I had one of these with my Amiga, favourite joystick ever.

What’s megadrive about them? Is the pinout different?

My friend had one as well for the Amiga back in the day, but being left-handed I was never a fan.

I had a very similar one for my MSX :)

I had one of those for my Atari ST. Surprisingly comfortable and very strong too. That was a great joystick.

Those joysticks were very popular in the late 80's for the Amiga (Atari standard plug). Very high quality switches and good accurate control.

I had a C16 variant. There were few joysticks with the C16's DIN plug on them.
