    My problem with penny stocks is usually one of volume. Obviously it varies by stock, but sometimes (or even often) it seems everybody's ready to sell a penny stock so buying is never an issue, but then when it goes up, it can be hard to sell...

    Stuff.  Volume Pi. 

    -Atari 5200s are big!

    -All my seat belts seems like they need to be flipped over

    -the Best Animes are Cowboy Bebop,  Death Note, FLCL, and Happīhappī tanoshī jikan sekkusu kōi burokkorībiggumamarobotto

    -I may have made up that last one

    -Google Translate is fun

    -mar sin do mhàthair

    -Iced Tea is Great... and usually needs no sugar,  but U can put some in yours

    -Dark Cavern is Great.

    -AI is a blast!

    -Life's too short to Like and Subscribe,...I mean maybe one or the other if ya make it fast

    -TRON is Great!  As a Movie,  an Arcade game, and an Atari Game...Plus probably for Intellivision, but I don't have one

    -Socks are only comfortable on the foot part if ya get the Big & Tall ones,  But then they come up over your kneecaps like you're 70+ years old

    -Socks:  Stop trying to strangle my legs!  I just want socks that don't fall down,  In fact,  you can fall down all you want if quit strangling my GD legs!

    -When someone asks what's your favorite homebrew? and U answer with a beer,  and then they explain they meant video game,  You can answer Why not Both?

    -Some Corvettes are as cool as Dodge Vipers...(C7s and C8s)

    -Q-Doba:  Your nachos are Awesome!  But your chips suck!  They're saltier than the Devil's balls!  How 'bout offering a No Salt or Low Salt variant?  Tired of going to Q-Doba and then having to make sure I can supply my own chips **grumble grumble***

     

    CHEERS!

      My responses to a few:

       

      - My mother is a saint! (Yes, I translated)

      - I have never liked or subscribed to any Youtube channel.  I browse not logged in. I have the ones I like bookmarked.  Previews with a guy doing "O" face is an instant not watch.

      - Tron Arcade is one of my favorite games.  I miss the one I used to own.  I sold it knowing it would eventually not work - someone else's problem.  The movie is also great.  I love Tron Legacy and occasionally still watch it on my still working 3DTV with glasses.

      - I would take a '63 split window Corvette over a Viper.  But not the new ones, I would take a base '92 Viper.

      - Chipotle's steak is way better than Qdoba's.  Never had a complaint about the chips from either side.

    So I decided to take the plunge and give new atari a chance.  I like the Retro Products.  Good on them.  I went to the website, signed up,  got the code (15% off - ALLEGEDLY)...I put 11 Items in my "Bag",  which I assume is a Shopping Cart, and there's no way to CHECK OUT!

     

    The "Bag" doesn't scroll (mouse or arrows) and only shows the top 3 products...I can't even see my total!   If there's a way to check out I can't find it.  I've been all over that website!  I contacted them so we'll see what they say.

     

    ATM I guess "Atari" doesn't want my money.

      Well that's a duh :D  lolol 
      I like the look of their stuff...but even with current insane inflation, some of that pricing is absolutely outrageous.  
      Especially the little desktop art things, yikes.

      Also, I really loved RollerCoasterTycoon back in the day.  But not enough to have ever imagined the line of goodies they have available for it!  If only all my favorite games had that level of merch, jeebus.

      Update: They told me to clear cookies/cache and try again.  When I came back my 11 items were gone!  It's all reset (On that computer).  I don't want to guess what I would have bought now,  besides I was in a  good mood at that point.  Not remembering what 11 things was half the fun...Nope!  I'll check this computer and see what happens (this one hasn't been reset)...I'm not buying 11 things this time around if it's not there...

      Other Update:  It cleared and my mouse wheel would bring up the checkout button,  but as my 11 items disappeared on this computer too,  I only bought 7 items.  Their website should have worked while I was in a good mood.  Besides I just paid up my phone for a year...And I'm gonna get a Coleco Game,  whoa Nevermind on that.  Those who know,  got the email today,   Looks Fun!

    Did anyone else get an email from JUDGE.ME asking for a review of something from the AtariAge Store?  For all I know Atari is working with this company,  but they asked for a review of something I bought 11 years ago!  (They thought I bought it 14 days ago)  And it is signed  Thanks, The AtariAge Team.  I just want to make sure this isn't some scam...

      Not a hack, this was an email accidentally sent from the new store we're using.  Judge.me is a plugin that handles reviews (and you'll be able to reply to reviews now, include pictures, and so forth, so it'll be a lot nicer in the new store as far as reviews go).  You can safely ignore the email.

    I don't think they'll give you a 10 if there's a crack in it.

    I was thinking on this too. Of course, it could depend on the use of the word "Hardware". I think in days past even controllers were considered hardware. So my quick thoughts were: An arcade cabinet (could be anything from a 1-Up type mini to full sized, or tabletop like your guess), a VR-like device where the screen is inside goggles or something (even as I consider this option very unlikely), or an Arcade controller to pair with the VS. These are just guesses...I'd love to see an Arcade stick, or tabletop or cabinet, especially with a rotating monitor!
  10. GoldLeader
    Hopefully, it's something that's compatible with everything else...(The Controller says VS/VS-R/Alpha on the box, for instance)... Speaking of...I want to order some of those controllers! They'll match my Founder's VS!!
  11. GoldLeader
    Those are really cool!...Now, I don't know much about MAME. I mean I know what it is, but with very little practical experience. So I assume you can just change the backdrops in Space Invaders? (Or maybe it's more complicated, but with some effort, it can be done?) I "made" these with AI. Feel free to use any of them if you wish or if you want to see what they look like.
  12. GoldLeader
    A Perfect game IMHO! For me DARK CAVERN will likely Always be the Most played game for 2600 Ever! (I sometimes play the Night Stalker version as well). I think I'm hopelessly addicted to it at times. I hope the 2600+ version plays true; Simply meaning if the robots can stick to the side walls and evade a shot, That is a glitch which happens in Emulation, but Never on the real cart. Has anyone noticed that happening? I've had it happen on the Flashback (unfortunately)... Even if I play some homebrews and some other games, or check out some ROMs etc., I often find myself coming back to Dark Cavern for one more game!
  13. GoldLeader
    That'd be Awesome if he was working on a sequel to Yars' Revenge for Atari (2600)!!
  14. GoldLeader
    That's just who they want you to think.
  15. GoldLeader
    I believe the code name was the Revolution Shmevolution, but that wasn't bad enough so they changed it.
