Happ-E Birthday

A birthday wish when given in an electronic form, such as on a social networking website. In recent years happ-E birthdays have skyrocketed in popularity relative to face-to-face and telephonic birthday wishes because they require much less effort and can be given without having to awkwardly converse with the wish’s recipient or even remember their birthday. Unfortunately, happ-e birthdays are so easy to give that all 450 of your Facebook friends are obligated to post redundant messages on your wall on your birthday and if even one neglects to take part it constitutes a treacherous insult.
I logged on to Facebook this morning and saw that I had 7 happ-e birthdays to give so I called into my job and told them I’d be late.

Suzo-Happ offers two main joystick models for arcade cabinets: the Competition and the Ultimate. The Competition joystick is generally preferred for fighting games due to its accuracy in diagonal movements, while the Ultimate is favored for more circular motion-based games. The main difference lies in the feel and how they handle specific movements, with the Competition having a more defined feel for diagonals and the Ultimate having a smoother, circular motion.

Key Differences:

Actuator and Microswitches:

The Competition and Ultimate joysticks have different actuators and microswitches, which affect how the joystick responds to inputs.

Feel and Movement:

The Competition joystick is often described as having a more rigid, precise feel, particularly for fighting games where diagonal inputs are crucial. The Ultimate joystick is generally described as having a smoother, more circular motion.

Applications:

The Competition joystick is often recommended for fighting games due to its accuracy in diagonal movements, while the Ultimate is favored for games that require more circular movements.

Assembly:

Both joysticks can be assembled with either a long or short cylinder to adjust the height relative to the control panel, and they come with a standard spring, with a heavier spring also available.

Durability:

While some users on Arcade Controls Forum say the Happ joysticks are not as durable as they once were,
