Unijoysticle™ 2

Like the original Unijoysticle, but remove WiFi and add Bluetooth.

Unijoysticle 2 allows you to use modern Bluetooth gamepads, like Sony DualSense or   Nintendo Switch gamepads (among many others) in old computers like the Commodore 64 or Amiga. Mouse is also supported on the Amiga!

And of course, you can still use your unicycle to control your retro computer!

Supported retro computers

The Unijoysticle 2 was designed for Commodore 64/128, but anything that complies with the Atari DB9 pinout works. See this list: http://wiki.icomp.de/wiki/DB9-Joystick

Supported, but not limited to, computers:

Basic mode

One Bluetooth gamepad controls one joystick. You need two gamepads to control the two joysticks. The mappings are:

  • D-pad/joypad: controls up/down/left/right.
  • Button A: fire button
  • Button B: “up”  (ideal for platform games).
  • Button shoulder-right: autofire.
  • System button swaps between Joystick #1 and #2

Enhanced mode

When in “Enhanced mode”, you control the two joysticks with only one gamepad. The mappings are:

  • Left joypad / d-pad: control Joystick #2 movements.
  • Right joypad: control Joystick #1 movements.
  • Button A: fire for Joystick #2
  • Button B: fire for Joystick #1
  • Button Shoulder Left: auto-fire for Joystick #1
  • Button Shoulder Right : auto-fire for Joystick #2

This mode is ideal for games like Commando 2084, Commando or 1942 since it allows you throw grenades / roll by pressing Button B.

Mouse mode

[Feature only available in Unijoysticle 2 A500 model]

In Mouse mode you control the mouse from a gamepad.

  • Left or Right axis control the cursor movement
  • Button A / Cross: left button
  • Button B / Circle: right button
  • Button X / Square: middle button

Note: Mouse emulation only works on Atari ST / Amiga computers.
