    9 years after the last comment, I will add that I bought my 5200 new with Pac-Man as the pack-in and I loved it. No regrets on my end. But that 5200 Donkey Kong that I have since added to my collection would have ruined Coleco pretty quickly, in my opinion.

    I would have answered exactly this ^^^

    I am not currently enjoying 7800 Xevious on my 2600+. I find it difficult to play with the original joystick. I am hoping that I will like it better when my CX78+ Gamepad ships in!

    Today I bought XEVIOUS for the 7800 and ATLANTIS for the 2600 at the same store ^ . So my 2600+ will get a workout this evening.

    I never had MEGAMANIA back in the day but I bought it at a used game store here in Auburn on the cheap. Played it last night! I wish I was 12 again...

    I am not a tech guy, so if this question is too dumb to answer please ignore it. But could what you are asking/doing lead to this...

    It has taken two weeks to read the entire thread (incredibly slow wi-fi at work) but entirely worth it!

    Would you please post a video of gameplay (like Pacman) using the self-centering controller? And then maybe a game where self-centering is not crucial (like Centipede)?
  9. coachbrj
    For me, cost is not as big a factor as is the fact that the controller is SELF-CENTERING !!!! I love the feel of the OG controller and would absolutely pay the premium price for that specific modification.

    I'd be down for one!

    My menu driven multi-cart by Sean Kelly crashed pretty soon after I got it. Thank goodness for the Atarimax Ultimate SD Multi-Cart for Atari 5200!
  12. coachbrj
    Agreed. The best baseball game ever. And ultimate control with the 5200 joystick. I still play it.
  13. coachbrj
    I would love to have one as well. Thank you for the hard work!
  14. coachbrj
    I would trade my Ultimate in for a version with this on it!
  15. coachbrj
    I have not.

    I like my Maker Matrix controller. I haven't had a time when I thought it was crap. I have ordered a RetroGameBoyz 5200 joystick/arcade stick and am looking forward to using it.

    I am running Stella on my VCS in PC mode. I bought a Hyperkin Ranger and connected its 9 pin connector to a 9 pin to USB connector but it won't work. Any ideas on a good paddle controller for Stella? I really like the USB Hyperkin Trooper 2 for joystick games. It is nice and tight and responsive.

    CrossBow is the absolute best!! I highly recommend his services!!

    This is by no means comprehensive, but I have compiled several 5200 game manuals into one list. I have attached it here as a Word document and as a PDF file. Please add to this if you have some that I don't. I want to print this out and bind it together to keep beside my system as a handy-dandy reference. 5200 game manuals for printing all.pdf 5200 game manuals for printing all.docx

    I love the 5200 and would definitely consider a smaller one. Especially with HDMI output. However, I would want it smaller than you propose. Sort of the size of the NES Classic, and able to connect my original controllers.
  21. coachbrj
    That was easier. Thank you!
  22. coachbrj
    That did the trick. Thank you. Now I just have to go through 1000+ games and save a snapshot.
  23. coachbrj
    I am running STELLA on Windows 10 on my internally installed hard drive in a new Atari VCS. Most games will not show the snapshot. I have all the snapshots in the same location. What am I doing incorrectly?
  24. coachbrj
    I am running Windows 10 on my new VCS and this controller works flawlessly for all the games I've tried in STELLA. I really like it.

    I have pictures below of items I have that I would like to get rid of. EXCEPT, I'd like to have one of the controllers refurbished and one of the trackball controllers refurbished so I can play with them. All cartridges are unboxed. All games work, except for Defender and the Sean Kelly multi-cart. Instruction manuals are included for these games: super breakout, did dug, choplifter, centipede, pole position, qix, defender, galaxian, berzerk, space invaders, ms pac man, missile command, pac man, super cobra, star wars, pitfall, meteorites No manuals for these games: qbert, joust, star raiders, astro chase Assorted 5200 system manuals are pictured. Assorted keypad overlays are pictured. The box top is in very bad shape but the bottom is ok. None of the controllers work completely. Some start games and move characters but most all buttons do not work. The trackball controllers work but not completely (one will only go up but not side to side, the other has buttons that don't work). The Wico controller works well and comes with the Y adapter. The Competition Pro controller comes with the Y adaptor. It works but you have to really push up to get it to go up.
