classicgamesnut Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Here's the newest addition to the MiniVex controller lineup for Vectrex. The MiniVex V features a steel case and an adjustable rapid fire feature for button #4, like the other models do. This one's got a LH mounted spinner control and a RH mounted analog paddle control. The spinner can be used with some homebrew games and an assortment of original Vectrex titles that have been modified for spinner use. It also doubles as an extra fire button, just push down on it. The paddle control can be used with the game "Hyperchase" in its original, unmodified Vectrex cartridge format, as well as Vectrace, Spike's Water Balloons, Vaboom, and a few other homebrew titles. There's also a switch that selects the X or Y axis for the paddle, which allows you to navigate menus on multi-carts AND crank up the thrusters on Moon Lander. All in all, a versatile package. Need additional info? Please post here or PM me. Larry 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Cade Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Larry, I saw a couple of these at VCF SouthEast (Rob Mitchell and another collector had some) and I had to say, your controllers are beautifully made. Great work! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
