Review: Great Stick, silent, short throw, snaps to center, good tension, plays Ms. Pacman fine, need a controller box that's 3"+ deep. - This is a great stick. I had no trouble playing Ms. Pacman with it, it felt pretty good. I then went on to play Ghouls and Ghosts and beat it for the millionth time. It worked flawlessly. Never got stuck ducking when I didn't want too. The stick let me move the way I wanted without any issues. Of course the games were MAME Arcade emulator games. The stick is pretty silent, it is a 8 way stick, but it played Ms. Pacman just fine. I've used many controllers that can't do this. It seems to be hard to find a good stick that will play Ms. Pacman as well. This stick isn't going to fit a store bought joystick, unless it's at least 3"+ deep. The problem is, the shaft sticks out the bottom of the stick a good ways. I had bought the New Arrival DIY Arcade Panel Acrylic Inclined+Joystick Case Replacement for Arcade Game,Black but it's too shallow, and the stick is to close to the wall of the box. The Acrylic box is nice though, a Sanwa like stick works nicely in it though. The stick has to me a short throw, and snaps back to center quickly. It's also not a loose stick, the stick has a good tension to it. Now, If I can find a deep enough box to install in it.
Review: Perfect fit and easy to assemble. - The fit exactly matched the Happ joystick that I was replacing. It works great and was easy to assemble and install

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect fit and easy to assemble.
*by T***. on October 23, 2025*

The fit exactly matched the Happ joystick that I was replacing. It works great and was easy to assemble and install

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classic Arcade Feel with Great Build Quality!
*by K***N on May 11, 2025*

I recently upgraded my arcade cabinet with the EG STARTS American Style Arcade Joysticks, and I couldn’t be happier. These joysticks deliver that authentic, rugged arcade feel reminiscent of old-school American arcade machines. The build quality is solid, with a heavy-duty base and responsive action that makes gameplay smooth and satisfying. I like that they use the Happ style replaceable switches. The installation was simple and straightforward, even for someone like me who's not a tech expert. The joystick’s spring tension feels just right—not too loose, not too stiff—and it holds up well during long gaming sessions. The compatibility with various arcade setups is a huge plus, and I appreciate that the kit includes everything needed for easy setup. If you're looking to bring that nostalgic arcade experience back to life or just want a reliable joystick for your DIY project, EG STARTS delivers in both quality and performance. Highly recommended!
