ValkerieSilk Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 My stock controllers are overly sensitive for some games... Just wondering which 3rd party controller Colecovision fans recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youki Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I'd recommend modification of standard controller done by Yurkie (with the knob ball) , they are fantastic. If you like you can use also Megadrive/genesis pad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValkerieSilk Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 Sweet Thx... I'm saving my pennies for the full Yurkie mod for my secondary Colecovision system...

+grips03 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) I make a PCB that is a clone of the super action controller minus the roller / spinner thing. Its meant for DIY arcade controller builds. It supports 4 action buttons, keypad, and 8 direction joystick Edited February 3, 2014 by grips03 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixelboy Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Third-party controllers released back in the day were all pretty crappy. They had joysticks that were either too stiff or too loose, and the ones that had good joysticks and two fire buttons didn't feature a keypad. You're better off getting Yurkie's ball-knob mod.

ValkerieSilk Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 Possible late 2014 releases of this again. Anyone have feedback on this in terms of game play. Sure looks awesome... http://collectorvision.com/hard-arcadectrl.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValkerieSilk Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 oooo ... Where does one find that? A Fire Command II with a Champ Adapter ain't bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxpressed Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 oooo ... Where does one find that? Well, it's not easy. These are from back in the day and are rare as hen's teeth now, IMO. The Fire Command II and the Questar are two of the rarest sticks for the CV. Here's a link to a photo of the Questar from another thread on AA: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValkerieSilk Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 Found this by the same company... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Questar-Adjustable-Speed-Blaster-Auto-Fire-Module-/301053787399?pt=US_Video_Game_Controllers&hash=item4618343d07 Well, it's not easy.

grownup Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I hate the Colecovision's controllers. I dont even collect for the system just because I hate those so called joysticks so much. I should probably look for some 3rd part joysticks myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should or better yet get the Yurkie mdded Ball-Knob Controllers because the ColecoVision is a tremendous system to collect for with an even more tremendous Homebrew scene that's getting better and better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
