atari 2600 controller port

[Skatepunk60]

anyone know what the technical name for this is and where at radioshack it can be found?

Are you just talking about the 9 Pin connector? (Where the controller plugs into?)

 

If so here is the information...

 

On the Atari board (Where the controllers plug in) They are called Right-angle D-sub connectors RS # RSU 11354370

 

Or if you are interested in the Joystick aspect here is that infomation as well (The Male connector is used to plug the controller into, for example a extension for the controller cord. The Female is used to plug into the Atari system or the extension for the controller cord.)--

 

Solder D-Sub Connectors - 9-position Female RS # 276-1538 9-position Male RS #276-1537

 

I have done a 15-Pin controller port modification to add the Atari console switches to the controllers. If your Interested Find out Here

I went there, and there doesn't seem to be anything there at all.

You just have to click on the links available on the page (Towards the bottom). There are the instructions online, or you can download them in ZIP format.

The proper name for it is:-

Multi control interface wonder plughole!

Those little pin things are actually flutes that the goblins who live in your joystick use to signal their directional desires to the throbbing Atari computer monkey.

You don't get the pins on Intellivision 1's as they work on an oboe/squirrel system.

Hope this helps
