Since I've been playing my MVS cabinet more, I've noticed that the standard joysticks seem to be having trouble hitting the diagonals, especially up-left and up-right.
I've used the built in joystick test function, and everything appears to be working normally, but when actually playing a fighting game I find myself unable to jump forwards or backwards half the time, and I think it's also affecting my ability to do special moves.
Is there something else I can test, or would it be better to just buy whole new joysticks? I've been thinking about picking up some new ones ever since I bought the cabinet (I always thought the standard ones were too stiff for my tastes - it's too far to move to pull off any special moves).
I'd like to get something closer to the feeling of the original home system joysticks, or even something akin to those found in the Japanese arcade joysticks.
Can anyone recommend a good product? I mostly play fighting games, with some shooters thrown in for good measure if that helps.
Any advice would be appreciated.
