USB Joystick reccomendations for winuae or EAU on linux?
« on: August 04, 2011, 04:27:27 AM »
I had a competition pro usb that I have been using for awhile. Honestly, I don't see the attraction to this joystick Its just so stiff and not really a joy to use...
 
As luck would have it, I stepped on it and broke one of the buttons. I would like to replace it with something that I will actually not hate using with winuae and all my games.
 
Any suggestions? Please give links if you know of a usb joystick that works well with winuae/amiga forever.
 
Alternatively, is there a sega genesis type gamepad that is usb? Thats what I preferred on my real amigas.
 
Thanks!
 
Steven

Need a part for a PC or Mac? PM me, I\'ll let you know if I come across it.

OS X trumps Windows on every level.

MorphOS, OS4 and Classic Amiga systems are the only ones who are real \'Amigas\', not that joke AROS or Amiga Forever.

I have a logitech "PS2 looking" USB gamepad that works great. Also got an adapter for a real PS2 controller. On Ubuntu and Kubuntu, they have both been plug and play
