    Staple - you remind me of Jimmy two-times, from Goodfellas!  

    "I'm gonna go get the papers, get the papers"

     

    dont ever call me jimmy

    my world history teacher called me jim and when he went in for hip surgery we passed around a get well soon card and i wrote "get well soon dick (his name was richard(im not that mean)) love jim"

    needless to say he started calling me james for a few weeks anyway

     

    eh, but oh well no hard feelings really

    i realize this has probably already been discussed but i couldnt find anything about it in the archieves so here it is again

     

    what do you think is the best way to store carts

    when i got my 2600 it came with a little thing to hold like 10 and a bunch of manuals

    and right now my collection is just too big to stack up and i dont really want to put them into a shoe box unless i have to

    i also remember having a tower for carts when i was a kid (much like cd towers you can buy today)

    it held 40 or so and spun around but alas i cant find one of those anymore

    any help would be greatly appreciated

    in the PVP comic youll notice the kid is using what sems to be a ps2 or x box contorller, not an atari one! so this leads me to think its a classic compilation for  a modern system, rather than the dad keeping his vcs around... maybe thats too indepth, but hey what else can the internet provide other than a place to point out inaccuracies?

     

    dont sweat it

    i saw it too but you beat me to posting it

    blast you

    but seriously, good show old sport ;)

    There is NO WAY IN HELL, pitfallaimee would look like a man from 500 feet away, much less 5.

     

    settle down man

    i wasnt sayin she would. cuz anyone whos looked at these boards for any amount of time knows that ms pitfallaimee is revered like a goddess and rightly so (from what ive read of her posts she seems very nice, intelligent, caring,&c. (the list could go on but this post is getting kinda lengthy))

    so any misconception because of what i said is deeply regreted

    a thousand most sincere and humble apologies mr StanJr but most of all to ms pitfallaimee if i (from my last post) caused you any grief or discomfort i am truly sorry from the deepest bowels of my heart

     

    i was only saying that when we go reenacting here in Republica we are equal opprotunists and thus we let women dress up like soldiers and play gi joe

    As a chick, naturally, I have to a civilian. It's still pretty cool, though!

     

    really?

    that sucks we have at least 4 or 5 girls that dress up and play soldier with us

    we go by the five foot rule

    if they look like a man from five feet away then theyre good :)

    WILL THIS SHOW NEVER DIE!  I would like the Anitques Roadshow to fall in a hole. :x

     

    why so harsh on the roadshow man

    i rather enjoy the show and seeing the looks on ppls faces when they think they got somethin real good and its worth like 50 bucks

     

    one time i saw this chick who thought she had this old civil war pistol but the guy showed her it was a reenacting remake made in italy

    gave me quite a chukle considering im a reenactor :D

    I like the comic's, keep them coming so I can laugh until milk comes out of my nose.

     

    dude, you dont wanna do that

    i did it once on accident and all i smelt the rest of the day was spoiled milk

    it wasnt pretty

    thats a great story

    reminds me of myself except mine usually involved gi joes or star wars figs

    when i got my atari for christmas (last year infact) my mom wouldnt let me open it until i had only it and a few games to open i knew right away it was a gaming system but figured it was the dreamy PS2 but alas i knew right away what it was once i saw it was from my gandma and i tore it open

    i popped open the box and there was the heavy 6 switch woody of hers that she had actually given up so i could be happy the smell that wafted out of that box will be forever memorable

    needless to say i rushed upstairs with my new/old treasure and immediately began to play pitfall and asteroids again

    god bless ya g'ma :D

    i remember those days with my brothers

    usually it was me sitting there watching them try to beat pitfall II and then hitting me when one of those blasted condors nailed them

    ah...those were the days :)

    i cant believe we all forgot about the pitfall remake pitfall the mayan adventure for snes

    i myself never played but have only heard rave reviews about it and i do know that it did have a secret so you could play the original pitfall

    and i do believe theres been a raiders remake for the snes too

    i think it came as a cart with big scenes from the other movies

    i never played that one either and dont really know how much of the movie it covers

    that sucks dude

    there was a yard sale just down the street from me today

    i really wanted to go there but i had to go on a twenty mile hike

    i just saw those old ladies lookin around and thought about my local game dealer and how he might go pawin around through there slidin his grimy hands through his greasy hair and find some great games and then charge me outrageously for them

    ha but the jokes on him ill just go to sfield and rumage around the huge rubbermaid containers there full of carts and get some good ones for only $1.00 a piece

    revenge is sweet no matter how stupid...

    the only one i can really remember playing was ESB and since thats like my all time favorite atari game id have to say that ones the best

     

    theres just something about it when the theme plays and youre invincible for just that long...

    The new remakes don't interest me. Playing the new games are not like playing the originals.

     

    thats kinda the point

    its not supposed to be like playing the originals

    its to give it a twist and a fresh new feel

    theyre supposed to be new games but still the games we love

    i agree totally with you guys that nothing can compare to the original games

    however, sometimes its fun to see your classic games given more life

    they can be given more depth, more story, another chance to connect with the youth of today

    it gives a way for new gamers to bond with the old gamers and for the classic titles to live on

    mario was fun game, why are there so many more mario games?

    because it was enjoyable and the programers kept making more so that one day the kids playing mario now could relate to the kids playing mario then

    and how many of the atari games are enjoyable?

    ive played the namco museums and the gamboy arcade classics and i enjoyed the 3d tour of classic gaming and the different ways i could play joust or defender but i guess i just want more from my old titles

  23. Posted

    with some of the remakes of the classics like frogger, asteroids, and centipede that have come out for the newer consoles like PSX i was wonderin what you guys thought of em and if youd like to see more

    i personally would like to see a remake of bezerk in a first person shooter style with more guns and robots and somethin else besides a blasted happy face for otto

    and of course thered be a way to get to the classic games
