Ok I got the sucker hooked now how do I get the "special high-resolution mode"
as opposed to the "standard mode" that will give you only A B fire buttons
and start select buttons and up/down/left/right buttons (emulating the
Nintendo controller).

1. Is it a special program.
2. Do you just pulse out more than 8 bits before reseting the controller.
3. Do you need a special interface or actual different glove.
4. Do I call someone that can tell me at ATARI
(I tried calling a couple of people at atari and they were unable to help)
