finding unbroken ones on e-bay is simple. You could always pick up a Flashback 2. The sticks that come with it are a bit sturdier and fit in the 2600. |

--- Quote from: GAtekwriter on November 07, 2007, 10:32:48 am ---I guess I could, but I want to keep the cabinet "untangled" - I broke about 3 or 4 of those joysticks during my early years and I wasn't that impressed with their sturdiness. Yes, I was probably a little hard on them, but all kids are. I'd prefer to use my cab joysticks which I think will stand up to a bit more punishment. --- End quote --- Check out the forums at http://www.atariage.com/ - they've typically got NOS/used/rebuilt joysticks posted FS/T. And I know of at least one fellow there that can do excellent rebuilds and repair. Nothing quite like the original... |

I even have a pair of the wireless sticks for it although they don't really work all that great IMO. Yars Revenge tends to get played alot. And who can forget the 2600 version of Pac-Man. :P |
