Hi everyone

I've got a Vectrex I hardly use because it hurts the thumb too much
because of the missing screw on tip on the joystick. If someone has a
defunct controller and can help me out, please let me know. Unless
there's some other solution I'm unaware of...

Cheers and Happy New Year

Alex

Put me down for one replacement joystick tip. In fact, put me down for
three (it would be nice to have two backups just in case).
