Play with a 2-buttons joystick

Here's a small mod I did this week-end to be able to play Turrican and Turrican 2 with a two-buttons joystick instead of the main button + spacebar.

I had it in mind 30 years ago but never made until now :p

(skip to 8:15 to see a lot of secondary weapons action)

I'd been wanting to wire up a Jaguar pad to 9-pin adapter. Oh look the select button has it's own pin that could work as second fire.
Well now it's wired to work as a standard joystick, I've got a wire spare connect to select output and just need to solder it to a second db9 connect and it should work, even if in a slightly less ergonomic manner.
