Cafeman 4,046 Posted June 5, 2023 Looks just like an acoustic guitar bridge string peg. Quote Link to comment
Nathan Strum 11,922 Posted June 5, 2023 Not Vectrex or Le Stick (mercifully ). Although size-wise it's pretty close to the Vectrex. I can't do a direct comparison though, since my Vectrex is off being overhauled. I'd be quite surprised if anyone actually guessed what this is for. Hoping within the next couple of weeks for the completely anti-climactic reveal. Quote Link to comment
x=usr(1536) 12,790 Posted June 7, 2023 It's the Atari CX78 Mushroom Replacement stick Serious guess, though: Emerson Arcadia and clones? Quote Link to comment
Nathan Strum 11,922 Posted June 7, 2023 Nope. Not the Arcadia. Nice obscure reference though! I suspect this isn't nearly as obscure, but since it's not exactly related to classic gaming (depending on your definition), it would be pretty unlikely for someone to figure it out. 1 Quote Link to comment
