Hehe...Excellent - did it work? I always imagined that it would be quicker than the joystick to try using yer fingers on the keyboard, but it just wasn't possible. You should have marketed the rotary switch device. Just put some lightening logos, flames, and "Roto-Zappa!" in large red/yellow writing.. Nice black case.. etc. etc. It'd have sold millions.. £45 to you mate... Course, people might get a bit annoyed when they realised what it is. But a few hundred in your pocket, thankyouverymuch sir. I guess the thing wrong with Joystick Power is that it didn't have a large red blob (Daley Thompson - I'm talking *on screen* here, before I get sued) racing alongside a large green blob (Opponent chap). The canoeing was always the hardest bit.. after that it moved from being about pure wiggling and into timing & skill, which was beyond me...
