 As you already have an Amiga joystick, it would be an unnecessary expense to get another. Have a look at this thread http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=40768 for a way to use it with your PC. |

just a note that amiga joysticks and mice are not serial devices
http://pinouts.ru/Inputs/AmigaMouseJoy_pinout.shtml as compared to 9 pin D-SUB serial http://pinouts.ru/SerialPorts/Serial9_pinout.shtml Amiga's use 25 pin D-SUB connectors for their serial needs http://pinouts.ru/SerialPorts/SerialA1000_pinout.shtml http://pinouts.ru/SerialPorts/SerialAmiga_pinout.shtml Last edited by smoorke; 30 July 2009 at 00:12. |
