#FightstickFriday My first stick. Young habits die hard

Posted this to forum which has above hashtag. You’ll see pics of a Colecovision Super Action Controller.

Pros:

  1. Better stick than the default mushroom stick.
  2. Ambidextrous.
    Cons:
  3. You’re going to need to be ambidextrous for a which because…
    1a You can’t play Tabletop. You’re carrying weight.
    1b. Arm asymmetry make different muscles hurt while holding it. Easy solution, next natural break in the action, switch arms.
  4. Button are a (insert cheapest female character in any game here) to maintain. I never had a joystick break except the Atari 2600s and 7800s, (the stick) Coleco Standards, (standards) and these. (Stick was cool. Buttons had to be disassembled to the core to sandpaper off gunk to “deep clean” it.

Thank You Edladdin for making a new Colecovision Super Action PCB for the fightsticks if today.

However, you can’t play roller games. (I got an idea. Will try in a couple of months.)
