In cooperation with Speed-Link, we re-launched the only true joystick in september 2006: The Competition PRO for connection to a C64, Atari, Amiga, MSX and Amstrad/Schneider. The project was a huge success, only a few resellers can ship the cult device from the eighties at the moment. Since an end to the demand is not forseeable, we started a new production run together with Speed-Link. Brand new joysticks for computer-classics of the eighties will be available in july of this year.
The technical data in short:
* a true classic, an icon of retro-gaming
* connects to all retro systems like Amiga, C64, Amstrad/Schneider CPC, Atari, MSX
* six microswitches, two axles, four fire buttons
* upper fire buttons can be switched off
* cable length of 1.80 meters (5.9 ft)
* Powered by Individual Computers, the experts for retro-hardware
The new production run of the Competition PRO Retro was financially supported by our retail partners. The following resellers will carry the new joysticks exclusively until december 31st, 2009:
*
AmigaKit (England)
*
Red's Retro Computing (USA)
*
Gentle Eye (Finland)
*
Relec Hard&Software (Switzerland/France)
