FS: Nintendo PC Joystick (Yes, Nintendo)

[norkusa]

Okay, here's kind of an odd item. An officially licensed Nintendo PC flight stick/joystick. Don't know much else about it. Can't really test it either since I don't have a gameport input on my Mac. Too bad because I'd use this for my flight sims if it was USB. Feels pretty solid and well-built though and even has yaw control (twisty base) too.

Asking $15 +ship or will consider trades for PS1/PS2/360 games.

I think they made one of these for the N64, too. How weird.

Really? I don't think I've ever seen one for N64. Was it a Japan-only thing?

I'm probably mistaken, I looked around and you made the post (http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=117816) where I first heard about this. :p

I actually own that exact joystick. I bought it a year or 2 ago and found the drivers for it online. I used to it play Apache on the PC and it seemed to work alright. It's a well built and solid feeling joystick.

There's not a lot of info about it on the internet, but I do know that the drivers are online somewhere- I've just forgotten where.

It's Known as the Nintendo NJS-3D1 and it's made by the Laral Group, for anyone interested. If someone were to want the drivers, I could send them in an email as I don't think they're too large. Shoot me a PM if anyone needs them.

Free Bump.

Ahh, thanks for the info. I almost forgot about that post I made, Kit. I actually just found this stick recently and it's not the same one I saw at the thrift last year (that one was missing the slider I believe).

I was worried that the drivers might be hard to track down, so thanks for sharing DI. Does feel like a very well built stick though. If I had the know-how, I'd try modding it with a USB cable so I could use it.
