Did you just say the side buttons on the Inty II are easier to press than the usual Inty controller on a 2609??? Dude I recently got an Inty II and the side buttons on those controllers are like pushing against CEMENT!!!!! They don't move AT ALL!!! I can't even push them in once... I'd have to be Lou Friggin Ferigno to move them even once. Maybe it's just this one set I have, but they are HORRIBLE!!!! I switched them out for Flashback controllers....... HUZZAH!!!!! Oh don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they're good controllers, but the side buttons seem to work a bit like the inty 2 number pad in that they don't have any give but they also don't need to be pressed hard or even 'pushed in' per se. They feel like they respond to simple pressure. They don't offer any user feedback - no nice click feeling to let you know you fired - but easier to hold down for long periods of time. Not that useful for most games but actually helpful for Worm Whomper! Of course I only know how my inty 2 controller seems to respond. Can't speak to how yours works if course!

jimblargh Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I should also say that I don't have an intellivision 1 but rather an inty 2 that I found some Sears super video arcade controllers for. I definitely prefer the Sears controllers for every other game I have played! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cparsley Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 INTV 2 controllers were good (side buttons that is) in the early 80s when the console was first released, but yes they DID NOT AGE WELL. I agree with Thor or Incredible Hulk levels of grip to push them in 2022 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
