Saying Japanese sticks are always "4-way" (ie up,down,left,right) is absolutely false. Actually, I don't think anything aside from ancient arcade machines used 4-way. Or a specific arcade stick for old games. Do you guys mean Square gate, instead of 4 way? Saying Japanese sticks are always “4-way” (ie up,down,left,right) is absolutely false.

Also on japanese sticks the restrictor plate can be rotated to change to 4-way for games like pac man if you wish. this is 8-way, all their sticks are (8 directions, diagonals, duh).
