I'd love to be able to play all my old games with a joystick, but having some trouble finding one that is close to the old Star Cursor. in look and feel, the flight sim type are crap for games that require pounding on the fire button.

Is there an interface that you can (still) get for the PC, to plug in an original Amiga joystick?

would love a Catweasel MK4 but they are no longer made.

if you still have yor old joystick...

also search on ebay for "retrolink"

also look on dealextreme.

I purchased the original Qanba from DX for $50. the Qanba 2 is $164, otherwise i'd recommend it for fighting games, but not at that price.

So this will work with WinUAE? if so it would be ideal.


I have a replica NES controller that works with WinUAE, I don't see why this would not work... don't have one though...
