commodore deffo made controllers. first gen were exact 2600 replicas, second were their own design and kinda sucked

I still have a pair of first-gen commodore-branded joysticks in storage :stunned:

I should dig them bitches out and throw them on ebay. BAM vacation money.

we went through a LOT of joysticks back in the 2600/C64 era. Common complaint was that the stick was too long

one popular mod to the 2600 sticks - disassemble, remove the rubber cover and the plastic stick assembly. shorten the stick with a hacksaw. dip the cut end into a pan of gasoline until the plastic softened, then mash the tip into the shape of a flattened mushroom. wash the stick assembly with dish soap & water, allow to dry, reassemble.

(yes a bunch of ten-year olds came up with the design for the PS2 sticks before the PS2 existed. we should sue Sony.)

there was another favorite stick I had. it was red and black, short steel stick on top. the base was shaped to fit into the palm of your hand, and the lone button was on the bottom right next to your index finger. can't remember the name, but I think it was produced by a company that also made games for the C64 ?

Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?

pixel art is "hard" so people cheat to get a "pixel art look" to cop the visual style but don't actually obey the rules of hte art form

like, where you sort a couple thousand photographs by dominant color hue and lightness and arrange them to form a bigger-picture image made up of smaller images? That's difficult and effort-consuming

so what do people do? Randomize the pictures, equalize and then overlay with the image to give the vague appearance of the former.

it's cheats to try and copy a look that you cant authentically do the artwork for.

point is the pixel matrix is correct in that and lines up, whereas in the MS one it doesn't. i made it just how i explained before, using the photoshop pencil tool and scaling using nearest neighbour.
