What controller do you consider better than the Wico?

Nobody else uses the Wico joystick? I’m surprised, it was Avery popular controller back in the day. i never knew they made a separate number pad for it...

Does anyone use the Wico 5200 controller anymore with their 5200? To use it you need the Y cable that it came with and through the years I lost mine. I posted in wanted that I was looking for replacements and never got a response. So that got me wondering if anyone else even used these controllers anymore....

It's not just with Atari 5200 games IMO. I'm sadly in the same situation with a much larger classic game collection. I need to create some room in my place so I should get rid of my entire collection but while I spent a lot of money and time getting it all, it will most likely end up in the dumpster.

Sorry for posting in the wrong place. Nobody makes replacement cables? I’m kind of surprised...

Does anyone have any Y Cables for the Wico Controller for the Atari 5200 for sale? Or does anyone know of someone who makes new ones for these controllers that are for sale? Thanks

It finally came back online. Thanks

Is this Hyperspin forum down?

What emulator and ROMs did you use? i can’t get the Atari Lynx emulation working on my MAME cabinet

I am trying to get the Mednafen emulator running for the Atari Lynx. But it keeps saying I am missing the ips file. What is that and where do I get them?

How about fixing the sounds in Gorf and other games that you completely messed up rather than this useless crap?

I haven’t overcome emulation overload. I’m in the same boat as you. I sometimes think I spend more time updating and configuring emulators than playing games....

I updated to the latest versions of Mess and Messui and I cant get either to load any of the games for Vectrex or Colecovision. It loads my Genesis games fine, of course since I dont use Mess for that. Did something change with Mess or have I lost my mind?

Well to me playing a 5200 or a Colecovision or a Intellivision without using the original controllers is just not worth even doing. To each his own I guess...
