Home / Hardware - Atari to CoCo Joystick Adapter
Atari/Commodore joystick adapter
Here's a fun and easy project I've loved using with my CoCo. This adapter was designed to interface an Atari(or C64) style joystick to you CoCo. This is great for games like Zaxxon or Ghana Bwana, where analog controllers are sometimes too sensitive. I left the Atari connector out of the schematic so you can also easily convert a dusty PC gamepad or nearly any "digital" (meaning on/off switches as opposed to analog 0-5v) joystick. I attached an Atari joystick cable to an old Nintendo gamepad, plugged into this circuit to plug into my CoCo. Talk about a Frankenstein setup!
