Replacing a Sanwa Joystick with a Suzo Happ Joystick?

Post by MrOldSchoolCool »

I'm making a US-style arcade stick but am confused on how to swap out the Sanwa JLF for a Suzo Happ. My confusion comes from how the joystick is wired to the rest of the console.

The Sanwa looks like it uses a 5-pin connector whereas the Suzo Happ has individual plugs.

You could probably use something like this if you don’t want to rewire things yourself.
Not certain if .187 are the correct quick-connect size for your new stick though.
