CONTROLLERS
Below is a highlight of all the various controllers available through BD Retro Mods. Unless noted in the description, controllers can be purchased through the Etsy shop or by sending an email to bdretromods@gmail.com. The joystick balltop and arcade buttons can be changed to different colors if desired. If ordering directly through email, most arcade style controllers can have a different button style and/or have the joystick swapped to the right side if desired.
None of these controllers are affiliated with the companies of the consoles, computers or games they work on.

Four games for the Atari 2600 (Astroblast, Canyon Bomber, Demons to Diamonds, and Video Olympics) were coded to where Paddle 2 is actually Player 1 and Paddle 1 is Player 2. Atari also did the same thing for all paddle compatible games on the Atari 8-bit computers.
