Atari 2600 USB Joystick/Paddle for Raspberry Pi?

Go to solution Solved by johnny5c,

I've tried a few different ones and they all were pretty bad so I'm now using a original 2600 joystick with a USB adapter.

I was wondering if anyone knew of a good USB Atari 2600 Joystick and Paddle to for use on a Raspberry Pi? 

 

I see some on amazon with less than favorable reviews and don't want to jump in and spend $30 on controllers if they are going to be junk.

If anyone is still using this forum post, Stella on retropie need B button for fire. My Retro Link Classic Controller only binds A for menus. I need to bind both A and B to the same button to make it work. For Now I am using a USB SNES controller for my Atari Flashback project Made with a Flashback 8 shell and a Raspberry Pi 2. The Retrolink feels the closest to original 2600 controller, also uses same internal buttons or similar that 2600 did.
