  1. Just saw I had posted a couple of pics of Retro Magazines. Don't figure they are worth much.
  2. Hey everyone, long time. Just wondering what the market is like for the best dang magazine back in the day. (Game Doctor rules!) lol. Anyway, I have 2 of the harder to find buyers guides as well as the premiere issue in this pic, missing a few here and there but the ones in the photo are almost all near mint. Just wondering what the market is like for these now. I thought I had a 2nd complete set as well here someplace. I can't remember if I sold it years ago or not anymore. Any thought on the value of just the magazines. I did sell the rest a couple of years back. Thanks
  3. Better late then never on the reply right? Glad things turned out the way they did. Pretty cool. Thanks to those who got the dig and documentary going. I slightly remember the producers or somebody with the documentary emailed me wanted to know if I wanted to be interviewed for a clip or something, too long ago. I passed. Guess they got my info from the thread. I'm sure others on here got the same offer. Will have to check back in a few years again.
  4. Has anyone realized that this thread is over 10 years old now? I put this video together and put it on you tube. It's the videos I made back in 2005 that goes with the broken links in the beginning of this thread. Back in the days of uploading at 28k and everyone worried it was an April fools joke???
  5. Great job Marty! Would be interested in seeing the other pictures he is talking about that he took. Also great job on writing Atari: Business is Fun. I will probably be reading it again soon.
  6. Couldn't find a clean image to use but pulled this Fireworld off a cart. Will look for a better quality image when i have more time.
  7. 3 more I thought looked cool. Rescue is a 5200 game but oh well.
  8. Again, there is a story in this months issue of Retro video game magazine written by Marty Goldburg called Buried Truth. Very insightful. Also a great magazine. http://shopreadretro.com/products/retro-videogame-magazine-issue-6?source_app=embed&referer=http://readretro.com/?s=buried+truth
  9. Moonsweeper, Dragonfire, ET, and hot babe from Atari Force
  10. Ok one more, these is fun to make. Not Atari but I think a good one. I had trouble with the top getting cropped out though. Soooo. How much does licensing for old images from Atari cost now days? I believe these would sell.
  11. Millipede turned out great. Good idea.
  12. I saw an Adventure dragon on a mouse pad on some website and thought that Atari had some great box art. I made a few up using Shutterfly and MS paint. Also one as a nod to the landfill thread : ^ ) What other games do you think would look good?
  13. Just kidding. I've followed the dig and documentary like everyone else. It's great it finally happened. This may be discussed already, but I haven't read everything recently here. There is a great story in this issue of Retro that has the facts from the guy that arranged the burial that worked for Atari.
  14. Have I missed anything exciting in the past year and an half?
  15. If anyone is interested, I put 4 videos up on Photobucket. They have been in the I have proof landfill thread before but I think all those links have been broken for a while. Two are of the interview with a city employee talking about the Atari dumping and what he remembers as a kid back then. It's broken into two parts for my uploading back in the day with a 28.8k modem. Another is Edward showing on a map where the landfill is. The last video is me driving to the landfill. Enjoy my redneck accent! http://s679.photobucket.com/user/Spudboy2/library/atari?sort=4&page=1
