Atari Master Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 I can't play PAC-MAN with it.So i'm gonna opean it up and do a test. Wile the Joystick is open i'm going to use the joysticks red button to tutch the metal things to see if it goes in that direction. If it dosent it either means that the joysticks metal things are fryed or my 7800 is broken. Would this possibly work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Pac-Man doesn't go in the direction you pressed the "switch" is bad. If it does work then prehaps your Joystick handle is cracked, check to make sure. You can order replacement parts at Best Electronics. If you can't repair and plan to throw it out I am more than happy to take it for parts, e-mail me. Or you could order a new custom controller from me at my website Junies Creations, if your interested. Good Luck on getting the Joystick back to new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
