 Keyboard or Joystick

When I first got my plus/4 back in the eighties. I wasnt very good at playing games on the keyboard so I did all my games playing on the good old commodore joystick. Is there any more joystick wagglers out there or are you key tappers or perhaps your gamidextrous and did both?

(I also went through at least four joysticks playing delights like daley thompson star events)

Joystick as often as possible, or at least while they lasted...the Commodore 1341 joysticks were really cheaply made, they broke so easily. These days I have a Konix Speedking, which I think was the only other joystick made in a C16/Plus4 version happy

Also, some games (such as the Justice Rampage games) have really awkward keyboard controls (the aforementioned games were designed for a C16 keyboard, but not a Plus/4 one).

There are some obvious exceptions to joystick control, like Thrust happy

I guess all of us used a c64 joystick with an adaptor.
I still have my couple ok Koenig Speedkingm and a though moving Koenig Navigator for sport games.
