    Pretty easy going guy. When I'm not playing video games, I enjoy fishing, reading, watching movies and general merriment. Like a lot of people my first system was an Atari 2600, then later down the line my family got an Atari 7800. Grew up playing video games my whole life. Got into the 5200 about 12 years ago and have come to enjoy and adore it.
  • Currently Playing
    Desert Falcon on the 7800, Ms Pac-Man on the 5200 and Spider-Man on the PS4.
  • Playing Next
    Rampage on the 7800 has been calling my name recently.

  1. Not to thread hijack, but do we think third party controllers will work with the 2600+? I'd love to know my Edladdin controller will work with it.
  2. Are you folks looking for anything specific? Or just anything off the chart showing untested? I know I'm not the only one, but I'll be at PRGE all weekend. Happy to contribute 😁
  3. I've said it before, but I am excitedly (and patiently) looking forward to the new 5200 stick. Edladdin's 7800 stick made my good Atari gaming to an even higher level. To have a similar product for my favorite Atari system? Sky's the limit!
  4. I'm pretty sold on the RAD2X. Looking forward to them becoming available again.
  5. Great job on the paddle controller. It looks quite ingenious.
  6. This is one heck of a collection. I'm not sure I've seen the clear case before. This is a prototype she'll, yes? Very cool.
  7. I second this. Happy for the Coleco crowd, but envious of the Phoenix. I'd love to to see an equivalent happen for the 5200, as unlikely as that may be.
  8. This sounds great. I need to move the Atarimax cart higher up my priority list. I'd love to see how this plays on the 5200.
  9. Dual Masterplay Interfaces? Beautiful sight.
  10. Something I was wondering regarding properly balanced Pokey audio. Like others, games using a Pokey chip are quite a bit quieter on my composite modded 7800. At the time my mod was done I was under the impression this is just how it had to be. Not terrible to just adjust the volume, but having everything operating as intended would be great.
  11. I say take your time, I'm a patient man. We'll all be ready to play when you decide it's all good to go.
  12. That's pretty interesting. I definitely see the pros and cons of each. I'm very content with my composite modded 7800, though it makes me think I should do an s-video mod if I ever get another 7800.
  13. Exciting indeed. Unfortunately/fortunately I'm a self proclaimed luddite and do not own a PC. I do look forward to getting a copy to play though. I like the art style and am a fan of the music.
  14. Ya know, a year or two ago I gave some serious thought to selling off my 5200 and picking up a 400 or 800 series computer. Ultimately (and thankfully) I couldn't go through with it and kept the 5200. I have respect for the Atari 8 bit computers, but for me, they're just lacking that magic.
