Highlights of your Jaguar Collection


The Helper

Recommended Posts

I have been into Jaguar ever since it came out but I did not get into collecting for it until late. I realize that alot of the people that post in these forums have extensive Jaguar collections and was wondering what types of interesting items highlight your collection. The ones I have are not that great but this is what I think is special in mine

 

Battlesphere

Custom made overlays for games such as Worms, Zero 5, Battlesphere, etc...

A Jamma LX Joystick

Spacewar 2000 Prototype

Custom made Tempest 2000 Rotary Controller

A rare Cannon Fodder strategy guide.

My set of 4 Pro Controllers

Well, I have nothing extraordinary in the way of hardware (just all the normal stuff that Atari produced). As far as software is concerned,

 

- BattleSphere

- Air Cars

- Spacewar 2000

- Speedster II

 

Haven't really been collecting too long for the Jaguar yet, and I bet there are tons of Jaguar prototypes floating around out there. Well, maybe not floating around, but we know that there were many Jaguar games in development that never saw the light of day. So one can hold out hope that they'll be discovered and dumped. Of course, until a decent Jaguar emulator hits the scene those dumps might not be very useful.

Where do I start?

 

Alpine boards

Flash carts

Proto-games-o-plenty

Aircars #1 and #2 (the only numbered Aircars carts in the world, BTW)

Rapid Fire Controller

Developer CDROM unit

Developer Jags

BattleSphere

Source code to multiple Jaguar games

Custom-built rotary controller

Saturn Virtua Arcade stick converted for Jag

ProControllers

etc.

 

Believe it or not, I actually still don't own a few games, like DDV, Hover Strike (cart), and Dragon. Maybe someday I'll make it a complete set...

I haven't been collecting much for this system in the last long while. In fact, the only thing I've bought for it in the last couple of years was Syndicate. However, I somehow managed to get:

 

The Catbox (Any estimates on production #'s?)

Primal Rage (Yeah, it's only a 5)

Jaguar Official Gamers Guide

 

And that's about it. Since I'm not a terribly serious Jaguar collector, I think that's still pretty decent. Sadly, the Jaguar is pretty low on my priority list lately.... 2600 is at the top, and Lynx is second.

Hey Carl, got an extra Flashrom to sell? That's cool that you made a cart for Phasezero. I'd love one of those...which reminds me, Carl, do you know who ever got that I-war "proto" on flashrom? The one we both wondered if the texture mapping shut-off option worked or not? How many of those Brett Hull carts are there? I thought someone else had the only copy of that(on cart). Ever think about re-releasing Aircars and maybe releasing Phasezero carts? I get both, even if they were special order.

 

my rarities:

 

*Jagstick MAAS arcade stick (this is not a Jamma, it is MUCH better and compatible with all my other atari systems too, except the 5200-I made it myself)

*Custom Rotary controller for T2k (further customized by your's truely to be different from the rest)

*Flashrom (unfortunately it has broken)

*Battlesphere&JUGS

*2 procontrollers

*SpaceWar2k

*Full color Battlesphere instructions (available to anyone who has JUGS)

*Lots'o custom made overlays

* tons of real ads and articles spanning the Jaguar's lifespan, taken from the magazines

 

 

I used to have Aircars and a Catbox, but traded them for my now dead flashrom. Anyone think they could repair a flashrom with a couple of burnouts on the board? it could be damaged further, but I have a suspicion that it's not. I just don't have the right equipment to repair surface-mount technology (it's so small).

I haven't scanned anything, but I could...

Which reminds me, how do you want submissions? Just Zip files in the e-mail? Also, does it matter what format graphic and text files are in, e.g., Acrobat, Photoshop, .gif, etc.?

I hope to have more Rapid Fire Controllers in stock by Christmas. It takes a long time to make a small qty., and they usually sell fast.

 

Gunstar, I may have a spare flash cart to sell in a few weeks. I'm also shopping around for Prot SE playtesters, and you need to have a flash cart to be one...

 

Note that not everything in that CGE pic is mine. Everything with the little text labels was on loan from Scott Walters, and a few unencrypted CD games were supplied by the show organizers. It's pretty cool what Jag fans have been able to snag over the years.

Actually I have every game boxed except for:

 

Battlesphere

Aircars

Atari Karts

Breakout 2000

Battlemorph

Attack of the Mutant Penguins

 

and some of the Songbird releases (I'm working on it)

That's how I do it; never log out. Also, some of the new browser versions including the latest MSN and Netscape browsers have options for them to automatically log you in to any forum of which your a member. I'm sure others do too...

 

 

Carl, what type of equipment is required to make cartridges like the Phasezero one in that picture? I am interested in any flashrom you might be able to sell me, and being a tester for Protector SE.

Well, my rarer highlights would have to be:

 

Atari Jaguar system -- hey, if I didn't have this all the other stuff would be useless, right?

Jaguar CD

2 ProControllers

Breakout 2000

Defender 2000

Alien vs. Predator

Protector -- Don't know how I forgot to add this.

I don't think there is, at least I haven't seen a UBB 6 board that does. However, unless you're worried about someone else using your computer to post as you, you can always not log out. You're log in information will be saved in a cookie and every time you visit the site you'll already be logged in. Hope this helped.
