To help clarify a little, this is the first batch of addons.

 

Top Left - Breakout board - this is just for me, its a simple easy way to have access to all the pins on the expansion header.

 

Top Middle - VCS controller Adapter - connect VCS joysticks and paddles. Makes for a single byte read for paddle position, really fast.

 

Top Right - Gameport Adapter - Exactly the same as your PC gameport. With this you gain two analog joysticks, four buttons and a MIDI port.

 

Bottom Left - PS/2 Adapter - Connect two PS/2 devices to your 2600, mainly meant for keyboards and mice.

 

Bottom Middle - RS232 Adapter - Serial communications with your PC or another 2600, really any serial device.

 

Bottom Right - AtariVox Adapter - this allows the AtariVox to connect directly to a serial port and I2C port. This will let the homebrewers create better sounds and faster access to the AtariVox's eeprom.

 

 

More are on the way, like ethernet and USB. But for now this is more than we can handle until the cart gets finished.
