Wired Programmable Interface?
I had this thing that was a programmable joystick interface, but rather than programme it with software you had to plug in a load of wires!!
It plugged into the back of the Speccy, then you had to connect all these wires (one for each joystick action) into a hole for the relevent key.
Quite fiddly (bit like knitting!) but it was good because it allowed you to have two seperate fire button actions (if you had a joystick with two unique fire buttons, which I did), for exampe I used to set up button one for lasers, button two for missles, that kind of thing.
Anyone know what it was called and who made it?
Its in my dads loft somewhere!!
