Review of the Super Single from OzStick can be found here. Arcade Controller for PC Gameport: 'Controller Box' Have been thinking of making a controller with joysticks for my PC. With the help of this page, Jivin' Jim's Jazzy Jumpin' Java-less Page, I have been able to rig up a arcade controller that connects to the 15 pin, D-connector gameport of my PC. It has 4 buttons with 2 joysticks, (2nd joystick is hooked up to the 4 fire buttons - Robotron). **Update** 9 January 2005. Unfortunatly Jivin' Jim's Jazzy Jumpin' Java-less Page has gone the way of the dodo. I have the info on paper here, so when time permits, I will make it available. 12 October 2003. Finally got around to knocking up a control panel overlay better than the dodgy one I first attempted. Twin joysticks on Robotron is awesome. I have doubled my progression in the game. :) 9 October 2003. I picked up the powder coated controller box from the powder coaters and it looks great. I made up a homemade control panel overlay and printed it out on the home printer. (It turned out ok). I have installed the wire harness, joysticks and buttons and had a few games of Robotron, Shinobi, Wonderboy and Space Invaders. It all works fine. 7 October 2003. Have received the controller box from my friend. I also had some lexan, (perspex), cut for the top to cover and house a homemade cp overlay. 5 October 2003. Wondering where the housing unit is? It's coming. My friend has made me a nice controller rectangle from a light sheet metal. It will be housed very soon.
Some hints: Thanks to Super Mappy for his knowledge and for pointing me to Jim's web site for the information.
This is a win off eBay. Marquee and Bezel are in fantastic condition with no cigarette burns. Control Panel has alot of wear but is still in good condition, (remember it's 27 years old). PCB is untested at this stage. Not shown is a complete wire harness, and the accelerator pedal.
