Gaming Legend: The original Atari CX40 joystick, introduced in 1977 with the Atari 2600, became one of the most iconic game controllers in history and defined an entire generation of gaming.

Simple Yet Perfect: With its distinctive single-button design and responsive 8-way joystick, the CX40 proved that great gaming didn't require complex controls.

Modern Revival: The CX40+ brings this legendary design into the modern era with wireless technology and rechargeable batteries whilst maintaining the authentic look and feel that made the original so beloved.

Wireless Freedom: The 2.4GHz wireless technology eliminates cables whilst preserving the responsive, tactile feel that made the original CX40 perfect for classic gaming.

Rechargeable Convenience: The Ghost Edition controllers feature built-in rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, making them even more convenient for extended gaming sessions.

Collector's Appeal: This limited edition Pinky Pink version is part of the Ghost Gang collection, making it perfect for both serious collectors and retro gaming enthusiasts who want to celebrate Pac-Man's iconic adversaries.

The Ambusher: PINKY, also known as "Speedy" or "Pinky," is the pink-coloured ghost in Pac-Man and is characterised as cute but dangerous, specialising in ambush tactics.

Strategic Hunter: Unlike BLINKY who chases directly, PINKY attempts to position herself ahead of Pac-Man, trying to cut him off and trap him by predicting his movements.

Anticipatory AI: PINKY's artificial intelligence targets a position four spaces ahead of Pac-Man's current direction, making her particularly dangerous in narrow corridors where escape routes are limited.

Personality: Characterised as speedy and deceptive, PINKY represents strategic thinking and planning, making her a formidable opponent despite her cute appearance.

Tactical Challenge: PINKY's ambush strategy means players must think ahead and plan their routes carefully, as she'll be waiting where you're headed rather than where you are.

Ghost Gang Member: PINKY is one of the four iconic ghosts that have made Pac-Man one of the most recognisable and enduring video games in history, each with their own unique personality and chase patterns.

Cultural Impact: The Ghost Gang, including PINKY, has become as iconic as Pac-Man himself, inspiring countless merchandise, spin-offs, and celebrations of classic arcade gaming culture.

Arcade Icon: Pac-Man, created by Toru Iwatani for Namco (now Bandai Namco), debuted in 1980 and instantly became one of the most recognisable video game characters in history.

Cultural Phenomenon: The yellow, pill-munching character transcended gaming to become a global pop culture icon, appearing in merchandise, television shows, and countless collaborations.

Simple Yet Addictive: The gameplay concept of navigating mazes whilst eating dots and avoiding ghosts created a perfect formula that remains engaging over 40 years later.

The Ghost Gang: Much of Pac-Man's enduring appeal comes from the personality of its four ghost adversaries – BLINKY (red), PINKY (pink), INKY (cyan), and CLYDE (orange) – each with distinct movement patterns and personalities.

Record Breaker: Pac-Man holds multiple Guinness World Records and is considered one of the highest-grossing video game franchises of all time.

Atari Connection: This limited edition joystick celebrates the historic relationship between Pac-Man and Atari, bringing together two legendary names in gaming history.

Atari 2600+ Systems: Fully compatible with the Atari 2600+ Yellow Pac-Man Limited Edition console and standard Atari 2600+ consoles using the included DB9 wireless connector.

Atari 7800 Systems: Works perfectly with both original Atari 7800 consoles and the modern Atari 7800+ systems via the DB9 wireless connector.

Original Atari Consoles: Compatible with original Atari 2600 systems via the DB9 wireless connector, bringing modern wireless convenience to classic hardware.

PC Gaming: Connect to your computer using the USB-A wireless adapter to play Atari game collections and emulators with authentic joystick control.

Easy Setup: Simply plug the appropriate wireless adapter into your device, turn on the joystick, and start playing. No driver installation required for most systems.

Multi-System Gaming: Switch between different gaming systems by swapping the wireless adapters, making this joystick perfect for collectors with multiple Atari consoles.

Charging: Use a standard USB-C cable (not included) to charge your joystick. Connect to any USB power source such as a computer, wall adapter, or power bank.
