31, I know I'm one of the old dogs here but I'll never stop gaming. I'll play until my eyesite is gone, or until I can't move my limbs. hahahahaha

I think you meant a pattle controller, for Pole Position. I'm so old, I was playing Pinball at 5, and then came along Space Invaders. My parents bought an Atari VCS, thinking they would keep me out of the arcades, but Combat just was'nt enough.
I'm one of the dinosaurs of these forums, at 34 years of age.
No, it was a trackball. It may not have been the 2600 I played it on though.
25 years old....been gaming since Atari 2600.
20. Woo hoo. Been playing games as far back as I can remember. Atari 2600 being the first thing I can remember off hand and been loving it all since, so much I decided to make them myself.

It was probably the Atari 5200. It had a trackball available for the console. I don't recall ever seeing one for the VCS/2600.
29 this August. The 2600 was my first console as well.
Actually there is a third-party trackball for the 2600 by Wico, I think. I have no clue what games support it.
But it is more likely that Jay was playing a 5200.
I'll be 24 in July.
Looks like this board represents, on average, the 18-25 age demographic.
