Are the Amiga's joystick ports serial? I didn't think they were.

Scala / InfoChannel used a mouse port dongle, as did a few other things... But the ones I know didn't look like that

The dongle Scala used was red and nowhere as big as the one in the pictures if I remember correctly.

What about opening the case to show the guts? Easier than guessing WTF this is showing just the 9-pin female socket (Amiga mouse/joystick port pluggable).

Robocop3 uses a joystick dongle too - but it's not from that either.
