7800 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Just got a Heavy Sixer and 2 CX-10s with it. I had to open them up and clean the connections on the board and some routine cleaning... No big deal, they clearly weren't used for years. I even went underneath the button domes, well they aren't really domes but... and tried to scrape them a little with a small knife... just to get a little oxidation off for a better contact. After getting them to work, I played a few games with them. I kinda like them. The springy joystick takes some getting used to but... not bad. The fire button is very springy too but I'm ok with that. All in all, I prefer the CX-10s over the CX-40s. My favorite version of this joystick is Syzygy Company's USB Classic 2. If Curt made the same joystick wired for the 2600, It would be my definitive stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitanClassic Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 While I never used the stick for the VCS, it was my prefered stick on the Atari 800 computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 CX-10 over CX-40 all day long. Springs FTW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
