New 2600 controllers on EBay

[kiki77]

Does anybody know the new produced 2600 controllers which are sold on EBay? Has anybody tried one?

I am asking due to the quality and the handling.

 

EBay Link for Example

I have a pair of these, and have mixed feelings. They feel fairly solid and on the outside are nearly identical to the originals, however when you use them you can tell they aren't built the same on the inside and don't play nearly as well as an original controller. The diagonals feel off and when playing a quick game, you can tell they aren't up to par with real joysticks.

 

I suggest getting Best Electronics' new gold CX40 replacement boards instead to place inside old controllers as they play better and are cheaper. I bet they will hold up over time much better as well. Best Electronics also sells other replacement parts to fix up old controllers and make them look like new, such as new fire buttons and rubber joystick boots.
