Depending on the game, I might actually choose this drive over a regular holonomic drive as you do get the full drive power in the desired direction as opposed to losing some energy on roller slippage.

You know what's even crazier? Use two cylinders in-line instead of one on the linkage. This way you could have the linkage engage half-way. With 4 wheels at 45 degree angles, you have a holonomic setup right there.

You'd get the best of all three worlds .
