Clear Classic USB Joystick

Post by Richard James »

Clear USB joystick modelled on the classic Atari 2600 model. Glows blue.

This looks pretty interesting for playing games in VICE. I assume it works in VICE?
Change is inevitable except from a vending machine.

Nice! All USB joysticks should work well in VICE. I have to restrain myself from buying one, as I already ordered THIS. :D

Same thing save the cosmetics.
In the end it will be as if nothing ever happened.

I just ordered one. Which is really bad as I'm totally skint! :oops: But it's just too cool and will go perfectly with my C64 Invasive Action cart...I'm a fool for LED's!

PS: Don't tell my girlfriend!

Now I know what to wish for, for my birthday, an USB Joystick :-)

I bought an old USB gamepad from Value Village for $1.99, opened it and soldered a 9-pin sub-D female port onto it. Now I can use it as an interface to connect any old style joystick (WICO, Atari, etc.) to my PC and use if to play emulated games (Stella, UAE, VICE, etc.). It works great!

This isn't the friendly community I once thought it was! :(
