"MiniVex Alpha" controller for 2600 / 7800, Omega Race mode

[classicgamesnut]

New controller for the Atari 2600 / VCS and 7800 systems, largely inspired by community suggestions, thank you to all who offered input. Comes in a steel case like the other MiniVex controllers. This one's a little guy, but very versatile. Has an A / B button pair on the left and right sides of the case, and the A / B buttons can be shuffled between the top and back to your liking with one of the toggle switches on the back. Joystick is digital but has the smooth feel of an analog stick. Flip the other toggle switch and enter the "Omega Race" mode, where you can finally play that Atari 2600 cartridge again after losing or breaking your Booster Grip years ago. An LED lights up to let you know when this mode is active.

I've received a question about the button configuration on the Alpha. The following illustrations show how the A / B pairs are set up.
