Weird optical joystick
« on: June 14, 2004, 11:08:43 pm »
Ok... for anyone who wants to use it...

looks like a 49way joystick... but without the extra 41 ways...

I never tried to get it working.  It has a space for a 'spider' (from a 49way) but the spider is missing.  But you can I'm sure put something like a tire innertube or buy a spider if you want.

But free + shipping to whoever wants to try to get it working.

That is a Williams "Bubbles" joystick. Put it on ebay before I claim it just to be greedy.

LOL... Ok, I'll put it up on ebay.  Any clue how much it should go for?  10 bucks?

Heck, put it on for a buck, just important that a rare game specific joystick like that be made available to someone who might REALLY need it.
