    Ive been playing some atari games on my pc and i thought it would be great to play with the real contoller or joystick.

    Anyone know if this can be done?, is there an adapter or something?

    Also im on the lookout for a playstation or snes adapter, are there any good deals?

    here is a good site that shows you how to connect your psx pad to your pc

    http://thaicool.hypermart.net/

    That would be better than an atari controll

    You can buy pre built adapters that are USB

    Probably the closest you'll get to an Atari joystick on a PC is something like this...

    Or if you really wanted to, you could try building one yourself...

    Yeah that thing looks pretty cool, but there's two things wrong with it.

    1. It only plays like 10 games. They could easily have included a slot to plug in additional cartridges, and these days they could probably fit like 100 of those old games on one cart the size of a postage stamp.

    2. Only one player (I think). They should have a port to daisy chain another joystick for two player games.
