Three pre-production examples of Coleco's ColecoVision trackball, the unit that shipped packed with Slither and that also drives Victory, Omega Race, WarGames and Atarisoft's Centipede.
LITTLE IS RECORDED about the Roller Controller's development. What separates these three from each other and from the retail unit - casing, ball assembly, board revision, connector - is not in any published account, and the prototypes themselves are the only record. Photographing the differences would create the source that does not presently exist.
