  1. What about 7800 basic or writer or some crap? Was that a thing too?
  2. Your light blue and my light pink that Bob made I think are the best going along with the classic boy or girl baby colours. That is what I thought in my mind when I requested the pink. So much work went into Bob's games. Money is not the greatest right now but I would consider a second job before cashing it out. Hopefully us collector types have family that can carry on the hobby for generations to come. Heck enough hardware and old crt tvs still out there if you hoard enough maybe another 150 years or so. 😁
  3. Happy with my pink copy. Thought for a split second about selling. But forget it. People are crazy. I think I paid 25 or 30 bucks.
  4. Usa only. Kinda like the 5200. Oh well glad I have enough 7800 stuff and then some. Do I need more copies of food fight and ninja golf? Or more controllers? A great opportunity for usa buyers starting out at least or usa buyers that like buying the same products over and over. How about a ninja golf or desert falcon 2??
  5. With my sl/2 I could go to deskmate, dos or basic at startup. I forget how. It was only 32 years ago sorry.
  6. Sorry for your loss. At Christmas as I get older I think of all the family and friends who are no longer here. Life becomes dull and boring and lonely with each passing year. I was a Metal head from way back too.
  7. I like the "Downlaod" button. Learn to spell. Cave people with computers.
  8. It is a shame Drac is not alive to answer. He would have been amazed at all the new 7800 stuff. He was a 7800 superfan and great guy.
  9. The Atari powers can demand it's release of all protos that are property of Atari. Reparations for years of hoarding games from Atari and living on their land to follow.
  10. Remember that one user that chopped his Concerto cart? Forget where that user went. Lots of old 7800ers are gone. Thia topic has been beat to death over a decade ago.
  11. Atariage is Atari. These other sites etc. Suck. I checked them out basically full of outcasts from atariage and newbies reposting atariage content. It is a free world but the reality is this is the best retro gaming site and no one else comes close. Still waiting for Atari to make anything that is interesting. No I am not one to buy speakerhats and the 18th copy of yars revenge in a new box. If you are one of the ones that would eat atari crap there is something to offer. From what I can tell the company is limited to usa only and not selling in any store. Will likely go under in a couple years. Hopefully not taking atariage with it.
  12. This is horrible news. I can not think of a single positive from this. People must like control and less of anything good I am guessing. Like think about it. Everything will cost more. The games will have no platform to be created on as licensing issues will be looked at all the time. Programmers will likely be forced to sell under the Atari name or be banned. This is a good chance for someone to start another platform without corporate bs monitoring everything. RIP Atariage. Will always have 2013. The glory days are long gone.
  13. I am going to wait for whatever Eagle comes up with and it that becomes a thing.
  14. Motor Psycho 2 Desert Falcon 2 Midnight Mutants 2 Fatal Run 2 Double Dragon 2 The Motorcycle racing game or any car racing game as there has never been a homebrew touch a racing games yet.
