phonedork Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 This is the latest project from 8bitdomain, a 2600&7800 adapter for the Atari 5200.Prototype tested & completed, board with same feature set of a standard 7800. You will need to supply a few parts from a standard 5200 VCS adapter and a 7800. It has on board circuitry for Svideo, Composite Video and 2 channel audio identical to the 8bitdomain A/V mods so it will work with BOTH 2port & 4port 5200's. The main reason for posting this is I want to add some additional features and would like some feedback from this forum on what features you would like added. Some features under consideration are: --Built in Hi score capability for 7800 games --Atari 7800 devcart capability w/serial download --Other ideas??? I would like to keep the price as low as possible so I don't want to make it like a Cuttle Cart. That's already been done so what features would you like?

It looks a little fishy...Reminds me of the old big foot pics from back in the day. It just looks like an atari 5200 VCS adapter with 7800 joysicks plugged in and the 7800 cartridge does not even look like its plugged in. Perhaps photoshoped or shot at an angle. If this is real you are the man. However it just looks fake to me. You need to show pics of the inside or better yet a video of it working. I mean I can make that same shot with my Atari 5200 VCS adapter! Thats my opinion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phonedork Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I also think everybody got ripped off on this.... I can see nobody has gotten one. I feel sorry for the guy who dumped 150 dollars on this. Sorry dude.... It LOOKS FAKE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 So another scammer or what? Im glad I decided the price was too much and may as well just buy a Krok Cart. I dont feel the need to play 7800 too on my 5200 but the 2600 games are well enough. What is it with all the scam artists around here and didnt people buy from this guy before? He has a website? Is that still functional? There needs to be answers or call to his local police because this is ridiculous and Im just thankful I passed on this. You cant even trust guys that were trustworthy in the past it appears and this is very sad. If anyone got what they paid for please speak up. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxd Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 F*cking 8bitdomain is a thief who took my $150 bucks and never delivered this product. ALL his products should be DROPPED from this site and his ass should be banned from here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+remowilliams Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Hey guys, I reached out to Mike and got some news from him. And no I'm not related to this project or 8bitdomain in any way, I was just trying to get some clarity. You can post this PDF file of the layout I finished last week. They are going tothe board shop next week & should have them ready to ship the first week of July. If anybody wants a refund tell them to send me an email to this account and I will take care of it.

Shawn Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) I wonder if he's gonna issue intrest refunds on all the money he's had for a year without producing a product? Pictures of a schematic do nothing in regards to the amount of money he took well knowing he had no product.

As a member thats been following this since its inception and intially wanting to buy one, I am glad I did not. It may well be a fabulous product when all is said and done and you can yell at me when Im done too but it has to be said. Your Attitude stinks and if the shoe were on the other foot and someone was holding your money for 10 months or more without as much as an response to an email, I think you would be a lil more than just a tad miffed. We arent talking about $10 here right? A response just to this board to update the progress could have saved you and everyone that paid you much grief but you CHOSE to ignore people and then have the gall to threaten a refund. That's rich. No offense. Cheers, I hope it works out for all involved but with that tone, I highly doubt it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude, you've got some f*cking balls to come here and act like a wounded innocent victim. So you finally got around to getting some circuit boards, Whoop de f*cking do! What have you been doing for the last 13 months besides jerking yourself off with our money? Your attitude does suck. You're the one in the wrong here dude, not your customers...
