Yes. Best Atari controllers for atari consoles. You are right in that regard. Keyboard and mouse still win in every other comparison
Wico had the best controllers for Atari in my opinion. Don't think they had a paddle, but they did have a trackball which was great to play Centipede and Missile Command with.
This controller had rotators for movement with the paddle. You could perform 3-dimensiol movement while a auxiliary action command was available. At the time, it was top-of-the-line, but it also came out when Atari consoles were on their way out
Which controller is that you are talking about? I know they had paddles and also driving controllers which were paddles without the stop. The wico controllers I am talking about are the Red Ball and the same stick versions.
