Miss Nancy: The original 1970s Atari 2600 GCS came with 2 sets of controllers. The joysticks (which flashback 2 has)and also a set of analog paddle controllers. These controllers were used for games that needed the precise analog control like Pong, breakout, and Night driver. Basically It's a tiny little rotating knob with a fire button on the side. These games are playable with the digital joystick, but it's a very frustrating experience. Still I think it's TOTALLY AWESOME that the new console is compatible with a 27 year old peripheral. ^_^
