Sega Saturn accessories (Eclipse Stick)

[c0ldb33r]

I've got a Naki brand Dreamcast VGA adapter for trade. A local person has offered to trade for a Sega Saturn 4 player multitap and an Eclipse stick (not the controller, the arcade style stick)

How is the Eclipse stick? Has anyone had experience with this?

Also, Does this seem like a decent trade?

His message to me was this:

I have 2 3 button Genesis and a 6 button, the Saturn 4 player multitap and Eclipse Stick, The big Along with WOrldwide Soccer, NHL 97.

Anyone know what he means by the big Along? I'm hoping he means to say he's got the Big Analog stick, because I'd kill for one of those, but can never find any around here. I'd Christmas Nights the place up with that little bugger

Four player multi-tap? Must be a third party one, because the Sega multi-tap supports six players. The Eclipse joystick is poor IMO (as is the Virtua Stick). I bought one of each for less than ten dollars back when the Saturn was getting blown out at retailers, and have barely touched either. Poor response on the sticks and the button feel is terrible as well.

Personally, sounds like a bad trade unless you have no use for the VGA box. If you're planning to use the joystick for fighters, I think you'll be disappointed.

Thanks for the input. The issue might be moot anyway - I can't get him to email me back. I probably will go through with it if he's got the NiGHTS analog stick, otherwise I won't.
