Why Collect for the 5200?


Atari Scorpio

Meh. I'm unconvinced. It might be fun, and unique, to be able to use a trackball on all kinds of random games, but there is a reason that Galaxian* uses a stick in the arcade, and Breakout a spinner. :P

 

*Yes, I know that 5200 Galaxian takes advantage of an analog controller, unlike in the arcade.

well for me it's kind of an AAA game thing, there are certain games on the 5200 that are just so damn frakin' awesome that I -HAVE- have a 5200 to be able to play them. Like 5200 centipede with a trackball, which I prefer to the arcade, to ANY centipede type game ANYWHERE. (and the 5200 trackball itself, the BEST home trackball controller I've ever played with, buy a MILE.) and Space Dungeon and others. Im also fortunate enough to have the wico 5200 stick that uses the keypad and buttons from a regular 5200 controller so I don't have to suffer the normal sticks. (only use the normal sticks for space dungeon, which they work awesome for,)
