CraigsList "Come On" Moment

[CraigsList "Come On" Moment]

I've seen some Crazy Craiglist Ads, but mainly about people tryin' to sell Cars.

 

Living in Honduras made Difficult to me to buy anything from Craiglist, but sometimes I Purchase things from e-Bay, Amazon and other sites.

 

In Latin America, people refered to the Atari Cartridges in two ways, depending on the Years, let me Explain:

 

In the Late 1970's Decade to the Late 1980's Decade, People called them "Cartuchos" which is the Spanish word for Cartridges, but related to the Eight Track (8-track) Audio Cartridges.

 

From the Late 1980's Decade and on, people call them "Cassettes"

 

I Own two Atari 5200 Consoles, one is the 4 Port Made in USA and the Other is the Two Port Made in Taiwan, both obtained back in the day, here, in Honduras.

 

Still those are my Favourite Game Consoles.

 

Kind regards.

[S-Video modded jr. with Harmony acts strange.]

It may be detecting a paddle somehow. To bypass detection and use the joystick, hold down the fire button while powering up.

 

That is Very Useful info!

 

Thank you for Sharing.

 

Kind Regards.

[5200 Emu for Win 7 (32 Bit)]

Dear Friends:

 

I Own Two Atari 5200, the 4 Port Version (Made in USA) and the 2 Port Version (Made in Taiwan) Both in Good Workin' Conditions.

 

Also I Own a Dozen of 5200 Carts. (See the Pics. on my Gallery)

 

But I Need to Run a Good 5200 Emulator and my 5200 Roms on my New PC that Runs on Win 7 (32 Bit)

 

Could Anyone Point me to the Right Direction?

[First experience with a 5200 system]

My First Console was the 5200 Four Port Version (Made in USA), I Own it since mid 1980's Decade and it is Still in Good Working Condition, the only problem I Had was the way the Power attach to the Console, via the TV Out...

 

due to our Low Voltage on Homes back on those Days, the internal relay kept Switching; so I Solved the Problem with a Bigger Power Source with more Amps...

 

then I Obtained the two Ports Version (Made in Taiwan) that has more "Standard" Connections...

 

Both Works Great!

I Kindly Suggest you to see Pictures of Them on my Album here.

 

Kind Regards.

[5200 Rf-power adapter ?]

Does the 5200 2port and 4 port systems use the same rf and power adapter? How hard are they to get. thanks

 

No, it is Not the Same, absolutely.

 

I Own Both Versions of the 5200, the Power Adapter is the Same, but the Four Port Version use a Different Way to Receive the Power, the Power Adaptor Plugs to the RF Switch Unit, while the Two Port Version receives the Power Directly plugged to the 5200 Unit.

 

In the Four Port Version, it has a Single Wire that Comes from the 5200 Unit to the RF Switch, that RF Switch has the TV Out and the Power Imput Slot to Plug THERE the Power adapter, so the Four Port`s RF Switch Not only Receive the Audio & Video Signal from the 5200 Unit, it also, using a complicated Relay System, Sends the Power Back to the 5200 Unit thru the Same Wire!

 

The Two Port Version is more "Standard" `cos you Plug the Power Directly to the 5200 Unit instead to the RF Swich, so it can use a Standard RF Switch.

 

Kind Regards.

[Hi! question about the Atari - Jr. Pac-Man discovered!]

Thanks for answering guys

 

 

 

... so nobody has still found the Easter Egg yet?

 

Ok, one hint:

What can you do to attract a second player to this game?

 

 

Maybe one interesting idea Could be to Let a Second Player to Drive a Ghost instead ... ...

[Hi! question about the Atari - Jr. Pac-Man discovered!]

Hi!

 

I Readed the Whole Thread, I Must Admit that at Some Point I Really Believed that the Jr. Pac-Man was a Real Treasure Lost & Found at Someone`s Home... The Magic of Dreams...

 

Well... it Happens to be a Homebrew... but a GREAT Homebrew and it helps to Keep the 7800 Alive with New Playable Titles!

 

So, Thank you for Sharing the File, I Appreciate the Great effort done to make it Possible.

 

Now I Will Wait for a 5200 Version!

 

Kind Regards.
