Ok, that's hardcore... I've never gotten to play the arcade version! I've always wanted one of the home versions, so I was very happy with this find!

Found this at the local V-Stock recently. Note the post-it "video does not work". My assumption was everyone working there was too young to know it plugged into RF. When I asked them to get it out of the case the guy said "When we plugged it in, the TV blinked like it was trying to display an image, but we couldn't get it to work." Well, for $10 I figured it was worth it just for the box. Aaaaand, guess what? :-) It is a bit flakey though, had to nudge the power switch a bit. Probably nothing a good cleaning won't take care of.

I found an Atariage lanyard that someone made for the Midwest Gaming Classic a few years back. It has my General Zod profile pic on it, I'll try to remember to wear it tomorrow.

Anyone planning on going? I think I'm going to try to make it Saturday afternoon sometime.

Ah, the glorious Pentium and Voodoo 2 days! Good times. Of course the truly hardcore would buy a 2nd one so you can run in SLI!

Work In Progress: "Bentley Bear: Crystal Quest"
thanatos replied to PacManPlus's topic in Atari 7800
Ah crap. Wish I hadn't procrastinated on getting this one! -

Are YouTubers Ruining Retro Gaming?
thanatos replied to NinjaWarrior's topic in Classic Console Discussion
And the F1 is driving up the price of what would otherwise be just an ancient 90's laptop. http://jalopnik.com/this-ancient-laptop-is-the-only-key-to-the-most-valuabl-1773662267 -
Just buy one of these and it can be whatever you want.

If I won the lottery and needed something to occupy my time, I'd be all over this. There was a working Space War on my local craigslist recently, but that one is just too old/rare for me to buy. Once it broke I'd probably be screwed.

I'm planning on going at least one day. It'll be weird going to a convention not having an exhibitor badge and hauling my CoCo setup though!

New ArsTechnica article with not much info... https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2017/07/ataribox-mini-console/

Got to play this at the MGC, I thought it was very cool! A local arcade bar that just opened a couple months ago is getting one of their tour stops in August.

Heh, I thought of this joke last night and didn't post it... "But then Custodian is no longer CIB!"

Coleco Chameleon .... hardware speculations?
thanatos replied to phoenixdownita's topic in Modern Console Discussion
I remember looking at their website years ago, totally forgot about that thing! It may have been as soon as they started taking orders. I think my reaction was "No way would I put up that much in advance." At least unlike the Chameleon, there appeared to be 'real' prototypes. -
Very Strange Error Today on "Classic Gaming General"
thanatos replied to Bartsfam's topic in Site and Forum Feedback
You appear to be connected to a WiFi network in your screenshot. And the bottom says "Shark UTM", which looks to be some sort of network security appliance. -
Plug & Play HELL - is ANYone into these things?
thanatos replied to Good_Times's topic in Buy, Sell, and Trade
How old is that Superman figure? I had one as a kid, and it looks similar from what I remember. -
I dunno, since "THERE ARE FIVE OTHER GAMES ON EACH CARTRIDGE"...

I'm not big on texting strangers, but I can try shooting an email if he doesn't get back with you guys. But it's further away than I first assumed (thought it was a local suburb), like an hour+ away. With my work schedule I doubt I'd be able to go for a couple weeks.

I may be closer than toiletunes if he is not able to pick them up. Not sure I could get them this weekend though.

Ran across this one... Maybe a good deal for a homebrew maker? https://stlouis.craigslist.org/vgm/6205251358.html
