what kind of joystick is this?

[Tr3vor]

I have searched the internet and looked here at Atari Age for information about joysticks. the only ones that i know of are the ones with the orange paint with the"TOP" sign on it, and the one that is completely black with no "TOP". mine is some sort of hybrid of it.

 

what kind is this and what kind of atari did it come with?

 

I really have no clue what it is.

Well, I really can't see it very well but the Heavy Sixer sticks are like that. The paint rubs off really easily on them too.

mabe the person who owned this before me switched joysticks, because i have a light sixer.

Does it have a springy feel to it?

Does it have a springy feel to it?

 

no... its rather stiff.

Well, If it has "TOP" on it then it is not a Heavy Sixer stick. I guess I must jhave misunderstood your first post. It probably just has the paint rubbed off of it.

so its just a regular joystick with rubbed off paint?

Either that or they are Vader sticks.

I want to dig mine out but I am pretty sure it has "TOP" on it. I'll have to dig and find out now. You got me curious now.

I think the 2600 Jr. sticks were all black, too.

Pretty sure the Vadar sticks had top on them. The only sticks not to have this were the Heavy Sixers.
