Joystick Fix -- MSI Entertainment Arcade -- Ms Pac-Man

thingiverse

This joystick replaces a broken joystick in the MSI Entertainment TV Arcade games. The following is a list of compatible games that are designed with the same parts: (See pictures for what these look like) -Ms. Pac-Man -Space Invaders -Megaman 2 -Double Dragon -Frogger -Midway Classics Vol 1 -Namco Classics Vol 1 You will need super glue to permanently attach the shaft of the joystick to the 4-way internal selector switch. Just put a light coating of superglue around the end of the shaft and slide the 4-way selector over the shaft so it sits flush (see picture). You will likely need to cut the shaft of the old joystick that has a broken 4-way selector to get it out of its housing once the box is opened up. When replacing with the new one, be sure that the labeled up/down portions of the 4-way selector run up and down. The surfaces are taller on the up/down sides. This fixes a problem where it was hard for the up/down movements to register with the machine with the old switch.
