Tehkan World Cup
#272544 - 01/09/12 09:06 AM


Hello!

I am desperately trying to make this game work properly.

Who knows of a trackball (not those arcade pieces that I need to build myself) that works very fine? I had tried with a Kensington Optic Orbital but it does not work well (poor in Marble Madness, totally useless - just like using a normal mouse - for Tehkan World Cup).

Thanks!

Try adjusting the analog sensitivity in MAME, it may help with your Kensington.

I no longer have that trackball.

I just wanted to know if there was some user that could recommend one that has been tested to work fine.

Also, if italie would be so kind about what he finds so amusing?

I'm not italie but:
1. http://www.powerstrike.net/Tehkan/twc.html
2. note "Created by Grand Master Peter C. H. (kastellorizo)"
3. http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/sho...hat=showmembers
4. http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=loonybin&Number=239532

In short, an inside joke referring to an old forum member who "laughed" like that in his posts (lololololololololol) and was an uber Tehkan World Cup fan, perhaps you've even seen his site before. As if you couldn't guess a creator of "MAME Flovies" (Flash Movies as he called them) was a member here... http://www.powerstrike.net/flovies.html

I miss Pete's flovies.

Maybe someday he'll come out of retirement.

Thank you very much for your explanation.

Much appreciated.

I saw that webpage before but it doesn't help me figure what kind of mouse trackball would give good result with the game.

However, I am also a very big fan of Tehkan World Cup (I left a lot of skin at the arcade ) and I really would like to play it again the way it should be.

X-Arcade Trackball. Industrial strength. Lifetime warranty. Quite pricey but well worth it. Top of the line product. I got mine on sale ($50 cheaper) a week before Christmas for $150 plus $19.99 shipping. Total price was $169.99

You are supposed to use CAPS!!! i.e. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL nt new [Re: italie]

How are you guys going? Recently got married, and before anyone asks, she is neither a minisuka nor a female octopus.

Also, I haven't stopped watching the new (cool) Tron movie.

And the real question is not where I have been, but where Faz has been! (I hope he is alright and happy, as he is the original inventor of the LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL)

Funny, those were the ~exact~ questions I had in my head...

Congrats!

Swore I'd see it in the theater, still haven't seen it.

He's adopting nicely into his new life, I believe he married George Takei.

LOL thanks man! :-)

You should, I saw it in 3D (twice) when it was released
last year, and I still love to see repeats of it on
satellite TV. Have probably watched it more than ten times!
It is a GREAT film.

Hello!

It looks a very nice option but the total cost including shipping (I live in Europe) would be 320$ which is beyond what I thought to invest.

Also, I only need the trackball. For all the other arcade games, a joypad works perfectly fine.
