 Joystick wanted !

My joystick is broken and I am in urgent need of a replacement - preferably a new one.
I am willing to pay a fair price.
I need a single button joystick with an 8-pin mini-DIN socket connection.
Can anyone help ?

 If you can get hold of an adapter......

Cut off the conection 1/2 end of your broken joystick and wire it to the new (C64, Amiga) type ended one.

I use a Sega Megadrive 6 button pad on my Plus4. It's been fine for years. "B" if the normal fire button.

 Adapter and 9 pin joystick?

Here's a 9 to 8 pin joystick adapter on Ebay UK:

You can use this to hook an Atari/Spectrum/C64-style joystick to the Plus/4. The 9 pin joysticks are in much more ample supply, and much cheaper than a 1341 or clone.
