![]() The game works well with my 4-way joystick and S1 button. *4) Donkey Kong: The game is intended to be played with a 4-way joystick and one "Jump" button. The game works well with my 4-way joystick. *3) Frogger: The game is intended to be played with a 4-way joystick. I enabled the "Continuous Shooting" setting which kind of spoiled me for the other Galaxian-type games. *2) Galaga: The game is intended to be played with a 2-way (left/right) joystick and one "Fire" button. Pac-Man: The game is intended to be played with a 4-way joystick. An asterisk (*) indicates a game I've spent some time playing and can more or less verify what's written. The information below should be considered preliminary at best. Tip: The trackball is a great tool for quickly scrolling through the 60 game menu. All games (except the two 1943 games) can be played by two people in an alternating format which works with my single set of controls. So it's still possible (if a bit awkward) to play the 8-way games. But I can still hit the diagonals even with the restrictor plate turned to its 4-way configuration. I have an easily convertible joystick, but usually leave the restrictor plate configured as a 4-way. My control panel includes a joystick, three buttons (S1-S3) and a trackball. Other games may have been produced in multiple versions and/or as multiple conversion kits and/or as multiple multicades. The meaning of a few settings was not obvious to me and may require more research and testing.Ĭontrols: Finding an image and description of each original control panel was not always easy. So I pretty much set each game to whatever looked like the easiest settings available. My initial intent was to set each game to its factory recommended settings, but my research was hit and miss. I set all games to three lives because that's what I remembered from the old days and because I don't have the patience to suck for five lives. For example, some games gave five lives while others had only two. As such, there was virtually no consistency between games. By default, the 60 in 1 comes with all soft DIP switches set to OFF. The switches mostly correspond to the physical or "hard" DIP switches that would have appeared on the original individual game boards. Soft DIP Switch Settings: Within the 60 in 1's Test Menu are "soft" DIP switches for each game. If there's a logic to how the list is ordered, I don't know what it is. As shown below, I compiled a list of all the games and researched how each game played and how the game's original control panel setup compared with my available controls. I had never heard of most of the games included on the 60 in 1 board.
