Kit Raspberry Sanwa joysticks / buttons

Product Description

This kit, consisting of Sanwa joysticks and standard arcade buttons, contains all the elements you need for a two-player configuration under Raspberry. You can choose the length of the rod of the joysticks according to your type of panel, wood or metal.

The SANWA JLF-TP-8YT joysticks in this kit are the reference for the arcade joystick. They are found on many Candy Cab (Japanese seating posts) as well as on high-end console stick. Screwable arcade buttons are professional and will ensure long hours of play.
They were found on our European borders.
A bundle of cable is included with the kit to connect joysticks and buttons directly to the RaspBerry's GPIO port.

This kit is a perfect mix between high-end joystick and standard buttons.
