Moving the buttons in Roller Controller was a really good design decision. Would've been very difficult to use in the position on the earlier prototypes. Appears like they really tried to make it work with the earlier prototypes and then finally gave in to having the buttons in the middle. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

Instead of using the expansion port for power, could you do what was done for the Roller Controller? Roller Controller had a cable that plugged in the back of the Colecovision, between the system and the power supply cord. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

I remember Spiderman had a pretty good tune, I don't remember any music in Superman. It's close, but I think Spider-Man is better. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

That's exactly right. Happened to my sixer back in the day because I was fascinated by the weird effects of frying. Broke the power switch so had to take it to an authorized Atari repair shop. I don't recall anything that good ever coming from frying. I can't remember even playing a game for very long in a fried state. Sometimes the system would just make a weird sound. Still, I was a kid, so I fried frequently anyway just to see what would happen. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

Unfortunately, I have not heard of this particular adapter. But I have used the 2600-dapter with Stella and that works great. I have not experienced any delays with it, feels just as responsive as the real 2600 to me. http://www.2600-daptor.com Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

NIAD, I've been trying to track down a hacked Turbo ROM for awhile with out much luck. I didn't see it on CV Addict, Destructor is the only driving game hack I can find there. Has anyone found these hacks recently?

Aye yie yie, Space Shuttle was complicated and got harder at the higher levels. After each time you docked, it would get much harder to dock the next time (meaning you use more fuel)! Brutally hard after a few attempts and you'd have the pressure of using up too much fuel and not having enough for landing. But it was rewarding to bring the bird home with a perfect landing and a little fuel to spare.

What games are good to use with the Trak-Ball? I just tried Activision's Skiing with the TB and it was pretty fun. Decathalon was good. You barely have to move the ball and can get great scores.
