Just so you guys don't think I'm dead (because of no posts lately) -- although I'm sure @MaximumRD would respectfully report on it if I was, there's a new project I've been working on. Restoration of a 2003 Subaru. It's got a water leak (which makes it smell bad), and needs some engine work. But I'm having FUN with it. My father was an auto mechanic. It feels good to get the hands dirty.
AND...I got a NEW JOB! I start next week. Should be lower stress. I hope.

That same mode is native to the 5200 with 5200 standard joysticks or the 5200's Trak-Ball controller. It was one of my favorite setups. Centipede took advantage of the 5200's setup as well. And that setup is how I play Missile Command on my XEGS. Pretty sweet playing that way, right? Diggin' that XL.

Just so anyone else knows, you must press ctrl-T on Missile Command to activate the analog trak-ball mode. It makes it as close to the arcade version as I've experienced. Actually, a little easier since you don't have to decide which missile base to fire from.
