Summary

The keyboard controllers are an extension for the Atari 2600 Video Game System and are sold as a pair. They can be connected to the controller ports of the console instead of joysticks. About ten games use the numeric input. Using the 24 keys of the two controllers in total, Ataris BASIC-Cartridge — in a very limited frame — can be used to write your own programs.

The two controllers offer 3 x 4 rows with the digits 0-9 and the special characters # and *. The packaging exists in both green and black. There are overlays for the keyboards included.
