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

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.

Notes:

Print the 4-way selector with 100% infill -- Lines or Aligned Rectilinear pattern.
The ball and shaft can be printed with 20% infill -- Cubic pattern.
