    Great stick .. Microswitched and steel shaft

Now I know the C64 Mini joystick is bad but not sure what some are reviewing here ?Its a bit clicky at the moment ( that will wear in ) but overall comparing with an original I have here its really goodWorks well with Emulation … Personally i think I got a bargain :)

    Disgrace to a legend!
  

*by B***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 April 2010*

As a self confessed retro gamer I was jumping for joy when I saw that the competition pro had been released as a USB model. As a proud owner of the original and many other joysticks and pads around the golden era of gaming of 1988-94 I ordered this tasty bite of nostalgia immediately for use with my Amiga Winuae emulator.What a ghastly mistake!This joystick may look the part but it is nowhere near the quality of the original. The build design is light and feels tacky unlike the chunky weightiness of the original. I instantly noticed the difference in the button feel, even after 20 odd years, feeling like they were made out of the thinnest, wobbliest plastic the manufacturers could find.Add to this that the left, round button did not work, despite all buttons being set to the same action and the response time of the stick itself to the game was shoddy and slow to say the least.This is a fantastic idea but an truly awful product and a complete disgrace to the legendary status of the original Competition Pro.I re-boxed this thing the day I got it and plan on returning it as soon as possible.Don't be fooled, this is not the Competition Pro, it is a cheap, faulty, nasty copy. You would be better off buying a second hand version of the original and buy a "Retroport" which will allow you to plug old joysticks into your PC to play old games.Utterly offensive.

    Quality its not.
  

*by M***1 on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 January 2019*

Ok the internals of the plastic feel too brittle the main fire buttons can stay pushed down due to plastic burrs and what with the design I don't think they are fixable and the microswitches are very cheap the actual button of the switch can move left and right which can make diagonal a touch awkward the fire buttons are mapped separately so each can do a different function, well what a shame looked the part!Although on playing retro titles (amiga c64)  it does the job better than a joypad giving a more authentic retro feel.
