Check this out. Seems to me lilke an improvement to good old X-Arcade Stick. The clou is - there is an existing Adapter for Amiga available.



Plus: You can add your own design before ordering.

Minus: Not cheap. :-) But hey: Sanwa arcade parts are used.... nearly undestroyable...
I think I will get myself one for X-mas or so....  ;D

BTW: Here you can order the stick:

I ve been making custom arcade-sticks for quite some time now (it has sort of become a side-job nowadays and I ve even made a Sensible-stick not too long ago, check it out ) and I can tell ya that 229 € (basic model) + 79 € (X360 compatibility...why couldn t they just hack a 24.90 € Gamestop brand joypad PCB instead is beyond me) + 19 € (Amiga compatibility...which in fact takes just a 1~2 € DB9 cable and a 5 minutes soldering job, lol) - total 327 Euro + shipping unless Babelfish messed up - for a rather standardish, 10 buttons stick made out of MDF is a little over the top.

I could make you (an extremely polished) one for roughly 250 Euros (make it 200 if you re going for just PC/Amiga and one system between PS3 and X360) and you d get to pick the size of the case, the materials, the buttons layout and so forth (custom artworks included). ヽ(・∀・)人(・∀・)ノ

Wow - nice work Retreiving. Didn t be aware of that fact. Looks very interesting to me..., especially that I am an old fan of the MAME Project. Playing Space Invaders when I was 4.... Know what I mean...

FC:
Sure it`s a high price.... but I just wanted to tell that there is an arcade controller with ready-to-go Amiga Adapter outside, wich afaik wasn t before...

Again: Good work! ;)
