2600 wireless remote joysticks

[berzerk]

This is my first post here. Thought I would just mention that I bought me a pair of mint remote control joysticks. I have never used them before and I played 4 or so games so far and they work great. Always heard that they don't work too well, but have had no problems so far. Maybe they wear out quickly or have to replace batteries often. Now if we could get playstation 2 or the such to get up to speed with some wireless controllers like these

I think the big beef with the remote control joysticks is that they are fairly uncomfortable in the hand. Mine work great, too.

 

Yeah, I can't imagine using them for any length of time. Given today's more efficient battery technology, I wonder how difficult it would be to turn a standard Atari joystick into a wireless stick. Not something I could do, but it would be interesting if it could be done without adding additional height to the base.

I have two sets for these controllers mint in there boxes, and I only used them one time and I thought that the controller was a little too big to hold on to for a long time so I just have them siting in my display case and use my regular controllers.

Don't know about the atari remote joysticks, but I some mad catz wireless for my playstation and they rock. You just have to make sure that you dont move the controls up or that the batteries do not get low.
