Atari 2600 Paddle Controller

 

Not to be confused with the Driving controller the Paddle controller did not allow for full 360 degree movement. It did however connect two paddles to a single Atari 2600 joystick port allowing four simultaneous players for the game Warlords.

Even though the controller was designed for use with traditional Pong / Breakout games, it surprisingly saw a lot of use in a wide range of creative titles.
