Classic DE-9 configuration used with Amstrad/ Spectrum / C64 / Atari2600 / Amiga /ST and many other systems with Standard 9-pin 'Atari Style' Joystick port. i.e. BOTH fire buttons have the same function for Left or Right handed play and is compatible with most retro computers from 1980s to 1990s.

Directly Compatible with:-

- Amiga (not CD32)
- Atari ST
- Atari 8 bit (400,600,800, XEGS etc.)
- Atari 2600 (Not 7800 or 5200!)
- Amstrad CPC Range (464, 664 , 6128) 
- Commodore 64 and 128
- Commodore VIC 20
- SAM Coupe
- ZX Spectrum NEXT
- ZX Spectrum 16k/48k/48k+ with Kempston interface (NOT +2/+2B/+3)
- Memo-Tech MTX
- Atari Flashback
- PC-8801 (1985 and post models ONLY)
- Sharp X1 / CZ-800C (エックスワン, Ekkusuwan)
- Foenix 256K Retro computer
- Acorn Archimedes A3010 ONLY! (Only computer in this range that accepts ATARI style CX40 joysticks - check for game compatibility!)
- New Atari 2600+

...and many others that use same style connector - please ask if unsure NOT all devices with same connector use same protocol!!!

This has a 9-pin D-SUB connector (DE-9 / DB9) [Same as RS232 serial port connector (FEMALE)] on the end of it for connection to most Retro Home Computers and Consoles.

Steel shaft and Arcade parts , Fully micro-switched giving superior control and feel. Very responsive!

Much more responsive than a refurbished or Used Joysticks and they tend to wear out and are constructed of plastic parts where things should be metal and contain leaf switches not micro-switches...even Original Competition pros wear out. This thing will Last. Arcade Quality.

Reportedly better than a Competition Pro and Zip-Stik according to one customer with over 30 years of experience.

Many amazing reviews! - Please check here!

N.B. I am not associated with the Centre for Computing History in Cambridge I have just donated several Joysticks and Retropads to them so people can use them and try them out for themselves and helps the centre which supports education and historical preservation. They have been met with a lot of positive response from Gamers and general public alike. Thank you.

N.B. This unit comes partially assembled and some minor assembly is required with a screw driver. All the electronics have been done (No soldering required - just a screwdriver). Comes with full step-by-step instructions and is very easy to do. Takes about 5 mins.

Please ask for other colours.
