Also the fire button began to stick (although it still worked) and some of the fingers inside at the bottom of the stick broke off and 1 cracked. Until better plastic is used I do not recommended this. My children used the original Atari joystick on our C64 for years and never broke a joystick, so they know how to use them. I contacted Legacy and told them of the trouble and it sounds like they will refund the money but I really would like to see this product improved so I could buy another.

I ordered mine 20 days ago (the website says it takes up to 3 days to process and 3 days to ship). I've emailed the company at least 3 times. There's no way to get a hold of them directly by phone. I read somewhere that the creator was having personal problems, but he was well enough to take my money. What a rip-off. I’m sure it’s an awesome product if you manage to get yours.
