Ahh no, using a mouse would not be satisfactory for me.
Back in about 1983 I used to have a copy (erm!) of Breakout, the paddles only version, and it bugs me to this day that I wasn't able to play.
And now I finally have paddles, but they're not working :(

Is it about the Micromys V5? Am I understanding it correctly that you'd replace the paddle with a mouse?
That would be a last resort to me. It would be really fun to be able to use the original paddles.
