GCE Vectrex Control Panel - Model HP-3050

(GCE - 1982)

Vectrex Arcade Control Panel Joystick Controller
Some of the Vectrex games are capable of multi-player action. Spare control panel joystick controllers were available and are extremely rare now. If you can find one, they are worth their weight in gold.
The joystick controller for the Vectrex was called the control panel. It had four control buttons that had actions defined by each game and a self centering joystick. It had a coiled cord that could plug into the two controller ports on the front of the Vectrex.
GCE sold these spare control panels as replacements for broken units or to facilitate two player games that were released for the Vectrex (the best of which is Space Wars in my opinion).
