Hi DJC,
Yeah, I tried to slow the response down a bit with the joystick in Pong so as
to make it the same as the keyboard. Guess I didn't quite get it.
I really like a joystick or game controller. To me it makes the games seem
more like a video game rather than a computer game. Guess just b
hing up on wikipedia is my usual response to
anything I become interested in.

Hi Dark,
I'm sorry, but I don't really know for sure how the video arcade games of Pong
played, as I mostly only played Pong on my Atari 2600. I'm pretty sure that
the games were always to 21. My Dad did have a video Pong game in his bar. It
was a bit different though in that it was in a tab
asted, but I'm not entirely certain on this.
wikipedia seems to have failed on this point, which is slightly
disappointing.
Beware the Grue!

Is a really bad pun a form of punishment?

Hi Tyler,
Thanks for saying that you like the new version of Pong. To tell you the
truth, other than adding the joystick support, I wasn't planning on changing
anything and I doubt that I will do another version. I just wanted to add the
joystick support and get it into the kitchensinc folder
Hi Dark,
Thank you very much for saying that you like Pong better this way.
You know also the down load file size went from 2.3 to 1.0 meg.
May I ask, what else did you have in mind for a Ping Pong game other than to 11
or 21?
Thanks again and BFN
Jim

Hi Charles,
Yeah, I would not have planned to up grade Pong at all until I got into the
joystick stuff. Well and moving it into the kitchensinc folder. But otherwise
the game is the same as before.

It's been a long time since an upgrade to this game. Although I don't have
a joystick yet??, and that is the key word, thanks for the work on behalf of
gamers.

Hi Thomas,
Yeah, those were the controllers ok. I never played break out or super break
out.
The recession of the early eighties put me out of work and I couldn't afford to
buy games after that for some time. And by then I could no longer see and gave
away my Atari 2600 and Atari 800 XL home
Hi Charles,
Yeah, not sure if I will actually make the game, but if I do I guess that I
could put it on my site with a warning.

Don't shoot until you're sure you both aren't on the same side.

Hi Jim,
Yep, those are the controllers for pong alright. I remember them
clearly. They were rectangle shaped, black, had two rackets painted on
the top of them, and it had a black wheel you turned left or right to
move your racket around on the screen.
As I recall those same controllers worked r
I would say to put it on the site with a warning if necessary.

Hi Charles,
Yeah, I can't wait to play Pong with a Joystick. However I don't believe that
is how I played it on my Atari machines. I believe that I bought special
controllers. They were little hand held controllers with a spinner wheel and a
button on the side They were actually two of thos
