  1. I am looking for a used ColecoVision USB 128-in-one multi-cart (Atarimax); also a roller controller for the CV.
  2. Thank you very much. Thant was just what I needed. -Christian
  3. I am trying to find a good ColecoVision database to reference reviews of games and other misc. info. Digital Press seems to have a pretty good list but reviews are few and far between. Anybody know any good ones:?:
  4. I honestly do not know. I have several. The last trade I did, I threw one in because I still had room in the box. To me they are worth a cart or two. Got anything to trade? I am still looking for 400/800/xe floppies, carts and tapes as well as lynx games, a sun shade and wico 5200 joystick stuff.
  5. The description is hilariously descriptive. To preempt the inevitable cries of foul, I just want to make clear that my previous comment was not really a snide attack at religion (although I am not particularly religious.) Mr. Slater and I happen to share the same first name, and the comment is a witty barb that my wife uses to playfully get under my skin.

    Wico woes

    Does your stick look like this?: or does it look like this?:

    Wico woes

    I may be misconstruing what I read in your initial question, but do you have a photo of the joystick. If it has a 9 pin plug, I suspect that it is for a 2600. The 5200 Wico would have a 15 pin plug, IIRC.
  8. Better sound. Worse graphics...usually. Anyone know if Karateka released for the 5200, or was it just the 8 bit computer line? No Karateka for 5200, as far as I know.
  9. Of the homebrews I have, this is my favorite. I have always been a fan of Venture on the CV (not so much Atari.) The theme of this one is really cool. I never knew about the original Wolfenstein stuff, so I thought when I ordered this one, it was going to have something to do with werewolves. I was not dissapointed though. enjoy!
  10. Actually it seems like more often than not a pallet of NIB rare-title-of-the-month will appear and plunge the value of said game.
  11. I have the very same issue, which looks exactly like the photo referenced in the link. I never have resolved it. I have tried it on 7 different consoles, 2 heavies, light 4 and 6 switch, Vader, jr, and a 7800. The only one with a slight lessening of the effect was the 7800.
  12. I made an error when I put the Limited Edition version of the game in the store and added 10 copies too many (forgetting that I had reserved copies 1 - 10 for those who worked on the game). I had intended to have 10 extra copies of the Limited Edition (numbers 241-250), but because of my error had to use every single last number and now I do not have a SINGLE extra copy. You received the last numbered copy, #8. Enjoy! ..Al I just hope nobody's feelings are hurt on account of I am a relative newbie with absolutely no connection to the project. I do have to add that I am impressed with the tight control I get with the stock controllers, way more so than the beta version I have on my flash cart. Thanks to all who contributed. My hat is off to you all! lowscore
  13. I just received mine. I have # 8 and I feel like I won the lottery. Thank you Albert!
  14. I have encountered exactly the same problem with range of stick movement and when I opened it up, I found the bottom pot actually came unglued and was tipping, which interfered with the block. I used a piece of heavy duty double sided tape (presumably for carpet laying) to affix the pot securely and the problem was solved.
  15. I'm not sure,how can you tell or know if the characters in the game are MARRIED OR NOT? The married ones are the ones NOT having sex. (Bada-Bum)
  16. Surprisingly no! He left the following, apparently even though he thinks I am an ass he LOVES Sand Mountain. "+For blessed old Alabama, and sand mountain, my mother's home, and her people." Ain't that a kicker? Asshole or not, anyone with that much love for Ole Sandy cannot be ALL bad WP With so many fans of the place, I believe I must find a way to get below the Mason/Dixon sometime soon. It is the one area of our country I have never explored.
  17. Did the guy respond to your neutral with a neg along with his nasty comments? This has happened to me, and is probably one of the most irritating things about the feedback system IMO.
  18. Other than the real thing, the Wico Bat is my favorite (after I filed off the raised letters that say "top." which have left blisters more than once.)
  19. I have these items available for trade. I am looking for 800/XE/XL carts and floppies to play on my XEGS. I am also looking for LYNX games, a LYNX I battery cover, power supply, power pack and sun-shade for either a I or II. I also would like a 5200 redemption, or 5200 wico joystick with y-cable. The List: Atari Jr., console only, works CX-10 joystick no hex, does not work K-Byte Stick-Stand in box, never used with orange knob. (I have several) Atari VCS carts, all loose: Popeye Spider-man Frogger Cosmic Ark Journey Escape Space Attack X 2 Congo Bongo Winter Games Fast Food Donkey Kong Solar Fox Omega Race (no booster grip) Blueprint Wizard of Wor Starmaster Kaboom! SpiderFighter Hunt & Score Code Breaker Basic Programming Pole Position Haunted House Street Racer Pac-Man Yar's Revenge E.T. Centipede Video Pinball Basketball x2 Asteroids Space Invaders S.Q. Fireworld (no end label) Boxed (a little ragged at the top) Pac-Man Breakout Combat Atari ProSystem carts, loose Pole Position II Karateka P.M. me if you have interest and something to trade. I would not be against trading part of or the whole lot for a reasonable exchange if you have some of the things I want. Thanks. Christian
  20. Cool idea. It should only be slightly larger than a Lynx. I wonder if that Ben Heck has tried it yet.
  21. Are you finished yet?, because it seems like your only intention is to act like a prick to anybody that disagrees with you. Do you get Marlboro miles or AA coupons or something for winning the "I got the last word before I got a thread locked after being bilious and contradictory to anybody that will respond" award? I swear I have seen you do it a dozen times in the short time I have been here, junior. All it has accomplished is that you sour the whole community experience by pissing where you eat. Just go away. You ,sir, are a tedious bore.
  22. Hallaluia! I found the reason! 7800 centipede, team play with the Old Lady. Being a gentleman, I let her use the awesome Wico trak-ball while I used the iffy Atari ball in joystick mode. We did this instead of going out on Saturday. She must have hit reset 200 times. It was the most fun I have had since the roller rink at 11 years old. This is just the best version I have played of this game since then. Yay for the Pro-System! We feel like Pros!
