An ebay-purchase in quite good condition. Consistent yellowing of course. But a good base for a Gotek floppy-emulator. ;-)
This controller is often ridiculed, but I feel that most of the criticism is unfounded. I actually sort of like this controller. I find it comfortable. The keypad with overlay support is a bit retro, but perhaps they just wanted to kick it old school. It does make games like Alien vs. Predator or Iron Soldier, where there are lots of weapon selections, very convenient to play. The three action buttons are labeled C, B, and A, and the aux buttons in the middle are marked “Pause” and “Option”. All in all, it feels somewhat inspired by the Lynx. Strangely, the connector plug is a VGA Monitor plug. The only negative thing I have to say about this controller is that when you play most of the games on the Jaguar, you’ll definitely notice the lack of an analog stick. I can’t really knock too many points off for that, though, since nothing had analog sticks at the time, it wasn’t until the N64 came out a few years later that people realized you needed analog control for 3D games.
It is big, I’ll give it that, but it’s actually roughly the same size as the Dreamcast controller or the original XBox monster pad. It’s also fairly light because it’s mostly empty inside, unlike the lead-lined Duke.

This is the all black version (no long rainbow stripe), I hear only sold in Ireland, so how I got one in Nottingham I don't know.

One of my hobbies is collecting retro-computers, focusing on computers made by Atari. I have currently have eleven different Atari-models, three from Commodore and one other model in my collection.
The Atari Stacy was Atari's first attempt at building an portable computer based on the Atari ST. It it the market in the end of 1989.
In 2011 I was looking to buy an Atari TT, inspired by a friend who just bought a Commodore SX64, a portable Commodore 64, which was kind of his dream computer. The TT was the computer I always dreamt about owning, so now I was searching Ebay and other places for one.
At the same time as I the TT I was going to buy on Ebay, there was an Atari Stacy for sale on Ebay as well, located in Stockholm. As this is a quite rare model as well, I thought it could be worth to try to win the action, and luckily I did.
My friend who bought the SX64 picked it up for me in Stockholm. The seller told him he was glad I won it, I was bidding against someone from South America, so the seller worried about how he would pack it and ship it.
This Stacy is pretty battered and well used, it has been used for what the Atari ST is best known for, it's MIDI-capabilities. The floppy drive was replaced and not working very well, and the 20MB hard drive was just making lots of noise. The ASCI-port and the internal SCSI-adapter seems broken as well, and the back light, which is known for it's limited life span, is barely working. Some keys on the keyboard isn't working due to a broken connection, but still it has one of the nicest keyboards I've ever used.
I've replaced the floppy and removed the hard disk (it had leaked some gooey fluid too all over the internals of the computer). I'm thinking of replacing the backlight with a modern LED backlight.

I posed these models for an Atari ad I painted. Note all the brand new Atari 800 boxes. Wish I had all those mint computers now.
This is a pristine, unplayed 1983 fresh Atari 5200. The controllers hadn't ever been used, the blue plastic overlay on the brushed aluminum is still unremoved!
A great game from 1979. Wish I had one of these machines, it was actually a lot of fun and a decent workout until you had enough of the track ball pinching your hand.

Here we can see the atari 1040ste that was the last atari 16 bit computer I owned.
520stfm was my first.
It has the ICD hard disk attached that was partitioned into 16mb segments so that TOS could read it.
I also have the 51/4 inch drive as a floppy backup.
Complete with teletext decoder and tv input this was the bees knees.
I stayed way too long on the atari platform before moving to the 32 bit amiga 1200 next to it.
