Deep Silver CX40+ Wireless Joystick

Stick felt a little stiff but, once I plugged it n and started using it, It felt great. Very responsive and feels like one of my old sticks, just a little tighter. Worked great on my Atari 2600, XEGS, and 130XE. One note, on the XEGS, it can be difficult to remove the receiver dongle from the port due to the recessed nature of the port.

Bought it for my MiSTer. Works great with the included USB (was not able to connect via Bluetooth). Felt like how I remember the 2600 joystick feeling - mushy hand cramping nostolgia.

This controller feels to me fairly close to the original Joystick as it's stiffer especially compared to the Atari Classic Wireless Controller (which works and has more buttons, but Joystick is pretty loose and slippery since it can be used as a paddle controller as well).It only has 1 button like the original so be aware in case you need more buttons. Tested on PC & Atari 2600+. I also got it to work with C64 mini however this requires changing controller DB which isn't straightforward, but it can be done (id is 030000006a0e00001140000011010000).It can be used both wired and wirelessly with dongle. I didn't notice lag with 2600+. I did find sometimes that when I haven't used it in a while and start it up, it will constantly trigger fire button. Unplugging/plugging dongle fixes that again.

Can't speak to the battery/charge life but they seem to work well and have a good range. I'd give 5 stars but there was no paperwork or instructions at all. Easy enough to figure out but would be nice to know how long they are supposed to hold charges for and what the additional hardware dongles are for.

Looks and feels like the original classic version. Paired it using the provided USB dongle in Windows and worked great. Unfortunately after shutting down the computer and restarting it, it has to be re-paired to the dongle every time. Could not find any firmware update or fix in support forums/reddit to remedy the issue. Returned the item for a refund.

Love this joystick! It works with a dongle and gives you a great wireless experience. Takes away a little from the nostalgia, but this short cords were a pain anyway.

Looks and plays just like the original, and it's wireless.. awesome.

Great condition, very happy!!
