   Feb 17, 2024 · Glorkbot. I haven’t tried it but I found this for you: “Making a 43-year-old video game controller work with the Switch was relatively easy using two different adapters: the $30 Genesis/SMS/Atari controller adapter from Raphnet that allows the Atari CX10 to connect to the Nintendo Gamecube and Wii, and 8BitDo’s $20 GBros. Wireless Adapter ...

   Interestingly, I remember owning the Atari 2600 remote control as a child. Given that the hardware uses the same DB9 connector, I’m curious if anyone has tried using the old wireless controller with the new hardware. I’m considering purchasing this item on eBay: ‘Atari 2600 Remote Control Wireless Joysticks Controllers Box Included ...

   Mar 15, 2024 · Got a couple of prototypes made to play around with. Two wireless CX40+ Joysticks, one identical to CX40+ internally save for an internal battery and no wire and the other with internals redesigned to have microswitches instead of the elastomer pads. Both are great. The wireless CX40+ really is super convenient for obvious reasons and the ...

   May 8, 2019 · Hands down the best joystick I have ever used for an Atari is the original controller in the very earliest Atari 2600 units. That later cost-cutting joysticks we are all familiar with pale in comparison. Atari should have never did away with these sticks. They are so much easier on your hands.

   How does the Atari 2600+ work?

   • The Atari 2600+ is an oddball. Inside is a small board, most of which is dedicated to connectivity. The main PCB is a tiny Pi-ish thing. Every time you plug in a cart, the console dumps the ROM and squirts it to an emulator. This takes five to ten seconds, in stark contrast to the immediacy of the original 1970s console.

   Is the Atari 2600 a good joystick?

   • This joystick is as basic, stiff, unforgiving and bare-bones as I remembered. However, it is authentic, responsive and well suited to Atari 2600 games. The lead is a bit longer than the original, but still only 1.5m (about 60in).

   Who is this Atari 2600 & 7800 console for?

   • This console is for existing or wannabe collectors of Atari 2600 and/or 7800 cartridges, who want a hassle-free way to play them on a modern TV. And possibly analogue fetishists, who want to flick buttons and switches, and are offended by digital downloads, user-friendly menus, and wireless controllers.

   Is the Atari 2600 a good console?

   • Still, it's a fantastic handheld, and a must-have for any avid Atari collector. It almost feels redundant to justify the 2600's placement as one of Atari's better consoles, or even as one of the greatest consoles in the history of gaming. It's the system that was in the house of every child in the late-70s and early-80s throughout the world.
