      That sign was always on the video game/pinball that I really wanted to play!

  5. I had no idea Lou Reed did a song about arcades "Down at the arcade"

      retrorussell

      Yeah, it's pretty awful :)

  6. Picked up a DE Secret Service pinball. Be a while before I get it together.

  7. I'm good at the arcade game 1946. Why? No enemy planes show up!

      Chrome? There's your problem. Most people stopped using that 2 years ago and went back to Firefox. :D

  11. The guy doing the Intellivision Flashback upgrade kits lives in Minnesota too? I noticed umn.edu

  12. Started watching "The Riches", I like none of these characters.

      orpheuswaking

      I think that's the point

  13. If I start a band, I'll name our first album "____'s greatest hits". Then every song would be a hit!

      The only record stores within 1 hour of me are Goodwill stores. The vinyls there are pretty scruffed and probably not playable but good for melting into bowls.

  14. Where has the Battlestar Galactica "Base star" been used outside of BSG? I swore I saw it in video games.

    1. Master Phruby

      Master Phruby

      Don't forget the Klingon Bird of Pray and TIE Fighter. How did Atari not get sued over the TIE fighter?

    2. Tickled_Pink

      Tickled_Pink

      Or Exidy for that matter.

    3. xucaen

      xucaen

      just a guess, I don't think they got sued because the image detail was so low that they didn't care.. In that link about Space Attack, it said it Mattel had license to make BSG toys and assumed they could make a video game, but then they found out they didn't have license to make video games, so they changed the name and kept the graphics the same. No one noticed so no one cared.

      I saw a Doctor Who set and had to fight temptation HARD, and I don't even have the game!

  16. Use your instagram to post to your twitter, which will then post to your instagram, and then easily cc it to your twitter! Also, share it with facebook!

  17. Hi everyone, I'm launching a KickStarter just for this status update. #hashtag #celebration

      jaybird3rd

      Will it come in exclusive colors? Can I pay $100 extra to get a low serial number?

    2. Keatah

      Keatah

      What about fonts?

  18. Does anyone feel dizzy/light headed when winter turns to spring, like around now? I am.

      I take an allergy pill, so nope.

      Depends on how fast it changes

  19. Why do I have to buy an adaptor to play 2600 games on my 5200? That's just nickel and diming #retrogaming1stworldproblems

    1. Atarian7

      Atarian7

      Getting a 2600 or 7800 is probably cheaper than buying the adaptor.

    2. Master Phruby

      Master Phruby

      Where is that 2600 adapter for the Atari 400?

    3. SoundGammon

      SoundGammon

      Never made sense to me, I didn't buy a 5200 to play 2600 games! Same with 7800.

  20. I can't wait to pick up my new Atari Cheetah! It has an S-video port on it!

  21. They should make a porno that takes place in a building called "Elevator Action"

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Haha, I used to have a coin op Elevator Action.

  22. Hey everyone! I'm now selling advertising in the Coleco Chameleon thread. Sure, you can do it yourself, but you could instead pay me to do it for you.

    1. CGQuarterly

      CGQuarterly

      For all of the clicks that certain folks are generating for their sites/YouTube channels, they could at least be subscribers here. One guy is getting so much traffic that he had to upgrade servers. Wonder what he will do when there's no more drama to capitalize on?

    2. Albert

      Albert

      /me goes to look at the forum ad settings.

      Colo Colo Colo Colo Colo Cha-me-le-onnnn. Buy ads and goooooo, buy ads and goooo-oh-ohhh-ohhh.

      Sounds like a worthy endeavor.

      That 2600 died on the operating table months ago.
