Ben Heck’s New Mod: The ‘Atari 3600′ Stick

Everyone’s first big complaint with this — a 360 controller stuffed into a 2600’s casing — is the lack of a second analogue joystick. So it’s not your new Halo stick. But Braid? Sure.


Heck also admits he cheated a little on this, gutting a Guitar Hero III guitar for the stick’s circuitry. Other fun facts: Ben measures a project’s time in length of “Law & Order” episodes, which he watches while modding (in the daytime, he watches “Charmed.”)

You can check out this video of Heck playing Braid with it, set to “If I Had a Firm Backside” “If I Could Turn Back Time” by Cher.
