devils advocate Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Hi Guys, Just wondering what these epyx controllers are worth, If anything. And they are for the 5200 right? Got them in atrade this week and have no use for them. They look clean. Thanks !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devils advocate Posted August 27, 2006 Author Share Posted August 27, 2006 Well, now I'm not sure if it's for the 5200 or coleco. Any ideas?? regular looking 9 pin with two cables out, one leading to the stick(which has auto centering, or non auto centering from the top switch and a center adjust button), and one leading to a little 16 pin adapter.

MrRetroGamer Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I can't say for sure what system this is for but with that connector, it is most likely not for either system you mentioned, 5200 or Coleco. Maybe the Apple II? The Epyx sitck is a nice little stick, but I've never see that configuration before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the Apple II? The Epyx sitck is a nice little stick, but I've never see that configuration before. After more research, I'm almost sure it's for the apple series. there is three models, some take the 16 pin, others take the 9 pin. This seemingly would work on both. I've never seen a stick like this. Odd little find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost Rice Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 (edited) I got mine for less than $10 on ebay. Its a PC/Apple 2 joystick. The PC connection is just a converter from the Apple 2 joystick to PC game port. It looks like you are missing that part.

rjchamp3 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 If your gonna try for atari 5200 stuff go to best electroncs.com They are atari experts and the new lifetime rebuilt 5200 controllers are better then new ones, they also sell upgraded 2600 as well.

ziggystar Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Speaking of these, I am VERY Interested in gettin gmy hands on some 500Xjs. Those are standard 9 pin for 2600/Sega/Amiga but have Autofire built-in. I'd pay pretty well for a good one of those. PM Me. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
