear do an 8 way leaf too, but it looks like this has been solved with the wico anyway

we call it cotton wool
cotton balls works very well as a term for a sissy though, maybe a new phrase has been invented :D

That's a micro-switch joystick, not a leaf...

just a guess but i think if our friend is searching through happs site, it is possible we have a lot to teach him. ;)

Did some searching on Happ today.. this Joystick looks A LOT like the one you showed:
http://www.happ.com/joysticks/5060841125r.htm
however they label it as a Ms. Pacman/Galaga, would it still work?
it will work it will not be like the original machine in feel.

Don't worry guys!
Atm i'm living in London with my girlfriend, who moved here 1-11-2010.
I've been here a week now, and things are going well, so in the end, i might end up living here.
ahh, ok, thats good to hear, i was worried for a while there. welcome to the UK  :)  as they say, when a man is tired of london, he is tired of life

you guys rock! thx a lot for taking on this task and for all your efforts, it will be a blast in the end.

btw, etienne is not a time traveller, he uses hermione granger magic (remember when she attended several classes at the same time?)!
:D
