    I can dig ultimarc - certainly can't complain about quality. I think u/m was the stick that a buddy of mine used that was magnetic and let you adjust four/eight way by pulling up/turning the stick. My only complaint (if it could be called such) was that it was a little rigid - much less like what one might remember in the on a well-work kong where the
    joystick just kinda fell in one direction or another.

    I use servo stick that automatically adjust between 4 or 8 positions depending on the game (works through LEDBlinky and the MAME.INI) and I like the feel of them. I was going to switch to the Ultrastic's but have decided to stick with my servosticks for now.

    Wait, what? I've seen some hardware-methods of switching from 4 to 8 but... haven't heard of... well - this hardware method. :P

    It is pretty slick, when you start a game there is a little servo on the joystick that moves a plate to either restrict it to 4 positions or un-restrict

    it to 8 positions depending on the game.
    Here is a video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pbLHtLzrgg
