I mainly collect for the Sega Genesis and original Game Boy, but I also enjoy quite a few other systems more casually.

Skippy B. Coyote

This morning I discovered what may be the ultimate way to play the original arcade version of Missile Command on a home console, and it totally blew my mind when it actually worked: http://i.imgur.com/Uq3FMzK.jpg

  The arcade stick goes in controller port 1, the trackball goes in controller port 2, then configure Alpha, Delta, and Omega fire to L2, X, and O respectively. For the most arcade accurate trackball control set the mouse speed to 2 in the options menu. =)

  Oftentimes simple home setups can be superior ergonomically when compared against the arcade.

  I'm just really surprised that the game was willing to accept button inputs from an arcade stick plugged into the first controller port while still accepting the analog trackball control input from the second controller port. Apparently whoever programmed The Atari Collection 1 for the PS1 knew someone might try cobbling together a Missile Command control panel like this one day. lol
