[net.games.video] What is a WICO?

maw (11/24/82)

Sorry, I've been away from the net for a brief while, and I seem
to have missed some articles.  In particular, I am interested in
a description of something called a "WICO", referenced recently in
an article by Phil Gunsul, who agreed with "Kit" that the WICO was
indeed a handy device.  Phil mentioned connecting it to his
ColecoVision, which I also own and about which my sole complaint is
that the controller leaves something to be desired.

If the WICO is an after-market joystick that can be used with the
ColecoVision unit, I am EXTREMELY interested in finding out more.
In particular, what is its approximate cost, where can it be pur-
chased (I am in the far western Chicago suburbs), how good is it
in comparison to ColecoVision's controllers or "arcade quality"
joysticks, etc.

Please send me any info you have via mail, or postnews if you
REALLY think anyone else will be interested.  Thanks in advance.
