Leonard Smith Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Can you clarify - Is the Switchbox included or not? Everything included to plug in and play right out of the box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This does have everything needed to plug in and play. Edited July 17, 2022 by fred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Smith Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 I really hope someone buys this as I have been so close to pulling the trigger, even though I really don't need a 5200 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a good starter collection. This is my 3rd 5200. I don’t need three. Haha I just bought it because it came with this crazy custom controller I wanted to check out Edited July 17, 2022 by fred 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osgeld Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 150 for a nice 5200 starter kit is not unreasonable in my mind at the moment we live in, I sold a 4 port model with a jank box, functional but used controllers and Ms Pacman for 75 like a decade ago 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All buttons work and joystick work. I got my highest score ever on River Raid. The taller controller is awesome for Defender. The top button is to shoot, the button on the trigger is for the bomb. When I saw this weird, custom, vintage controller I had to have it. Someone must've loved the 5200 back in the day and put a lot of effort making a controller that works for the system and still works great to this day. I should probably post this in the 5200 forum... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
