So I purchased a Missile Command cabaret awhile ago and I am bringing back from the dead. It was missing the trackball and other parts. I was thinking that a Centipede cocktail trackball would work but, the bolt pattern does not match up. I know the original trackball housing for the Missile Command cabaret looks different compared to Centipedes but I figured the bolt patterns would be the same.

Anyway, is there a way to hook the Centipede trackball or do I need to find another housing? I am thinking I need a new housing.

Anyone have a Missile Command Cabaret trackball?

Does the original housing for the Missile Command take a 2 1/4" ball?

Thanks for any help!
 
Yes it's a 2.25" trackball, but the assembly is completely of metal intstead of plastic.

The construction of this trackball is probably the best ever but it won't be very easy to find I'm afraid.
 
Thanks for the info. That trackball does look like a killer design! Well I guess the quest continues to find yet another piece. So close!
 
I just pulled two of these from my MC CT - they are most definitely not for sale but you're right - this design looks and feels bulletproof. It's very impressive in terms of construction and price as part of the overall unit. How did they afford that? Can you imagine getting a fully caged metal framed trackball these days?
