Robotron 2084 – Joystick Rebuilt

The joystick grommets have arrived!

Pretty easy fix, just flip the control panel down, and unscrew the base of the assy

Throw away the cracked grommet

Insedentally, the left grommet was in backwards causing a binding issue and probably reduced its life.

Now if I could just locate a better speaker, need to do some goodwilling!   Starting to run out of things to do!!  Oh No!!

This game should come with a warning label ‘Warning, Extremely Addictive’.  I never played it very much growing up cause the games were fast and the quarters went quick.  Heck, I just played 10 games in under a half hour.  Got to be in my top 5 arcade games of all time.

  1. Nice work. Make sure you stop playing long enough to eat :)
