Hi, I'm looking at getting a GP2X, and I would like to know if it is possible to attach an old style arcade joystick and keyboard via a USB hub to it for a bit of spectrum/amiga emulation....

If so, can anyone recommend me a joystick to match the trusty competition pro I had in my Amiga days??

Cheers to everyone reading this!

It's not in stock, but it looks like it might be worth waiting on.

I have no idea if it works or not (I can't see why it shouldn't) but I came across this the other day. Brough back some fond memories too!

Very nice, but these days that joystick looks more like something I'd buy the missus... oh how the years have flown! Thanks guys for the info, although I take it I *can* use a USB joystick and keyboard with the GP2X, then?

Cheers,

Yes provided you buy the cradle for it (readily available). Google it.

I actually use these with authentic SNES pads with the cradle, and they work great!
