One thing that I love about the 2600 is how many joysticks are available for it, and one of the best things about collecting for it is trying out all the different controllers. And it's a good thing so many are available because it seems as though there is no such thing as the "perfect" 2600 joystick. No matter how great a stick seems to be, you always seem to come across games where its performance is only so-so and another controller works better.
So, I was wondering...
What do you think is the best all-around 2600 joystick, meaning which stick works the best for the largest variety of games. Or to put it another way, if you could only have one joystick the rest of your life to play your entire 2600 collection, what would it be?
For me, I guess I would have to say the Wico "bat handle" stick, but to sort of prove what I was saying earlier, this one isn't exactly perfect. For example, if I'm playing Dragonfire, I would much prefer my Competition Pro stick. But if I could have only one stick for all my games, I think I would go with the Wico.
What about you?
