Hi Thomas! Hey, didn't ya see my post about the Atari joystick all in 1 from Avon a couple months back? Yep, it's the same one! I bought it a while back cuz it was too good to pass up. It has my all time fav, Adventure. I really like it, it's so compact and the picture is ten times better than the 2600 cuz it uses composite cables not RF. My only misgiving is it comes bundled with paddle games -- ever try playing Breakout or Pong with a joystick? Yikes. Wish they coulda stuck a 100M ohm pot (ie paddle) on the side for those games. Other than that its great.
I didn't see the Activision one before. That's so cool. Thanks for sharing!

You can use them in place of a mouse on an old Commodore 64, too! :) :)
