What a steal! According another forum member these are almost worth a couple hundred unmodified!

[Osgeld]

I dont see why, the only differences are a paper label, and maybe the atari logo on the front is a tiny bit fatter. I did have a for promotional use only one earlier this year with the chrome switches and sunnyvale sticker, I got 85 for it only cause it was in pretty darn good condition

Osgeld, when you going to make those video buffer boards for the 2600 available in your shop to purchase? hehe

[Osgeld]

soon

I think my sarcasm was a little too subtle. I think your price is good for a modded 2600. Was poking fun at another sellers asking price.

right now that I am back home I actually HAVE to order some more, I finally ran out of boards (well I have 1 left) but I want to replace the resistor with a pot ... the input levels of a 4 switch, jr and 6 switch are all slightly different so I just place a resistor of appropriate value ... that wont work if I start selling them to the general public for use with multiple systems

 

the original boards I had been using was "we have to make 30 engineering samples and there's plenty of wasted space in the pcb panel you want to throw anything in there" so I put 3 boards in that space and ended up with 90 of them, thought that would last forever, that was in 2015 and I am on my last one so that's a lot of atari's (and a few other systems) in 3 years lol

 

I might also do up a "delux" version which is what I use in my 65XE which uses 2 chips and if you input chroma and luma (which is fairly easy to seperate on a 2600) it can output composite and svideo longhorn style (second chip is the same that he used on the output stage) but first things first

Oh I picked up on it, I just dont know why people think they are something super special, its just either an early rev, or a rebuild

 

The one's to look out for are like the promo unit I had which was a 4 switch base with a light six top (speaker holes) and only if your a pokemon collector and its in mint condition CIB

Os, incase you get anymore systems in the future and still are up for doing that mod for me with the other jack let me know . Free bump

Sounds like a great service/deal. Do you pictures of the modded output on a TV?

yea my bad I have been in a rush sorting though a tub of 90's era PC parts while waiting on a digikey order to drag in so when I posted what you cant see is the mountain of pentium's just off to the side while this thing has been sitting around over a week waiting on a part heh
