Long before home arcades became a buzzword, the ASCII STICK brought that dream to the living room.
Built for the original Famicom, this solid joystick made every Gradius run, every Xevious sortie, and every Street Fighter imitation feel just a bit more heroic.

About this model (ASCII STICK Controller AS-2088-FC):
The ASCII STICK Controller AS-2088-FC is a classic arcade-style joystick for the Nintendo Famicom, featuring an 8-way stick, rapid-fire toggles, and a rugged build for precise inputs on shooters and action games.

A note from the curator

“This joystick was the great equalizer—suddenly, the living room was the arcade.
The click of its microswitches, the resistance of its stick… it turned casual gaming into performance art.
For anyone who remembers the sound of ‘coin-up’ echoing in their heart, this one’s for you.”
