Looking for a Precision Pro, or a Sidewinder 3D. Pretty much any Sidewinder with a gameport plug, bonus if it has gameport and a usb adapter both.

I'm actually looking for a joystick for the old Mechwarrior games and other old stuff. I just set up a DOS/Win9x box.

Is that the original Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro, or something else? How much would you want for it?

I have a regular MS Sidewinder flight stick and a same one in force feedback.

$5 for the regular, $15 for the force feedback one. Both use the gameport plug.

I also have a Hammerhead FX gamepad that uses the gameport plug, but it has a usb adapter with it. I'll sell that for $5 as well.

BTW, the usb adapter does not work with the Sidewinder sticks, in case you're wondering...

Hmm, I've got the original sidewinder gamepad pro, but its just usb. Oh and by the way Mechwarriors rock, its definitely easier to beat them on vet mode with a mouse, that gladiator championship in mw4 mercs is a roughin.

I'm more referring to Mechwarrior 2, never really thought much of the series since MS got involved. However I did just find a nice old joystick on ebay, so I'm not really interested in anything else, except that Force Feedback one, if it's a Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro, with the gameport plug, and not the newer model.

Yeah, it's the Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro with the gameport plug.
Comes with the power adapter and the box. I'll look for the driver cd but I'm not sure if I have it here. Although you should be able to download the drivers online.
