The Atari Game Select Matrix: an UNSUNG HERO of the Atari 2600

If you’ve ever flipped through an old Atari manual, you might have noticed those mysterious charts and grids. But what do they mean? In this video, Jon breaks down what he asserts is an underappreciated facet of Atari artwork. #atari #retrogaming #vintage #genxgrownup ?

The Atari SLIK STIK from Suncom | Among the BEST 2600 9-pin Controllers!

In the early '80s a company called Suncom manufactured this unassuming little 9-pin joystick for the Atari 2600. It doesn't look like much, but with its solid steel shaft, ball-top, and low profile, the Slik Stik is one of the most accurate and durable third-party controllers available for the 2600 (and compatibles). Jon found this one at the Southern Fried Gaming Expo 2025 and picked it up on pedigree alone. Let's clean it up and give it a test to see why so many players swear by this little controller. #atari #retrogaming #joystick #genxgrownup - LINKS (relevant links mentioned in video) - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 SFGE Flea 01:29 Starting Place 02:47 Dismantling 04:14 Cleaning 05:09 Assembly 05:46 Cleaning II 07:40 Clean & Ready 08:28 Play Test 10:14 Summary
