  1. Looking forward to getting the SuperSketch protectors:

    https://hoskinson-industries.myshopify.com/products/super-sketch-box-protector?_pos=4&_sid=3ec0b4d4a&_ss=r

     

    Is this one coming soon? Commodore 64 Frogger 2 Game Box Protector [156x33x231mm] Is it the regular Parker Brothers box like the ones for the Atari 8-bit Home Computer?

     

    I’m thought that someone said your Donkey Kong Protectors fit Atari Home Computer Qix?

    Atari 400/800 Qix Game Box Protector [196x25x268mm]

    I’m also looking for protectors for the Atari 400/800 large black game boxes.

     

     I will check if your C64 Adventure Creator box is the same size as the Atari 8-bit

    It is very small chance near zero that someone will resign his limited edition soundtrack. I shipped almost all of them, and no one resigned.

     

    Two and three copies will cost the same for shipping. It is because there is constant price for weight 0,5kg to 1kg. Two copies weight is about 0,6kg and three copies weight is about 0,9kg. The cost depends of the destination country. For example it will be about 12USD to Europe, 14USD to America and 20USD to Australia.
    Only for small packages there is one price 7USD to all the world. So to some countries it is better to ship each one copy separate.

     

    And one more option is if the destination country is Poland from I'm shipping the packages, then I can ship any number of copies for about 5USD to any place in Poland:-)

    OK as long as the shipping is the same for 2 or 3 I'll get 3 standard to USA. If anyone does change their mind about the soundtrack version, please let me know.

     

    Thank you.

    So... If anyone´s interested. :)

     

    After some research and some HUGE help from Dan Godkin from www.retroprotection.com i´ve managed to find some amazing fixes for some of those bizarre carts.

     

    (BTW, what a great guy Dan is. Really helpful and polite. I truly recommend him)

     

    Star Raiders: Super Smash Bros protector. Excellent fit in two dimensions.

    Star Raiders: Super Smash Bros protector. Excellent fit in two dimensions.... Do you have alink to the provider and the specific Super Smash Brothers protector?

  4. Welcome! Thanks for passing on your memories. I've found that Atari 8-bits have been a good stress reliever through life's struggles and that AtariAge members have kept up supportive human contact through the years and COVID-19 lockdowns. 

  5. It's so sad to hear that. Hopefully some of them may have survived. It was a nice collection of MSXs. I know someone who would have liked that Commodore SX-64 in their collection. Such a nice person to have shared his passion with the next generation. It is a loss but only a loss of things, the loss of life is more precious and more disheartening. I pray for their freedom and peace trough-out the world. We need to grow beyond physical conflict and learn to use our words and to understand even if the grass is greener on the other side of the fence, it isn't ours to take.

  6. The white carts with black text silver labels are bootlegs. They came in black boxes labeled in gold text “FANTASTIC GAME”. A small silver label with black text had the same name as the cartridge. The boxes note the 2600 system not XL nor XE so the bootleggers probably made more Atari 2600 bootlegs.

  7. Thank you for joining.

     

    What you have pictured are Review and Engineering copies. Without examining the contents, it is difficult to say which are the release versions. The engineering copies were sent to the chip manufacturer that made the PROM integrated circuit chips for the cartridges so I would guess they may be final versions. As mentioned above there is no telling with the Atariwriter unless its contents are examined. Review copies were usually release versions, but sometime prototypes sent to magazine writers and other reviewers. If they got bad feedback they would redo the game and send out a newer version. If you have different dates the earlier ones would be prototypes.

    Because Florida is 1 among 4 states in the Union with an annual GDP larger than U.S. $1.0 trillion, because it is the #1 state in the union with the higher-population growth (being N.Y. the #1 loser together with California), because it is very well managed, it is fiscally a SURPLUS state (runs a positive budget balance yearly), it has AAA credit-rating (thus being able to issue debt at the lowest possible interest rates), because you don't pay State Taxes (among the 8 states left in the union where you don't), and because it is an endless summer, and on, and on...

     

    That's why.

    OOOOOOHHHHH.  Did I just read some politics between those lines.  If I had posted that, I would have been reprimanded, or banned.   Shaaaaaammmme.....

    I can't see any reason to reprimand nor ban someone in those comments. What do you see that you consider remotely political? The answer stated an opinion as to why people may retire in Florida. Comparing the economies, taxes, etc. of the states to say which is better based on statistics isn't political. In those cases the good or bad economies are affected by those who manage them. The managers are elected, is that the political point you are stretching to reach? I don't live in either place, who are the managers?

    Started a Google Drive doc that we can all start contributing to and sharing with others who may not have an atariage account.

     

    Let me know what you think about that format.  Only done with 2600 and 5200 so far, but want to include everything all the way up to current gen systems.

     

    @stupus  that Fire Emblem Echoes 3ds box fits Bounty Bob perfectly.  Allows the hang tab to be fully extended.

    Can you please add the dimensions of the boxes that fit in them? That way if we have similarly sized boxes we’ll know which to buy. If you sort the list by box sizes, all we would need to do is measure our box then find a protector on the list that is closest and order from the recommended seller.
