I got one. And apparently it is going to include a FREE 2003 Calendar
Lip Balm, whatever that might be. Is it a calender? Is it for your lips?
is it BOTH?

It must be a lip balm that displays todays date on your lips.

I want River Raid and Pitfall

I'm still trying to figure out why it is that Avon was the first place that I could find these online -- I saw them for sale earlier in the week, but *only* available on the Avon site...

the real mystery is what have they done to get this to work with the games that used the paddle controllers? Most of those games don't seem like they'd translate that well if controlled by a joystick.

Missile Command? With a _joystick?_

I have heard they don't translate well, but haven't tried it.

Here's a review that says it works okay, but not as well as the original 2600 versions:

How appropriate that Avon sells hand cream on the same page as this joystick.

2600 Missile Command was always played with a joystick. It's the paddle games I gotta wonder about

yeah, breakout with a regular joystick doesn't sound too fun
but i'd be psyched just for asteroids - too bad they didn't include decathalon and burgertime - those were my real favorites.
