Never played on the 2600, but love playing it on CV.  Regarding the comment about difficulty on the CV, choose a higher level than 1.

In Topic: Cost of tokens for atari games in an arcade

Those were the days.  $.25 games, and extra tokens for grades at the local Putt-Putt Golf and Games.

Haven't been to an arcade in a few years, but if I remember correctly you can't touch a game for less than $1 these days.  And the new games suck.  What would. $.25 in '85 be today with inflation?

NES controllers break?
Exactly what I was thinking!  Generally a little cleaning of the contacts and they're ready to go.  I have managed to tear a rubber pad once while cleaning, but just fixed with superglue.

One of my son's stupid PS3 wrestling games seems to take at least a couple of minutes to load.

All of my H6 controllers are built like that.  They're very heavy duty compared to the newer light sixer versions.  I like the smooth feel, but the button and stick throw is a bit wide for my liking.
