Swaps both Commodore 64 control ports and adds a PS/2 mouse input compatible with 1351-aware software.

Sordan exposed a current Buy now control and says stocked items are ready to ship. The package includes a white 3D-printed case. The seller explicitly supports paddle controllers and says the circuit protects against static while controllers are changed, but does not publish a schematic, supported PS/2 protocol variants, USB-mouse compatibility, connector pinout, or hot-plug procedure.

Turns as many as two Atari-style digital joysticks or four paddles into USB input devices for a modern computer.

The repository supplies board fabrication files, a schematic, Arduino firmware, a bill of materials, and assembly guidance. A build needs an Arduino Pro Micro and the components selected for either the Atari-style or Sega configuration. Paddle mode is a JoyConverter firmware option selected while powering the adapter.

Swaps a Commodore computer's two control ports while preserving both digital joystick and analog mouse or paddle signals.

The surviving AmiBay production runs are closed sales archives. COREi64's former product route is currently replaced by a store-wide notice saying the shop will return in Fall 2026, so no current C8D order path is verified. The original C8D maker site also failed Tavily extraction twice after the required retry and is recorded as WF-050.

Connects a legacy analog PC game-port joystick or steering wheel to a Commodore 64 as paddles or a digital joystick.

Poly.play showed Jocopod available immediately at EUR 33 with a three- to ten-workday German delivery estimate on 2026-07-30. The optional 2.3-meter digital foot pedal was listed separately at EUR 15 but was out of stock; it is an accessory to Jocopod and remains folded into this record.

Swaps both Commodore 64 control ports at the press of a button without moving the connected controllers.

The no-case version showed four units in stock at EUR 32 on 2026-07-30. The listed range through EUR 42.90 includes the optional black 3D-printed case. A brass standoff supports the board while its illuminated button is pressed.

Standalone testers for checking vintage nine-pin joysticks and controllers without relying on a working retro computer.

AMI64 listed its encased tester at GBP 15 with a battery included on 2026-07-30. Commodore4ever listed its tester at a USD 9.99 sale price; a Micro-USB Type-B cable is not included. PCBWay retains the 2021 schematic, layout, bill of materials, and PCB ordering route under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0. These are related tester variants, not electrically identical revisions. Confirm connector gender, supported controls, and power source for the chosen unit.

Adds an Apple IIe-compatible mode with 128K RAM and Double Hi-Res graphics to the Apple III family.

JCM showed one fully assembled set in stock on 2026-07-24 and also listed kit and boards-only choices. No option includes rear-panel brackets. The card set requires the documented startup software and installation procedure, and the reproduced III+II board cannot be used by itself because original conversion changes are built into the other boards.

Adds push-button or controller-triggered port swapping plus four selectable autofire rates to a Commodore 64.

Tindie showed two units in stock at USD 34 on 2026-07-30. Remote swapping requires modifying a controller with two diodes and a button, or rewiring an existing button. Mouse operation is only an untested seller expectation; the documented analog support covers paddles, gamepads, and two-button joysticks.
