I wish there was a modern good graphics version with the same gameplay

There are many recreations of the old style Lunar Lander game available on the web. If you run Linux, then you can have your pick of quite a few. There are even those that are pretty much a borderline 'simulation' program such as Eagle Lander 3D...which is incredibly realistic.
I too was sucked into the original game to the extent that for my Mame rig, I don't want to contend with just pushbuttons for controlling the thrust. I actually want a dedicated thrust controller.
Do a Google/Yahoo search for "Lunar Lander" (or Moon Lander) game and see what comes up.
Hope that helps,
Geo

Today (May 11) I received a reply from Ram Control's to my E-Mail of February 1.
Dan J. stated that the Lunar Lander Controller's were in stock and would be shipped within 3 business days of placing an order.
So I immediately ordered a Lunar Lander Controller.
Stop laughing/crying! I paid by Credit Card (via PayPal). If I don't receive my order within 30 days, I'll simply reverse the charge.
I'll let you guys know how things go.

And this is the problem...
You will get it, as Dan has been doing good on orders, however, i think that purchasing anything from RAM Controls until all outstanding orders/monies have been delivered/paid back is morally wrong. You are just throwing fuel on the fire.
I personally know of 2 people that paid for 2 SW cabinets (to the order of over $5k). I can guarantee you that the money you just spent on the thruster is NOT going to them...
If people keep buying from RAM Controls... :angry: :censored:

You have to admit there is no one, no one at all, that offers his reproductions. It's not like what it is between Randy and Andy. Is Randy shafts me, I can go to Andy. If Andy gives me the shaft, I can go to Randy. If they both shaft me, I can go somewhere else. With RAM Controls, my only option is eBay and the less than perfect OEM parts.
RAM Controls can piss off 25%* of the customer base and still walk away with a profit.
*random number.

With Ebay you normally get what you paid for. With Ram Controls, well read the horror stories...
