Title: USB arcade joystick question
Post by: Vidkid72 on April 22, 2006, 01:26:09 pm

I was wondering if anything like this existed for a PC, maybe as USB?  That way I could take it apart and use it as is without requiring a keyboard encoder in my counter top MAME machine.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

what is that for?  it seems like most systems have an adapter so you can plug your console controllers into your PC through USB...

Lower price. Stick in this joystick is very good (FANTA). He is better from this stick http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=48514.0   Stick in DOA4 is disastrous- late engagement. I do not know anything about button in Saulabi but Fanta this good stick.

Thanks for the links Kowal, there's some cool toys on that site.  :)

I'm more looking for something hopefully with a red ball top.  If that's not possible then I'll probably purchase an X-Arcade although I can't find the solo on their site anymore.

This joystick that I showed in my first post is from an Xbox 360 although I'm pretty sure they make one for the Xbox too.

There are adaptors for just about every modern console to (and from) USB.
