  1. Sorry for not being around, fellas - been working odd hours, and now I need to jam to Vega$ - Mom's not telling me she likely has cancer, and it's time to kick her ass just in case she doesn't... ALl 3 games splash, then it freezes up and don't load. Someone had it apart before I did I swapped RAM chip locations and re-seated everything else. BRoke my DMM, so didn't measure supply voltages (sorry). YEs, it has the cover, 2 controllers, trak-ball etc. I am in SoCal about 30minutes South of Disneyland. I leave for Vega$ in 30 minutes. If someone wants to meet there, I can stuff it in the Jeep and drag it along for the ride. Gotta catch up on PM's though, I think I have a couple messages. Price? Make an offer - it's more important it goes to good vs. the scrap heap!
  2. Have a 4-port that won't completely boot, 2 standard controllers, TrakBall, RF switch, power supply, and 3 carts. PacMan, Space Invaders, and Centipede. All three have their overlays. There is an original box, but it has a rectangular cut-out piece in it (was there a contest / coupon on the boxes??!?!?), but if I have to ship it I'd rather pack things better than they fit in there. Let me know; I paid $10 at a garage sale for it, and don't have time to troubleshoot it.
  3. I Think I'd rather get this to someone who can use it. I just wanted to play PacMan / Space Invaders, and I can do that w/ PC emulation. for $10, I'm not out much, and if someone else can use it I'd rather they do. Barring that, it may simply be E-wasted if the wife complains about it. I'll probably put it back together today and box it up.
  4. So I haven't had much more time to play with this. Anyone want it? I'd rather it not to go waste, and can meet up with anyone who wants to play with it. I'm in Orange County, Ca - shipping is also a possibility, but would likely be a bit pricey, given the size of the box it came with.
  5. I popped the top on a 4-port 5200 unit; it will power on, hits the splash screen, then just either sits blank or flips to random colors / lines.. Someone's been in it before, as the screws required coaxing to get them out, and the RF shield was bent up as if it'd already been removed before. It has PacMan, Centipede, and Space Invaders carts, as well as 2 controllers and the trakball unit. Example below. https://youtu.be/3D1oEmuC9zg It seems the Space Invaders cart will be more colorful, and centipede has an animated bit where the game name slides off the screen. I have already tried swapping RAM chips to see if the failure mode will change with no luck, as well as scrubbing cart slot contacts with ammonia. before I go too far and ruin things, I'd rather ask if there may be a problem with the system ROM etc.
