This service adds s-video or composite (your choice) and dual mono output to your Atari 5200, NTSC. The RCA/S-video jacks will be discreetly installed in the expansion port cover. RF out can be removed, or left in place, your preference. I create a custom board from scratch, but I keep the parts in stock. Service also includes “Tune Up” which includes replacing electrolytic capacitors and 5V regulator. You will receive an e-mail after your order to let you know where to ship your item for repair/modifications.
This is the Atari Jaguar to 5200 controller. The current version is v.2.2, which has been individually adjusted to be at dead center at rest, has an improved strain relief and user adjustable potentiometers. Works with most but not all games. From my testing, it works with about 95% of all games, the least playable is Star Wars: The Arcade Game, but just about everything else works perfectly or at least very playable. I embedded a video of me testing some games below to give you an idea of how the controller works.
The Jaguar controllers are getting really hard to come by. This will be replaced by the 5200 LT controller, to be released soon.
This is for the digital ONLY controller for the Atari 5200. This is my current, lower cost replacement for my Atari Jaguar to 5200 conversion. This version does NOT have external adjustable pots. I will be offering a version with external pots and a dual stick digital, DiDi.
This will work with MOST games, but not all, such as Star Wars the Arcade Game or Missile Command, that require analog control.
The long wait is over, a true, all analog controller. No digital hardware, no conversion, just pure analog goodness. Works with ALL 5200 games that require 1 controller. Ambidextrous design, along with a Atari 5200 aesthetic, even down to the joystick. This version is compatible with the original overlays for the 5200 numeric controller. Hand assembled in the USA.
Thank you to Wired-Up Retro over on Youtube! This was NOT a sponsored review, so glad people like this controller.

Ambidextrous design, along with a Atari 5200 aesthetic, even down to the joystick. Hand assembled in the USA. This is the initial production run, be the first to try a new controller for the 5200. Due to high demand, I am already on back-order, but I will fulfill as quickly as possible.
Update for 4/6/2024:
Just had an another influx of orders, if you ordered showing in stock, will ship in less than a week. For back-order, parts will take 10-15 days to arrive.
IMPORTANT UPDATE:
If you watched this video, which was NOT sponsored in any way, you may be interested in the ‘overlay’ version of the controller: https://retrogame.cyberphreak.com/product/atari-5200-true-analog-controller-overlay/
If you ordered is version, just drop me a note at retro@cyberphreak.com and I can update your order to reflect which one you want.
Please note, I am out of stock now on reworked controllers. I am getting better at maintenance on my CNC, less whoppsies to clear up!
No one is perfect, so my loss is your gain. During cutting on the CNC, bits get broken, plastic gets melted, etc. These reworked controllers cover over any blemishes with vynil on the plastic and use all new parts. The button colors may be random and the internal components may be left over stock from the previous versions of the controller, but work great! A little mystery in your life and you can save $30!

This is the order page for the IntelliVision II True 16 controller.
I finally have my latest creation working! The True 16 controller features:
True 16 way arcade style joystick, 8 micro-switches are used. I added a second deck to joystick that is turned 45 degrees.
Membrane keypad with overlay holder. Similar, but less mushy than the original keypad. No external 5V is used. Electrically the True 16 is identical to the original controller.
3 independent buttons, arcade style, 30mm, with an ambidextrous layout.
6 foot high quality cord with strain relief.
This version is for the IntelliVision II. I will also be releasing an IntelliVision I, which uses a DuPont style connector.
The controllers are hand assembled in USA.
I have parts on hand for an initial 9 controllers, with parts for 5 more on the way.
Photos to be updated when I cut my first controller.
This is for an unreleased controller, the + Ultimate, left hand stick, which adds independent buttons that work in parallel with the keypad, great for Night Stalker or Tron Deadly Disks, or any game that uses the keypad for firing.
This version will have buttons for 2,4,6, and 8. Let me know in the notes section if you want the “purist” or or right hand stick or left hand stick design.

This is the order page for the IntelliVision II True 16 controller, Purist, this is for the Left Hand Stick (LHS).
This controller has the joystick on the Left Hand Side, buttons on the right, and the keypad overlay holder also has a stop, like the original controller to prevent the overlay from slipping out.
