SlowCoder Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I had some great times the last couple of nights breaking in my roller controller on Centipede and Slither. Definitely a component worth having in your arsenal! I've heard the roller controller is supposed to work with most games on the CV. I tried playing a few games that use the standard joystick, and I found that when they work, they are generally somewhat sluggish. What non-RC games work well with the roller controller?

ColecoDan Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Some people told me timepilot was pretty cool using the roller controller but I have never actually tried it. Victory I think is meant to use with the roller controller. Omega Race was also meant for the roller controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph74 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Never did like victory... But I recall playing a ton of Pitstop with the roller controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I never played it with the Roller Controller, but WarGames seems to be a logical choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought WarGames was one that requires the roller controller. No, it is a hand controller game that uses almost every key on the keypad to switch between regions of the U.S. and your different defensive weapons. Spent a lot of hours playing this one.

If I remember correctly, you can use the Roller Controller in War Games in two-player mode. I believe it was mentioned in the game's manual, but I'm not 100% sure...
