The HORI Joystick-7 is an arcade game controller released by Hori in July 1985.

Made specifically for the Famicom, the Joystick-7 is the Hori's first arcade game controller. It has a 8-way digital joystick, 2 face buttons and 2 functional buttons. Located at the bottom side of the Joystick-7 is two toggle switches, one for changing the joystick settings between 4-way and 8-way, and the other one for switching between player 1 and player 2.

The upgraded model, the Joystick-7 Mark II, was released in March 1986. The Joystick Mk-II now has the turbo function with the speed rate up to 26.8 inputs-per-second.

Because they have the Famicom acccessory port., all Joystick-7 models requires a third-party adapter to be able to use on PC (See Adapters), and even then, they will acts as DirectInput devices, requiring the use of a third-party wrapper to play games that only support the XInput API.
