New and factory boxed XE-1ST2 Joystick for the MegaDrive which is, in our opinion, one of the best sticks for the old school systems. We've kept a few of these sticks in our private collection and we have specific models for the PC-Engine, the Famicom, and the MegaDrive.

Today's sale is for the MegaDrive version which is also compatible with the Sega Mark II, Mark III (Master System), FM-Towns, PC-8801, MSX Systems, and the Sharp X68000. The connector is the standard Genesis plug and a little switch on the top of the controller allows gamers to toggle between Sega series consoles and computers. The buttons are mounted on a circular platform which may be rotated 270° into different orientations and the joystick uses 4 or 8-way micro-switches (selectable). The joystick is also small when compared to a gargantuan piece of hardware like the Hori Real Arcade Pro 3. The XE-1ST2 measures a mere 7.80 x 5.40 x 1.5" in dimension and weighs about 2 lbs.
