We’ve all been there: you sit down to play some retro games with friends and the host hands out the controllers, with you somehow being landed with the most aged relic of video gaming history, a joystick which looks like it’ll cause you RSI within 5 seconds, and possibly non-functioning buttons! We’ll, worry no more as the Pocket Joystick Tester is here to prove you DID actually press jump before you got dematerialised by a lazer cannon!
This nifty device allows you to test every function of a Commodore or Atari controller, in a mobile device which fits in your pocket, simply powered by a CR032 battery! Just plug in your controller, switch on the device and watch as the corresponding lights illuminate in sync with your button presses. If not, you know what needs fixing – what a great diagnostic tool!
The Pocket Joystick Tester is the first product from BEZA Industries who are based in the United States of America. What a great start to a Tindie store – our love of retro games is still as strong today as it was in… well, a long time ago! Here’s a quick video of the unit in action – marvel at its pocket sized simplicity!
