MJayIndy Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I recently purchased a lot of two Atari systems, a Sear Tele-Games four switch and a short rainbow Atari 2600 Jr. I decided to open up the Jr. first, as I thought it would be easier to check out and fix. The system, as I expected, wouldnt load a game properly so I pried the cracked case open to take a look. I thought someone had done a custom job on the board, as an entire section of the board was blank (pictured). I looked at it to find a motherboard number and found ATARI REV. D written on it. A simple google search led to nothing and I havent found any record of this board ever existing. Does anyone has any information about this console?

alex_79 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 The board has not been modified. It is designed for both PAL and NTSC variants and that area is only populated in the PAL version.Here's a picture of the same area on one of my PAL units (revision F1) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since this console doesn't work, I was just needing to make sure that it wasn't missing anything that would be detrimental to its fluent operation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
