General

Thank you for purchasing the HotRod Joystick. The HotRod Joystick is designed to give you playability and
durability for many years to come. Thanks to your feedback, suggestions and support, we at HanaHo Games, Inc.,
manufacturer of the HotRod Joystick, have succeeded in producing a world class PC hardware product that has that
true arcade feel built into it. The HotRod Joystick is the absolute best production joystick on the market today and
we are proud to put our name on it!

The purpose of this manual is to get you familiar with some of the functions of the HotRod, and familiarize you with
the way the HotRod operates.

A word about Emulation and Classic Gaming

Thanks to some very good programmers, multiple platform-based programs called emulators let you play actual
arcade machine ROMS (Read Only Memory chips) on your PC at home. Most of these emulator programs are
completely free and can be found from a variety of sources on the Internet. However we must warn you that
acquiring licensed ROMS without owning the actual game or the license to hold the game is considered to be a
violation of the law. We do not recommend or even endorse our customers holding ROMS that they do not hold the
license to. We have however acquired the rights to legally distribute licensed copies of actual Capcom game ROMS
used in arcade machines from 1980 all the way to 1995. We have added this CD-ROM to your purchase of the
HotRod Joystick as a way to say "Thank You" for your order and have done this to preserve a rich history in
memories of arcade games that would otherwise be lost because they are no longer produced for sale.

One of the most famous arcade emulator projects is called M.A.M.E. (Multi Arcade Machine Emulator). It is by far
the biggest emulator with many followers and programmers writing drivers for well over 1600+ supported games to
date. We have included a special version of MAME, bundled within the HotRod Joystick Products as well as Tips
and Tricks, Cheat codes, source codes, utilities, and other data. See the CD-ROM in your package for more details.

We at HanaHo Games, Inc. would like to take a moment to acknowledge these individuals, for their hard work and
devotion to preserving these Arcade memories of more than 20 years past!
