2600 paddle controllers?

[CrazyChris]

Would Atari 2600 paddle controllers work on the 5200?

Yes, but there are some extra things needed:

Looks cool and also funny, a little bit similar to my old bread-slicer on which i must crank to slice. *lol* I like some of your projects, also the adaptercable for arcade-joysticks you once built, which changes the directions, so that the player can turn the stick around and steer with the other hand. Cool, i really like those things and in former times i also often have changed things on controllers, to make a better handling with them for me!

 

And by the way, you look a little bit like Julian Assange in younger times, before his beard time.  ?

I've heard that about Julian Assange before- funny!

 

Glad you've enjoyed some of the controller projects. This particular one with the paddles was a fun one to put together.

Yes I can see the similarities.

Maybe I should do an episode having to do with Star Wars videogame Secrets Revealed and wear a Wookie mask until the very end and take off the mask then... and name the video "Wookieleaks"

 

...or not

I have the wild theory, that normally you don't look like Julian Assange, but this perfect mask you wearing in your videos which lets you look like him, is also one of your projects.    But a secret one, that neither the Russians nor the Americans should find out.
