Joysticks in Control Panels

This page lists the mounts for joysticks in Japanese arcade cabinets. Each manufacturer and each generation of cabinet could mix things up, depending on the trends of the day.

SNK Super Neo 29 Candy

It's likely that this panel's configuration is the same across many of the SNK panels. It is not yet confirmed, so for now it's accurate for this panel only.

Compatibility:

  • This panel mount fits the Sanwa JLF-P-1S plate.
  • It is the same size as the standard Sega mount (Sega Virtua Stick Pro and some Aero/Astro City panels).
    • The depth is different however: The Sega plate is 14mm, the SNK plate is 10mm.

Sega Aero/Astro City Panel

The first two candy-style cabs, Aero City and (New) Astro City from Sega used a 96mm mount, the same as the SNK panel above, but 14mm deep instead of 10mm.

Seimitsu no longer makes this plate, but Sanwa still sells their JLF-P-1S adaptor plate for JLF sticks.

Sega *City VF Panel

While the Aero and Astro City panels use a large 95mm spacing for their mounts, the VF panels found in later cabs use a much smaller 65mm. Because of the much smaller span there's no longer space to use the 14mm-deep adaptor plate that brings the stick mechanism closer to the panel.

Sega VF Panel Mount

Sanwa JLF sticks will mount directly, using the two opposed screw mounts. Seimitsu sticks will require either the VF Base, SE Base P=40, or their All-In-One plate.
