    Hi,
    wondering if it is possible to use old Amiga or new PC joystick on pegasos2... I want to play all my old amiga games under UAE and also play Mame games, though I want to use a joystick like X-Arcade (6 button 2xplayer) under Mame. X-Arcade uses either PS2 Keyboard port or USB. Or use this joystick or a pc standard usb joystick via USB or my old amiga joystick to play games under UAE... is this possible? Thanks, Daniel :-?

    You can use old pc joysticks or pads with a 15 pins plug. No configuration needed. Don't know if an X-arcade works on the Peg but I know that a J-pac or I-pac do work, they are connected to the PS2 keyboard port like an X-Arcade. You can use a J-pac to build your own arcade stick like I did.
    USB pads do work but I had no luck with a Microsoft sidewinder.

    I have tried an off-brand PC joystick (using the standard pc connector) and an SP550 from Saitek (combo stick/pad USB).

    The stick was a bit too difficult for me to configure on the Saitek (analogue).
