Not mine. I've never seen a wico with a keypad... I guess its for the 5200. Digitpress books just the one at $30.

That WICO with the keypad is for the Colecovision. And, as a CV controller, it pretty much sucks. Take my word for it, I have many 3rd party CV sticks, this is one of the worst. :evil:

Mr. Retrogamer isn't lying or trying to win the auction. He has a great collection of CV and 5200 sticks. The Wico Colecovision stick is not good. The only 3rd party CV stick I have used and liked is one by Spectravision. I might like the small Amiga one because I love the 2600 one, but I have never found one.

I have 2 of those Wico CV sticks - they definitely suck. The fire buttons barely work at all and they are unbelievably uncomfortable to hold. They are actuallyinferior to the original CV sticks which is pretty damn low :)
