Centipede Trak-Ball
Now you can enjoy Centipede for the Atari 2600 as it was meant to be played--with a Trak-Ball Controller! In fact, Centipede Trak-Ball supports three different controllers:
- Atari CX-22 and CX-80 Trak-Balls
- Atari ST Mouse
- Amiga Mouse
Setup and Play
Before powering up the system, please have the controller you wish to use already plugged into your Atari 2600 (or compatible) system.
When Centipede Trak-Ball boots, move the trak-ball or mouse around, and the game will attempt to auto-detect the controller plugged into your Atari 2600 (or compatible) console. If you find that this is not the case, you can use the SELECT switch on your console to cycle through the available controller options, and press RESET once the correct controller is selected. The selected controller should then work properly inside the game.
You can download the original manual for Centipede here.
