Lord Helmet Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Would it be possible to make a Redemption style adapter that would function with a 2600 trak ball controller? The 5200 trak ball is a little pricey for some people, and the 2600 version can be had for cheap. Of course after buing an adapter, it might end up being just as expensive.

Albert Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 There are really only three games that were meant for the Trak-Ball controller: - Centipede - Millipede - Missile Command There are a few other games that work with it, but overall given the limited number of games that could take advantage of such a device, I don't know that it'd be worthwhile to produce. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Helmet Posted November 16, 2006 Author Share Posted November 16, 2006 That's kind of what I figured. This was more of just an idea I have been kicking around to do myself. I hadn't gotten around to actually cracking open any hardware yet though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Just use the 2600 trackball in joystick mode threw the redemption adaptor if that is what your looking to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Helmet Posted November 16, 2006 Author Share Posted November 16, 2006 Yeah, that would work, but I was looking for true analog support. I may just have to find a 5200 trakball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
