The game isn't even playable with the factory joystick. Absolute junk!!! Pissed. What year we in? They put this stone age sloth like joystick on it! Total bs.
This was great. Very helpful. My orientation was different than yours on the up down l r, But that was an easy fix. The biggest thing was joystick was factory set to eight points and the plastic piece over the stick needed to be adjusted to four points. Once we figure that out it was golden.
Wow! This was just the help I needed to tackle the brakes. Thank you for your thorough explanations on all parts here. You really made it look simple. Diy is always better than trusting strangers who either won’t put parts back where they belong or may just do something wrong. Thank you again. Great video!
The vast majority of classic "golden era" arcade games can be played with one joystick and two buttons, making this an ideal multi-cade type cabinet. Donkey Kong. Popeye. Frogger. Space Invaders. Galaga. Galaxian. Pac-Man. Scramble. Dig Dug. Qix. Jouse. Mario Bros. Qbert. Joust. RallyX. Zaxxon. and many more. (Note that a few, like Berzerk, require 8-way, which won't work with 4-way joystick setups.) If I go to the trouble of modding this cab at all, I will seriously consider going all the way in order to accomodate all of these great, old classics. Thanks for the insights here.
My Ms. Pac-Man partycade came from QVC, but it only has one button on the right side. Would this be the same process to exchange the joystick? I had the same trouble many are reporting. Thank you.
Great Video, but I've had mine for years and played the heck out of it and the stick still works fine! That being said however I am considering swapping out the buttons for micro switched ones.
just got my10-1 40th anniversary partycade ms paceman from QVC and after playing it for 5 minutes, didn't like the factory joy stick. felt like there was too much play and would miss a few turns. Will the Sanway JLF-TP-8yt alone improve play or do I need to get a 4lb spring as well?
Mr. David Giordano, this is the best tutorial brake pads replacement I've ever watched. ¡WHAT A WELL DETAILED JOB! TERRIFIC JOB! From 0 to 10, I give you 20. Than you so so much.
Great video! You definitely have a lot of room to upgrade! Not as a downer but to let you know that even though your experience is awesome, there are a couple more things you could do to blow your experience away every time you stand in front of the machine.
7:01 No.. What you do is take off your Restrictor Plate, then take off the PCB and screw the last screw. Then place the PCB back, and put your Restrictor Plate back on and full set. 😇
I'm not sure if it's the reason, but the licensing for Ms. Pac-Man has apparently been weird for a long time. Namco doesn't even put it on a lot of Pac-Man collections for console and PC.
The stick on arcade went up joysticks rotates. This is extremely annoying. Are the Sanwa joystick sticks like that also? Or are they stationary like they should be.
Thank you! I just bought this for my wife and she dislikes the stock joystick. She used to be a pro at Ms.PacMan when she was in high school and I am trying to get it to the way she remembers.
@@mgb269 Hey bud! Well... DIY Retro Arcade is an OK Spot..... I'm not gonna knock them... But other places are better... Ok so for the Cherry D44X Microswitches you would get them from Focus Attack and or Paradise Arcade Shop.... They seem to have a literally Unlimited supply of them 😅 The wires you would need for those switches are the regular .187 connectors.. I would also invite you to take a look at my channel and the various vidoes I have Particularly the Wiring video and the IL Eruo Stick guide that I have .. the rest were done before I began to focus on making Content towards trying to help people understand Arcade Controls and how to mod or upgrade them.
@@cMARVEL360 so is the sanwa joystick still the one to use? I like the idea that they are plug and play though I've soldered enough stuff in my life. where is your channel?
@@mgb269 my channel is the account which I'm replying to you with. It's cool that you know how to solder... None of my solutions involve that. You don't have to use Sanwa.... BUT! From my experience and research it seems there are some Gen 1 units that have these sticks that may not be adaptable to use Sanwa Parts... So there may be a point where Sanwa is Better.... BUT! Because of how the PCB works, it isn't plug and play. . . So the two options are you buy a Sanwa.... Buy D44X Microswitches, you buy .187 cables... You watch my video where I show you how to pull out the cables and use your stock wire harness.. Or you buy the Sanwa Individual parts, and D44X Microswitches, you buy .187 cables You watch my video and do the cable swap or splice and you will be good to go. Ok ... Some will tell you some crap about well if you have Sanwa.. why buy the switches?! My answer is because the Sanwa Switches are Soldered on to the PCB, It makes it harder for the ave person to replace the individual switch, to replace the PCB is 12-16 $, SOOO you ditch that shit from the get, use the Cheap in price D44X Microswitches which also so happen to be super High Quality and use the same idea for install as your current wire harness without the need for a Sanwa Adapter. Again ... My channel is my account to which I'm replying to you with. cMARVEL360
Good video so I'm a mechanic you never want to touch the new rotors with dirty greasy rubber gloves even after you brake sprayed them down I would also invest in S steel rod for holding the caliper easy investment $9 on amazon for 3 of them
Thank you for your video! I have a question about lifting the car. Name of the U shape mount? Is it a safe or factory position for floor jack or jack stand?
I think they were 8mm if I remember correctly , just turn them in by hand so you don’t strip the threads Incase it’s wrong . Also make sure the thread is correct.
