Hmmmm,
See, to Me, Star Castle was that one Dream Game above all others BITD, If I really had to choose* (I got it!@@!!) so...Dream realized...Now I do think I'll eventually buy Super Cobra (Why not?, got the original BITD, when they sent the Atari version, even though I'd ordered the ColecoVision version (True Story)) and of course GORF!
* I also really wanted Phoenix (Done) and Astro Blaster was right up there...(Playing Now on my 7800)...Plus "Space Rocks" of course...

Been a few weeks now at the gym. Feeling good I guess. So as a former welder of 25 years, as I pause for a break, I see myself looking at the welds on these machines "atrocious" I wonder to myself and say; how the hell has this thing not broke apart yet!!!???

March 16th, 1982 Pacman fever ran wild!
-
I remember that so well. My friend said to come over, he'd just got Pac-Man! I hung out with him and his brother playing it on Atari VCS for a while, then when my mom came home from work I asked her to take me to the store to buy it (Yes, even though I'd played it,... So much hype on this one, but we still had no idea when it'd hit the stores). Instantly it seemed to be sold out Everywhere. We went to 3 stores before finding it! Ironically I found it at a store called 'Pay and Save' and spent $37.95 on it!! (Which was more than I'd ever spent on a video game up to that point). I still have it of course

Went to the gym after a hand full of years! Felt like a wet noodle after workout. 60 bucks a month for membership. Sorry guys, Gorf Arcade will have to wait a bit longer.

@Atarian7 ugh! Butt since I live outside the big city, and work in a small town where the gym is a hopscotch away from work, figured it was a good idea at the time! Fuck!!!

Hi! I was wondering if you have a few mins to spare and to talk about Atari and all of it glorious wonder!? No? Then the hell with you.

Actually when I was about 12 or 13 I Did have bell bottoms! Even crazier, but true; They were this bright pastel green color! I also got a go-kart for Christmas one year...And I was wearing those pants when my brother drove it...I was on the passenger side and he turned so sharply, I was flung off but the knobby tire left a black skidmark down my bell bottomed jeans! Pretty sure we threw them out after that.

I always liked Gobots! They were all the same size, they were all cars, and it made sense. With Transformer toys, you had a boom box the size of a car, that was the size of a plane. Madness. I didn't know that was a Sears thing, though, I assumed they were from some other competing toy/cartoon company.
-
@BydoEmpire I liked Gobots too! We never had the Transformers cartoon here...The actual joke (from the movie CLerks II I think) is "Everybody knows Gobots is the K-Mart's Transformers". (probably paraphrasing)...Cebus already used K-mart so I threw Sears in there. Just one of those jokes like I make...You know the kind. Nobody laughs...Nobody knows what the hell I'm talking about..Oh except people who are drinking or just woke up (There's my people!)

Atari grossed $415 million in 1978.

I saw these offers a couple of weeks ago. Started in Brazil and then spread to North America. It seems to be a Brazilian seller, maybe @Capellão or @DablioGames know him. From the position of the SD-Card it looks like it uses the DIY board by @Andrew Davie, but it could also be a custom board.
What I don't like about most of this seller's listings is the title. He mixes every buzzword from UnoCart, PlusCart to Harmony together, instead of just calling it a PlusCart Duo (by iPlay).
