What about the NAMCO version of the joystick thingy? It looks much better and has Pacman on it which is almost a good enough reason in itself to buy one. Here's a pic:

i read over at rllmuk(i think) that thats meant to be just as bad.
i'm sure they ain't that bad though i suppose you could try it out and send it back if you don't like it

[johnjwaters]

man that pacman one looks sweet, my gf is always after pacman and that would be ideal...although if its ****

[Junko]

Ive got that Namco joystick thingie , the games on it are

Pac Man
Galaxian
Dig Dug
Bosconian
Rally-X

Personally for me its worth it alone for Pac Man and Galaxian

As I understand it the Atari and Intellivision collections are the original games running on compatible hardware, whereas the Namco collection is a set of average remakes. Thats why it is regarded as less impressive than the other two.

Nope, they all run on bootleg NES(!) hardware. Apparently the Atari one is pretty bad, dunno about the INTV one.

Hmm... well the old TV Boy ran the original games, I imagined the Atari stick was just a new version of that.

I have the Intellivision one, I just haven't bothered plugging it in yet.

Are you sure the games are recreations?

My local Game had The Thing on PC for ?2.99 when I went in today. I'd heard it's not too bad a game.

HMV in Basingstoke have the official GC force feedback wheel back in stock for ?13 again. INFO. They sold out at Christmas, so I imagine this may have resurfaced elsewhere as well.
