new retro joystick

Yesterday (7th June 2023) a new retro joystick kickstarter launched.


Amiga for Mortals plans to produce the Immortal Joystick, a new retro joystick that uses the high-quality buttons and mechanisms you’d find in arcade joysticks, but complete with a moulded DB9 connection (Atari standard), which ensures compatibility with a number of retro systems, such as C64, Amiga, Spectrum (Kempston) and many more. Immortal Joysticks will be offering the joystick in a variety of colours. If you ever wanted playing on your home computer to feel more like playing an arcade machine, then this is the joystick for you!



Immortal Joysticks have already raised £7,651 of their £25,000 goal within less than 24 hours of the campaign going live.

Amongst the 52 backers so far is Fusion’s big cheese, Chris \Wilkins, and he certainly knows his stuff when it comes to retro gaming!


If you’d like one of these impressive new retro joysticks for yourself, head on over to Kickstarter and pledge a minimum of £140.
