One armed Atari!

Recommended Posts

Having a huge game collection is really handy sometimes! Yesterday, I broke my left arm and I'm out of work for a few weeks (sucks) and I THOUGHT I'd be out of games too.. except maybe pac man...

 

However, I was forgetting the foot pedal controller I got from AA a few months ago ! :love: Haven't used it much up till now - but i am REALLY happy to have it now! For the stick, I'm using a Sega Genesis arcade stick, which has a nice wide base so I can operate it w/one hand. The footpedal takes care of the fire button, and I'm back playing Atari today !! 8)

Too bad Atari never released the mind controller. Then you wouldn't have to worry even if you broke both arms and legs.

The mind controller was not released because extended use gave players headaches. In addition, during one demonstration at a computer show, it slipped off the person who was demonstrating it and it broke.
