  1. I don't know if Ben or anyone here has used the Best Electronics CX 40 but I find that to be the best compromise between microswitches and the dome type. I would buy a microswitch CX40 from Atari in a heartbeat. The Atari CX 40 form factor is great.
  2. Maybe I should get with the times and try wireless. It would be nice to get away from the birds nest. The competition pro was relaunched in recent years. I never tried the new one but I'm a fan of the old. There are many fan made micro switch joysticks. Yours has a nice form factor.
  3. I've always enjoyed using Stella. It's great. Never have played a paddle game on it, so I don't know what that is like.
  4. The microswitch idea is cool. Reminds me of the old competition pro! Not so much a wireless guy, but cool nonetheless.

    The Paddles

    Best Electronics it is, then.
  6. I would look for a six switch because of the switch placements and because the RF output might be better.

    The Paddles

    This guy uses them with a 2600 and they looked great. Seeing your experience is making me think I should just get some paddles from Best electronics.
  8. Until the 2600+ becomes 100% usable, I'm sticking with Stella and OG hardware. If I didn't have that option, R77.
  9. 1, 2, 6, 10 and 15 are beautiful

    The Paddles

    From all accounts, the new paddles are a revelation when used an original Atari. Has anyone here picked them up to play on an original system?
  11. I would be game for this, but the R&D seemed to be a bit behind. I will get an Atari+ if it ever becomes a true plug & play solution, until then the original 2600 is fine.
  12. I just got my first Heavy Sixer. It's a Sears Tele-Games. I didn't grow up with the Tele-Games but the picture quality looked great in a test. I have a few light sixers, a modded Vader and a really nice 4-switch woody. Here is the serial #
  13. Tim is a great guy. He signed my Anguna! I wish him the best and he's going to do a great job!
  14. I'd buy the Pong T-Shirt. I also like the Missile Command puzzle. Canada doesn't get much merch so perhaps I find it more novel.
