Check out this cool adapter for controlling a Commodore Amiga with a PC Analogue Joystick (fitted with 15 pin Gameport plug).
It's really compact at just 4cm long, and as it's PCB based, it is much more robust than cable-based adapters.
Now you can play those Amiga flight sims as they should be played!
Here's a list of just some of the Amiga games that you can play with a PC analogue joystick:
- A-10 Tank Killer Version 1.5
- Air Warrior
- AV8B Harrier Assault
- Birds of Prey
- Descent: Freespace- The Great War
- F-15 Strike Eagle II
- F-19 Stealth Fighter
- FA-18 Interceptor
- Fighter Duel Pro/Pro 2
- Flight of the Intruder
- Flight Simulator 2
- Gunship 2000
- Jet Pilot
- Knights of the Sky
- MicroProse Formula One Grand Prix/World Circuit
- MiG-29 Fulcrum
- MiG-29M Super Fulcrum
- Reach for the Skies
- Red Baron
- Tornado OCS/ECS/AGA
These adapters work better with the simpler type of analogue joystick that just contains two potentiometers such as the joystick in the photo.
Joysticks with advanced features such as motion sensing, programmable buttons etc may not be compatible.
