REVIEW: Happ's 3" Trackball with optional Translucent blue ball.

"This Trackball is absolutely awesome.  I replaced my old Wico trackball, and the difference was intense.  The ball glides like it's on air. I wired into my opti-pac and was up and running within 5 minutes.  There was a bit of adjusting to do to the speed, it seemed to run a bit slower than the Wico, but after adjusting the sensitivity in MAME it runs much more accurately than the Wico did.  I prefer the housing on the Wico, with everything on the inside, but the fact that this ball has it's insides on display doesn't take away from the fact that this is THE ball to have when it comes to your Mame cabinet.  The translucent blue ball is obviously a plus, and garners extra marks!  I'll be hooking this into the adapter that comes with the Oscar spinner when it arrives, but with the Opti-pac, it is a top performer, no questions asked!!!"

Final Remarks: OUTSTANDING PRODUCT!

"I really used to like Centipede.  I played it on this trackball, and even though it plays well, it just seems different from what I remember, more like a toy than what was on the old machines.  Same thing with Missile Command.  After a little bit of playing, I liked it just fine, but first impressions are everything. I did, however, like the glow very much, and it is nice and smooth like Zakk says, so I can't give it bad marks."

Final Remarks: Fun, but toy-like.
