“Joystick a Day” Countdown to MAGFest day 8!
Today’s joystick features a kick-ass piece of artwork with an assortment of Capcom girls in Pocket Fighter style!  It has 6 button  curved Japanese layout, a Sanwa  joystick and clear Seimitsu buttons with a pink balltop.  Since this piece of artwork has a lot of faces and…. features in it, I used clear Seimitsu buttons and cut out the art that was drilled out for the button inserts.
This specific controller is wired for Xbox360 and  will  be for sale next weekend at Mad-Gear’s table in the merchant area.

“Joystick a Day” Countdown to MAGFest day 7!
Today’s joystick is an “American Classic”, and a twin of Day 2’s red joystick.  This joystick uses Happ USA-style   parts instead of the Sanwa parts most joysticks are made out of these   days. The controller box is also at a 15 degree angle, a more  comfortable way to play on arcade sticks for some.
This specific controller is wired for Playstation 1 and 2, and  will  be for sale next weekend at Mad-Gear’s table in the merchant area.

“Joystick a Day” Countdown to MAGFest day 6!
Today’s joystick features an iconic Nintendo game that doesn’t get much mainstream love in America, Earthbound!  The art is on a sedona red stained wood box which is a smaller, even more portable version of my already portable joysticks, has a 6 button curved Japanese layout, a Sanwa Joystick, and Sanwa buttons (and balltop) selected to match Ness’ character sprite.
I haven’t decided whether this stick will be wired for SNES or PC USB, but it   will  be for sale next weekend at Mad-Gear’s table in the merchant  area.

Today’s joystick has faux carbon fiber under the plexiglass, which looks amazing!  It also has an 8 button curved Japanese layout, a Sanwa joystick and beautiful clear, red Seimitsu buttons with a red bubbletop that really look like candy on top of the industrial looking carbon fiber and the deep, dark walnut stained box.  It really is a great contrast!
