 |  Re: Compatible Gamepads
Dear Baz,
Juts recently I found during arcade gameplay, that compared to the Xbox360 controllers my old Quickshot-II joysticks are less efficient, I can say slower. When I saw you recent collection, this question popped up, what the "real" gamers use for Plus/4 ?
Your hint is great on the new Atari gamepads.
Especially, as they say: "• Safe for Commodore 64 - follows original Atari 2600 configuration will not damage your SID chip".
So it seems the not proper joysticks do NOT damage only the TED, but also SID chip (that also handles the joystick, with a little more protection). So they may also work.
The only issue here is the price, especially the shipping cost to EU. The landing price will be ~55USD, and that is not cheap at all (though I agree looks to be a superb device).
