I view it this way: For $1.79 (the price of the PC Jr. when I got them) + 1
1u panel + a bunch of jacks, I was able to build a quick and dirty and
surprisingly useful Joystick/Gate controller. In the long run, I'd probably
want a panel-mount, high quality joystick, but until then, I'm having goofy
fun with what I got (Feels like playing an Atari!)

This does sound like a cool feature.
