Joystick ID

The Dong EMAIL HIDDEN

I've constructed a dual joystick 9pin atari/cbm/amiga to PS/2 / USB 
adaptor made from the board of a scrapped PS/2 keyboard for emulators and...

I acquired three joysticks in a lot, the one on the right is my all-time 
favourite digital joystick, the Kempston Competition Pro, which works as 
new after some cleaning. These are practically indestructible.

The one on the left is an anomaly. It probably used to have a big 
sticker on the bottom part. There is nothing inside or out to identify 
make or model. I guess that it is not UK made, but somewhere in Europe.
It is all microswitched and works ok after some minor patching up inside 
and swapping one sketchy switch with the right fire.

Wot is it? NE1 know?

(Not very exciting, I know, but I've never seen one before)


This thing is so big with a lot of free space inside I'm very tempted to 
mod it into something else, C64 DTV (full 64 inside) or a midi control 
surface...
