  1. Anyone catch how much the Cyberball went for?
  2. St. Louis. Drive was fine, Coco and others are set up, excited to be here after missing 2 years!
  3. Everything is packed up and ready to go into the car tomorrow for that lovely 6 hour drive. Can't wait!
  4. Remember those computer liquidation sales at fairgrounds in the 90's? That's where I bought my NIB Jag for $35. I was just out of college.
  5. That's similar to my first time seeing a 7800. A cousin got it for Christmas, when we already had NES at home. "What the heck is this, a new Atari? It kind of sucks!" I don't think I knew the 7800 existed when we already had an NES.
  6. I will once I finally put mine together! Pretty sad it's been sitting in the box since November. Haven't cleared a good spot for it yet.
  7. Atari 2600 owning kids (like me) saw Super Mario Brothers, Zelda and others, and were completely blown away. It was an amazing graphics and sound improvement. I was even familiar with with Colecovision and Intellivision games, and the Nintendo was way better than all of them.
  8. My favorite "old" fact is to say Star Trek the Next Generation is way older than the original series was when TNG came out. (67 vs 87) But in relation to the topic, I found this doc that I saved years ago, not a map, but maybe it is helpful. I've never tried it. Pretty sure I got it here, it's dated 2009.

  9. I think they were capacitors, if I remember my upgrade process with an original board 30 something years ago...
  10. If you just want to play games, 512k should be all you need. The Triad from Cloud9tech is a great product. Runs much cooler than the original upgrades from back in the day.
  11. Club forums?  Where did these come from?  Suddenly they are at the bottom of the main page for me, I never knew any of these existed.

      I never could get into those.   Interesting idea though.

  12. How do those Asus glasses work with the SMS? Is it the same plug?
  13. Wait, so @Songbird could I just pick up my order at MGC instead of paying for shipping? Or are you going to have a booth? Just checking...
  14. Yes, most of us are aware of the grading scam here.
  15. It was @BassGuitari that bought it, I know it!
  16. Have you not noticed the AtariAge store? Edit... Oh come on, CPUWiz... You probably had me beat by mere seconds.
  17. Looks like something @Benheck could build. I'd certainly like a matching gamepad. Probably can't have the logos on there though without getting Atari lawyers on your back.
  18. Now with using the activity streams, there seems to be even more Garfield posts, at least as far as posting ratio goes.
  19. Yeah, there used to be a "Classic Gaming General", which since it moved has kind of been going into "Classic Console Discussion" by default.
  20. Very cool, were you in the article or the video? Come on, dox yourself!
  21. How much for a H.E.R.O., since I just saw another related thread about that one? Also, what about that kitchen timer along with the Sesame Street aliens next to it?
  22. Tons of free play arcade, pinball, pretty much every gaming console that ever existed, and a big collection of old computers in the museum area, all set up for gaming on.
  23. Not well known, but the official active ingredient in Viagra is "Mycoxafloppin"

      Besides, there's no law saying you can't retell a joke you found funny.

      That reminds me of the suicide drug: "Effitol".

      I'm gonna retell this a few times and see if anyone accuses me of stealing it from thanatos
