  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
Or at least, by "crazy money" I mean I'll pay you nearly double the price of the unit to cover your costs and allow you to make some cash.
I have a limited time to test this yoke so that's why I'm offering more cash to anyone who either has an extra one or wants to save cash by re-wiring a controller.

Also, for the person who can hook me up, I don't have much in the way of original arcade parts, but you're welcome to a free Burgertime cocktail control panel which obviously has a fully working joystick (same as Pac Man, Ms Pac ect) and a Burgertime cocktail underlay. 

Just pm me or ideally, email me at "perihelions"....which is a hotmail address, so just type it all together :)

Thanks!

Craig

You can buy one here for $85: http://www.thisoldgame.com/products/usb-adaptor-for-atari-yoke-controller

I just bought one a couple of weeks ago. I haven't opened it yet. If you want to pay me nearly double that price, I'm happy to accommodate you!

Thanks,
-Jason

Hi Jason, thank you for your reply and sorry I missed it! I haven't been here in a while and couldn't find the post. Is there any way to message you? I'd still be interested in the USB interface if you have one. Thanks!

Craig.

Sorry, I have but 1, & I'm using it. There don't seem to be any more sources from which to buy these anymore...oh boy, let's watch their resale values skyrocket!  =O

Good luck,
-Jason

I don't know of all the options, but I just wired mine to a U-HID board from Ultimarc. The cheaper option if you don't need to hook anything else to it is the U-HID Nano.

I am planning to use my spare one for a paperboy controller. If it doesn't work well with that, I would probably sell it. I haven't tested it in MAME yet, but in the gamepad test, it looks like it doesn't have as much range in the xy directions as the star wars yoke does. I should be able to test it this weekend.
