2600 Joystick question?

[Masco73]

I just came across this set of sticks in my parts box. I checked in the DP guide 7 and don't see them. They are called Dual Command and they have both stick and paddle control on a rectangular base. I have not tried them yet, but the stick feels like it would work really well.

Anybody have these or info on them?? I can do a pic later if needed, but I am lazy right now.

I believe those were made by Coleco. They're fairly uncommon, not sure what a good price would be.

Yep, those are the joysticks that came with the Coleco Gemini system, which was a 2600 clone:

Fairly uncommon but not too much demand for them at all. I'd say they are probably worth $10-15 for the pair if you find someone interested in them.

I've got a pair of these.. I can verify that the joystick feels great, my sticks of choice for most 2600 games. Both of mine have lacking paddles.. but, maybe a good cleaning could fix that up.

The Gemini joystick is the only way you can play "Decathalon" without injuring your wrist.
