Tag: mouse adapter

Translates a PS/2 mouse into Commodore 1351-style analog mouse signals for the C64 and C128.

Retro Computer Store listed an assembled adapter as available for USD 16 on 2026-07-30. PCBWay exposes a through-hole fabrication route with Gerbers, a bill of materials, and programming notes. The current assembled version supports PS/2 mice and PS/2-compatible serial mice but explicitly does not support a USB mouse through a passive PS/2 adapter. A working SID analog-input path is required; some replacement SID implementations omit it.

Connects a PS/2 mouse to Commodore, Amiga, Atari ST, and Atari 8-bit computers with host-specific mouse, joystick, paddle, and tablet modes.

The official shop listed immediate delivery from EUR 34.07 on 2026-07-30. Protovision listed five units from EUR 38, with the slim connector costing EUR 3 more. The slim version fits every supported computer; the wider screw-in version has documented clearance exclusions including the Amiga 600 and Atari 1200XL. A USB mouse works only if the mouse itself supports the PS/2 protocol through a passive adapter.

Converts a PS/2 mouse into Atari 8-bit or Atari ST quadrature mouse signals.

The maker publishes beta firmware, source, a pinout, and programming files but not a finished adapter PCB on this page. A build requires a programmed PIC16F1847 and suitable wiring or an enclosure. For an internal installation, connect behind the computer's in-line joystick resistors so a plugged-in joystick cannot directly short the PIC outputs. USB mice work only when they also implement the PS/2 protocol.

Hosts USB HID mice, keyboards, joysticks, and gamepads on classic Amigas, with more limited C64 and Atari ST modes.

Amiga Shop listed Rys MKII in stock at EUR 44.95 with a 3-4 day shipping estimate on 2026-07-30; AMIGAstore separately listed EUR 31.95 but out of stock with restock T.B.A. Retro 7-bit publishes current Amiga firmware 0.16, manual 1.5, Windows flashing software, and RysWheel installers. Seller claims conflict about wireless mice, so buyers should assume a wired supported HID device unless Retro 7-bit confirms a specific receiver.

Connects a PS/2-compatible mouse to an Atari 8-bit or Atari ST-family computer.

Both storefront collections marked their matching adapter sold out on 2026-07-24. A USB mouse works only if it also supports the PS/2 protocol and is used with a suitable passive USB-to-PS/2 adapter.

Adapts a USB mouse or digital USB joypad to supported Amiga, Atari ST and STE, or Commodore 64 GEOS mouse ports.

The product page exposed a login-or-register-to-buy path on 2026-07-27. Only digital joypad input is supported; analog controls are not. TIKUS is distinct from the visually similar, non-upgradable Tank Mouse Kickstarter adapter. The revision sold since 2026-03-24 adds stored per-axis sensitivity configuration for Amiga and Atari mouse modes.

Connects USB HID mice, keyboards, joysticks, and gamepads to Commodore, Amiga, and Atari ST-family control ports.

Sordan hosts current Rev3 and Micro Tom pages and a Rev3 manual, but neither product page exposed a price, stock value, or product-specific cart route on 2026-07-30. AMI64 listed TOM 2+ at GBP 40 but out of stock. TOM+ and TOM Rev2 are retained as older variants rather than presumed current products. USB peripherals may be hot-plugged, but the DB9 adapter must be connected only while the old computer is powered off. Device compatibility is not universal.

Connects modern Bluetooth gamepads and, on selected models, mice to Commodore, Amiga, and Atari computers.

The official C64, A500, and 800XL Tindie pages were out of stock on 2026-07-30, although the project marks those models active and supported. CBMretro had equivalent cased C64/C128 and A500/A1200 hardware available at EUR 41.90; the original designer does not support third-party builds. Open hardware, firmware, and documentation remain available. The guide's original Unijoysticle tile is folded here as the retired WiFi predecessor: it needed a separately powered ESP8266 receiver and phone or desktop client, unlike the Bluetooth successor.
