You have an old atari joystick that does work using the same retronic firmware?  It would be odd for one to work and not the other since these joysticks should be electrically the same and very simple.

Yes, I have an older Atari joystick that works fine with it.  However, the Wico Boss, Flashback 2, and the Wico Atari Command Control do not.  I'll check out the new firmware when I get home and try again.

I just received my adapters today! Anyone have an idea about how to get 2600 paddles working on a MiSTer? Doesn't seem to be immediately obvious.

After you flash the retronic atari paddle firmware it should be recognised as a two button analog x/y stick.

Exactly.  Paddle 0 is mapped to X and Paddle 1 is mapped to Y.  You can verify this with a Windows machine under the joystick properties.

Thanks guys I couldn't get it to work properly yesterday but I admittedly didn't spend a huge amount of time on it. I'll hopefully be able to give it another shot tonight. Thanks again.

It will probably need some special mapping in your emulator. It’s natively supported in Stella as the author contacted me to have it properly integrated. ;)
