    Sorry, no new pictures for you, just some info.

     

    First, on 2600joypage1, you have "Champ" by Championship Electronics, but then on 2600joypage4 what appears to be the same stick is listed as "The Champ".

     

    Also on 2600joypage1, you have several color variations under the name "Competition Pro" with no number. This was originally the Competition Pro 5000, but was very recently reproduced, dropping the "5000" number. The vintage and new models are pretty much impossible to tell apart from a picture, so IMO you should make some mention of the original model name. Also, the original maker was Coin Controls.

     

    Next, on 2600joypage2, "Le Stick" was not made by "Mercury" as you have listed; it used a mercury switch to sense the angle it was held at. As your box photos show, it was branded as by DataSoft Inc.

     

    You have the Slik Stik listed as "Slick Stick" (the actual name has no C's).

     

    From 2600joypage3, the PowerStick by Amiga was also sold under a different name and brand (which I can't remember at the moment).

     

    Also on 2600joypage3, you have listed a bogus name, "Spitfire Gun Controller" by Milton Bradley. The actual name of the controller, "Flight Commander", is printed on the box shown in the photo.

     

    Finally, on 2600joypage4, "Unknown #3" is actually two different models in the Competition Pro series. I believe the top two images are the Competition Pro 1000. The other two are the Competition Pro 3000; in the last image the pistol grip stick is simply turned around backwards (you should remove this pic or photoshop it to show the handle the right way around).

     

    Got these ones changed, thank you.

    Is Waterworld really a R9? I know for a fact there were tons of those in the toy stores in SI, NY in 1985. I bought one (probably in Kay Bee or Toys R Us, the two main stores I got 2600 games in at the time) that I still have to this day.

     

    I thought Waterworld was only available through the Atari club.
