left hand joystick converter?

[Andrewlcox]

Does anyone sell or make a converter cord for and Atari CX40 joystick that makes the joystick left handed? I thought Best Electronics used to sell one?

 

Thanks,

It's pretty easy to do this inside the joystick, no soldering required.

I guess I just swap the wies around and make it a left handed joystick semi-permanately.

Better yet, get a TAC 2 joystick, as it has buttons on both sides of the stick, AND it's one of the best joysticks ever made!

It always seemed like the 2600 joystick was one of the most lefty friendly. I like having the button on the left side because I can fire much faster with my left hand. I've never thought about turning the controller around before. This intrigues me.
