Dauber Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 So...my big complaint about the ProLine joystick is the arrangement of the buttons. Really makes the hand fatigue pretty quickly. As an experiment in ergonomics, I held the controller for a while and "pressed" imaginary fire buttons at the top of the controller rather than the sides (top meaning the same panel as where the joystick is), it's a significant improvement. So I'm thinking, why not simply move the fire buttons to the top panel of the controller? It requires a bit of cutting, but hey, that's why I have a Dremel, right? Only thing is, I'd need to replace the rectangular buttons with smaller ones to make them fit properly. Any thoughts as to where I can get 'em? I don't care if they're rectangular or what, so long as I can fit 'em on the top panel, just above the joystick.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YANDMAN Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 why dont you just mod an existing controller with the pro-line internals or build an arcade stick like mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
