Wanted - USB Joystick Adapter
Hope someone can here can help who are either selling one or can point me in the right place for a reasonably priced one.
I had a decent one from Amazon (no longer sold) which had 2 ports - so really handy and was sensibly priced. All I can see now are are single ones, there is one on Ebay for £28 with postage which appears to be the best I can find (as 2 ports) there is one on the stepstick site for £18 with postage, but single port only Can't beat the old retro joysticks, the USB comp pro is nowhere near as sturdy as the original |

Thanks for the reply - is that supposed to be housed in casing or do you simply connect a USB cable to it from your PC?
Would any 9 pin USB adapter work - for example this? Amazon Link |

I am no expert but I dont think that will work as it is for a serial cable not Amiga / Atari joysticks..
you can play an extra couple of dollars for small plastic cover sort of thing.. I have also wrapped mine in electrical tape to protect it a bit more but my look at another solution in time. The Zipstick works fine with it on WinUAE and on the Pi with Pimiga or Retropie.. |

This looks ok, reasonably priced and in casing too, with double port |
