What is the ArcadeR?
The ArcadeR is a joystick from RetroRadionics, designed for
classic computers that use the Atari 9-pin connector that was
popular from the late 70’s until the mid 90’s. It’s
built using
high quality arcade components; the stick is based on the
poplar Sanwa JLF and is compatible with after-market
accessories including restrictor gates, springs, actuators and
handles.
The ArcadeR features autofire on the primary fire button, and
the option to reconfigure the secondary fire button.

What’s in the box?
Included in every box will be:
•
ArcadeR joystick
•
Domed dust cover
•
Ball top
NOTE: Some ArcadeR’s may be shipped with a second restrictor gate. See the
F.A.Q. for more details
Setting up the ArcadeR
To set up the ArcadeR for the first time, place the domed dust
cover over the stick shaft and screw on the ball top. The dust
cover will freely move around
–
this is normal.
Holding the joystick shaft while turning the ball top finger tight
should be enough to keep it in place, however there is also a
slot cut into the bottom of the joystick shaft. You can use a
screwdriver to brace the stick shaft when fitting the ball,
enabling it to be tightened further.
This requires the removal of the three screws at the base of the
ArcadeR in order to open the case and gain access to the
bottom of the stick mechanism.
Using the ArcadeR (without modification)
Straight out of the box, the ArcadeR is designed to work with 8
and 16 bit computers that used a regular 9-pin Atari-style
joystick port.
This includes:
•
•

•
•

•
Amstrad
Atari 8-bit machines (VCS/2600, 400, 800, XL and XE series)
Atari 16-bit machines (ST, TT, Falcon)
Commodore 64 and 128
Commodore Amiga machines
MSX
ZX Spectrum

For some machines, only Button 1 may work. This depends on
both the machine in question (some only support a single fire
button) and the software being loaded.
Feature button 1 toggles autofire on the primary fire button.
Feature button 2 alternates the function of the secondary fire
button between Fire 2 and Fire 3 for systems that recognise
more than one fire button
The ArcadeR circuit board
There are currently two versions of the circuit board used in the
ArcadeR, version 1.5b and 1.5c. In some cases, making
modifications to your joystick may require making changes to
the circuit board itself. The pictures below show the location of
key parts of the ArcadeR board.
