The Freedom Stick is an arcade game-type wireless controller made by Camerica. It is compatible with the Nintendo Entertainment System, Sega Master System, Atari 2600, 7800, XE, Commodore 64, and Commodore 128, and is considered a clone of Nintendo's officially-licensed arcade controller, the NES Advantage.
It comes with the controller itself and a bundled external box which connects the controller to the box and the box to the game systems.
Because of the similarities to the NES Advantage, Nintendo filed a lawsuit against Camerica over the Freedom Stick and their other arcade controller, the Turbotronic, but lost.
Famous quotes containing the words freedom and/or stick:
“Freedom is always and exclusively freedom for the one who thinks differently.”
—Rosa Luxemburg (1870–1919)
“Now, what I want is, Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of any service to them. This is the principle on which I bring up my own children, and this is the principle on which I bring up these children. Stick to Facts, sir!”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
