Atari 2600 difficulty switch replacement part?

Post by MegaData » Wed Aug 02, 2023 11:31 am

Is it possible to replace the Atari 2600 difficulty switch? "Four switch" has black plastic switch top back, slides left and right. I can keep using a screwdriver... but it has to be an easy fix, no?

$2.50 Atari 2600A/2600JR Left, Right difficulty and channel 2/3 Slide switch CO12241
Looks like the part at Best Electronics but , the site mentions a minimum of $20 for credit card orders in one place, rubber feet for a controller with "no limits," and my reply back by email says they have limited Atari sales to three Atari items.

🤔

I must be a special customer?

There is no mention of a maximum order limit on the website. It totally says the opposite.
