RetroFrog LS-2: 9 Pin Retro Joystick

https://retrorgb.com/retrofrog-ls-2-9-pin-retro-joystick.html

Forget clunky old joysticks—RetroFrog’s LS-2 is the adult version of your childhood favorite. Priced at $100, this sleek, 9-pin beast isn’t just a joystick—it’s a retro gaming upgrade with attitude.

Built like a tank (brass inserts! high-grade PLA!), it packs premium Seimitsu LS-56 lever and Sanwa buttons—yes, those arcade-grade parts. Two big 30mm buttons? Both are Button 1, with a nifty rapid-fire toggle. The smaller 24mm button? It’s your Amiga Button 2… or, cleverly, it can switch to “Up as Jump” for games that never learned how to use two buttons. Genius.

And if you’re teaming up for Smash TV or Robotron, grab the $30 Twin Plate. Buy both sticks + plate? You get a $15 discount. Two-player chaos, sorted.

Works with everything from the C64 and Amiga to Atari 2600 and even ZX Spectrum (with a little help). Only hiccup? The Spectrum Next can’t do turbo fire—thanks, 5V shortage.

In short: if you’ve ever wished your retro rig had a joystick that looked this good and played better? This is it. No adapter needed. Just plug, play, and dominate.
