Dan Iacovelli Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 I assume that your asking about the atari 2600 wireless controllers. I wouldn't recomend them because you need battery power on both of the joysticks to work . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaggy the Atarian Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 I have a pair of those and while I do like them, they are rather bulky and of course require the battery. To be honest, and I'm not sure if I'm the only one who feels this but, it feels really weird to be playing a 2600 with a wireless controller. I guess it's because I'm so used to the really short cords on the regular joysticks. But if you want to sit a little farther from your TV then the wireless joysticks are good.

Lord Thag Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 That, and they really make good conversation pieces. Everyone I show them to laughs 'cuz they're so huge and ridiculous. Oh, and they play ok too. Be warned though, the battery life is only 3 hours or so, so don't plan on any marathon sessions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
