Get Your Game on with Old-skool, New-tek Atari 2600 Style Joystick

Most us that remember and love the Atari 2600 gaming system revere, but may not adore, its iconic joystick. Suffering several disfiguring side effects of said joystick myself, newer and more ergo devices come home with me far more often than they should. Reflex Audio returns this venerable device to us with an new un-paintjob and a blue LED glow to set it apart. Black plastic and orange buttons have been replaced with clear acrylic. Listen to Kajagoogoo, do the Safety Dance and play your favorite yesteryear games like Tennis and Combat - the good ole days when there were so few video games they didn't need to have flashy long indecipherable titles like Super Karate Monkey Death Car 3: GOTY edition. Adventure, that was a name that said it all.
DIY-ers will swoon over the controller chip inside the Joystick chassis. This chip can be the brains behind a MAME cabinet's controller panel. All powered by USB with drivers for PC and Mac, both camps can enjoy classic emulation and nostalgia at the same time. $29.95 gets you the crystal joystick a CD containing a greatest hits collection of Atari Roms and an emulator.
