accousticguitar Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Anyone interested in one of these? It has some wear but seems to work fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClassicGMR Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Awww... I used to HAVE one of these!!! I used it on my Atari 2600 way back when. Haven't seen one in about 22 years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jess Ragan Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Mind saying how much it cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Climber Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Also wondering the final price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accousticguitar Posted April 17, 2010 Author Share Posted April 17, 2010 I'll let Cebus field this one, if he so desires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cebus Capucinis Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Okay, as long as you don't mind, I paid $10 shipped for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicGMR Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Okay, as long as you don't mind, I paid $10 shipped for it. Very well worth the $10. I loved using this controller and it was surprisingly responsive(from what I remember 2 decades ago!). You'll enjoy that one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerG Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I have one of these for the Colecovision. Are there any specific games that it works well with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Recently one of my Youtube Subscribers sent me some surprise items, including a Colecovision Module # 1 and Suncom Joy Sensor for Colecovision. Needless to say I was very happy and pretty surprised how well it actually worked, took some getting use to but I really like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cebus Capucinis Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Cool! For some odd reason I really get attracted to the "strange" items in almost anything -- if it's standard, I might take a look, but if it's something incredibly weird and out-of-the-ordinary, I'm all over it. Does this thing basically work like a big D-pad or Intellivision Disc? You just touch the little spots on it and it moves like a joystick held in that direction?

Pretty much yes, you do not need to press too hard either, as I said it seems odd at first but you adjust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Okay, as long as you don't mind, I paid $10 shipped for it. Aroo! Expletive deleted! Man, that was a friggin' steal! I always wondered what these were like. Most retro controllers are crap (sorry guys, it's true) but it would have been nice to see one buck that trend with responsive control.

Cebus Capucinis Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 I have yet to use it! Received it in amazing condition as per usual. It's sitting on my coffee table in front of the Atari just waiting, but I've been so busy with the CGE Project that I haven't had time. I am amazed at how big the thing actually is, I figured it would be small Nintendo D-pad sized. Felt the sensor controller disc thing, feels like a very light touch will get it to move your character. Very cool little device! I am a sucker for Suncom joysticks, too, as a Slik Stik is my primary joy for 2600 gaming. Everything they made seems to be of high quality and easy to use!
