Today I want to look at the paddles that came with the Atari 2600 and some of my favorite games that were compatible with them. I always loved paddle controllers and some paddle games are my all time favorites for the Atari 2600, but they are limited in genre and gameplay. Overall, 39 distinct games (not counting re-releases, homebrew or multiple versions) were released that were compatible with paddle controllers.

I used some video from a channel called @RetroRepairs simply to show what jitter is and how people fix it. Please check out their channel, and their repair of jittering paddles if you are interested!
