Whatcha mean? There are quite a few companies that still make them.

I remember buying one of those arcade boxes when Street Fighter 4 first released. Good times....

Well it's difficult to find one with a bat stick, but this one has both (ball top and bat) , and it comes with a screwdriver. Everything fits inside as well

Nice, cool idea to raise the monitor up as well so you can stand and play easily.

I've been wanting to get an adapter so I can use a classic zip stik with Amiga ports, that would certainly complete the nostalgia for me. Well without going all out and hunting down a working Amiga and the games.

speedlink has something very similar, i actually used that one i think (not the one you had, but this one, i'm from europe , maybe that's why)

I also had these joysticks that used the same back port then hehe

for the atari 2600 (didn't have the left one here)

For the c64 and amiga (can't quite remember what i used for what lol, the first two for c64 for sure, the others I don't know if i already had them with my c64 lol)

old times old times

@commander: Oh wow awesome, I actually had quite a few of these for both my Amiga and C64 back in the day :D

No Caption Provided

I had one of the ones above with 4 buttons, and quite a few of the classic yellow zip stiks with the 2 square buttons. Also I remember getting a couple of the square ones on the far right in the picture below with my first C64.

Also one of these ones below as well, but it would always be the backup stick, and a number of friends I knew had these QuickShot ones.

Now that last type above, I actually got one of these for my PC to play things like the X-Wing games, but I would also use it with my Amiga from time to time. It was a great flight stick.

When games were good and you weren't sure if you'd ever finish them.
