Hi,

I've just bought a CD-i 210 on ebay, the seller listed it with 2 controllers, I believe they are called the 'commander' and the 'thumbstick'. They've just told me the 'thumbstick' doesn't work.
Can anyone tell me, with regards to the 210 series - do these two controllers do the same things?, or do I need the 'thumstick' for some functions that the 'commander' doesn't have buttons for??.

Many thanks!

I'm not sure what you mean exactly without a link to the auction and/or pictures. But if it's what I think it is, you won't be able to do much with any games if the stick isn't working.

All controllers basically do the same thing on the CD-i. They just mostly look different, and feel differently in terms of control. Any peripheral is interchangeable with any game as well--for instance, you can use a mouse or trackball with any game. Same with any control pad or remote.
