I bought 2 Competition Pro USB SL-6602 joysticks and unfortunately I found them too stiff to play properly with them. Hence I bought the more expensive Retro Adapter. Are there any non-stiff versions? |

Hi, I bought an USB joystick adapter from sinchai.de. But how do I configure VICE (or any other emulator) to recognize it?
Your help would be much appreciated. |

Here under Linux it is detected just fine as a usb device and I simply select "Analog Joystick" 0 or 1 for that matter.
To add to a resurrected thread and a question IMHO not really belonging here: I found the Speedlink Competition Pro USB version which I connected here much too slow. The no-name Playstation alike joypad is much faster on reactions. |

Yeah, works the same for Windows. Plug it in and start up VICE, go to joystick settings and find it in drop-down. |

yep, those idiots managed to configure the usb chip for the lowest polling rate it supports (50ms) |

It works now. There was a loose soldering joint probably.
Nothing beats a Suzo Arcade joystick with microswitches :-) (especially not the keyboard). |
