djfudgebar Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 ok, i found an atari for sale and am not sure if i should buy it. its one of the early ones, i forget what they are called, but its heavy and made in california and has woodgrain. the thing is, it doesnt have any controlers and i'm not sure if it works. it has no controlers, power supply, or games. it has the rf cord tho. and its only $15. think i should buy it? i dont have any other ataris either... so i dont have controlers or power supplys to use on it. i also found this, heres the description: "An excellent (near mint condition) Atari 7800 system with all of the hook-ups (AC adaptor, RF switch, and 2 original good condition tested Atari 7800 controllers). The package includes 4 Atari 7800 games, all tested and working, and 4 Atari 2600 games, all tested and working. The 7800 titles are Galaga, Food Fight, Choplifter, and Pole Position 2. The 2600 titles are Combat, Pac-Man, Super Breakout, and Coleco's Donkey Kong. This is a very rare find, and all collector's should have it!" the problem is its $70. not sure if its worth that. but it looks to be one of the early ones that can play 2600 games [ 07-31-2001: Message edited by: djfudgebar ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyp Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 Buy it man! You can get the othe stuff later. Any joypads with 9 pin D sockets will work on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 Again...I would be leary...I can actually buy complete 2600s here...Heavy Sixers or not...for the 20-30 dollar range. That includes at least one controller...the tv switch box and the power supply. As for the 7800...if it is an actual 84 model..then that price is unfortunately about right...(Still too high...). If not..then it is way way too high. Check Ebay..they have many 7800 systems there with everthing and you can usually get one for about the 20-40 mark depending on what it comes with...etc..

djfudgebar Posted July 31, 2001 Author Share Posted July 31, 2001 yeah, i will. its only 15. even if i never get it working i wont have lost much. i also found A-TEAM in good condition. the game is pretty rare isnt it? it doesnt have a price. i have to make an offer tho, what would you guys say would be the highest i should pay for it? i just checked my stella emulator and according to that it's an unbelivably rare prototype [ 07-31-2001: Message edited by: djfudgebar ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
