I know the titles on Atari System 1. However, Marble Madness is the only game I have played. I do have a Road Blasters project in storage that I received in a package deal, however, have not done anything with it yet.

That being said, the System 1 multicart and control panel has sparked a little bit of an interest in me. Although, I still am not interested enough to put the work in on my own and try to figure out what all I would need in joysticks, trackballs, and CP harnesses, and control panels, to be able to play all the games.

Are there any Atari System 1 fans out there that would be willing to school me and others on this?

I would like to know what was originally installed on the control panels and how often do they come available and then what the cost would be. I think my line in the "cost" sand is here but I know my line is different from others.

Then depending on the above information, I would want to know what the minimum one would need to spend on trackballs and joysticks. Can I buy a couple of new Wico style trackballs and an alternative joystick that will work with the games?

Again, are there any Atari System 1 people out there willing to give some information on this? I think for me and maybe others with a little information we might jump into the deep end of the System 1 pool.

Thanks in advance!
