The Mr. Video Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Hi, I had this joystick ever since I got my atari 2600 jr. off of ebay and I've been wondering if this joystick is a rarity. From what I can gather, the joystick is called the "Microblaster" and it's made by a company called "Replay". It has micro switches in it and it has a rapid fire switch on the bottom of it. I've tried multiple times to find another one of theses off of ebay but came up empty. Hopefully someone will know more about this thing then I do.

+save2600 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Never saw one myself, but there really are a ton of various 3rd party controllers for the 2600, C64, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOS Sard Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 There were lots of these around.. but a pretty good solid joystick all the same. This is more from the 8bit home micro era than the 2600 days, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mr. Video Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Thanks for the info! Judging from the pound sign, it was sold in the uk. which now makes me wonder how it got bundled with my NTSC atari jr. Unless it was also sold in the U.S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
