Still got my Amiga 500( well 1000 really), actually got 2 of them although one has a dodgy drive. Must have about 400 discs somewhere in the stash. I think one of my all time fav games was Wings

These were the best Amiga joysticks i ever bought, tough as a brick shit house, still got 4 of them. Think they were called Terminators but that may have been the name of the company that made them. Granted they look unwieldy and difficult to use (did take a few days to get used to) BUT the most responsive joystick i ever used. These have internal micro switches just like an arcade machine joystick. I've got a Wico bat handle still, never liked it, should have sold the bloody thing ages ago

Well I'll be damned, learn something every day. I'd never seen that one before but totally agree on the Wico bat handle - most overrated joystick of the period.

COOL, thanks for the link, more info than i thought may have been available. They were sold in Oz too
HOLY crap, 25-50 pound for used? i'm sitting on a gold mine I can understand why they didn't sell many considering the looks of them but also probably didn't get many repeat sales from users due to the fact they are so bloody tough. Mine had been dropped, possibly thrown drinks spilled on them and all other kinds of abuse possible, still came through without a care in the world. SO glad i kept hold of them......errmmm anyone wanna buy a Wico?
