Excellent , I Enjoy reading all these accounts of the older games / programmers and such . I always wondered if there was any truth the rumor of a large amount of the memory being used on the opening sequence picture and music ? Anyway , enjoyed it !

Hello, Thanks for the input. I have the Basic lists of what I have as far as Carts by sytem , Systems , Boxed games etc. in Game Collector . I do need photos of things The lists are basic with carts mostly listing color , pic or text ...... I could see the detailed description for the higher rarity ones , but 350 loose 2600 carts alone would be a whole new career for this Old Retired Guy ha ha Can I interest you in 5 or 6 Space Invaders..... Combats ??? Thanks again, Tom

Thanks for the replies. I don't know if it is worth the time or money to repair. It has no audio as well with the Coleco carts. I guess I will leave it on the shelf for now as I am much more a collector than a player of these classic systems. (although I always prefer a working system). It was interesting to find out the only thing the unit is used for with the 2600 adapter is for the RF pass through. Thanks again, Tom

Hello, I was recently going thru my collections (considering a possible sale) and came across a problem I had forgotten about. The Colecovision System I have plays the Atari 2600 games with the adapter fine but for regular Coleco games only gets a blank screen ??? I know very little about these andwas curious if this is a common problem and if it is a minor problem or a Major Disaster !! Thanks, Tom

Thanks again to everyone who sent a PM and to all who stopped to look and offer comments and advice. For a variety of reasons , it looks like it's not going to be in the cards to get rid of the collection at this time. Sorry if anyone feels I wasted there time , that was not my intention. Thanks, The OLD GUY

I sent you a PM

Thanks to those who sent replies in PMs .I did not post any lists here because It would have ended up in PMs anyway. Thanks to anyone who even just took the time to take a quick look. For now the collection sits , as it always has. If anyone does want any other info , feel free to send a PM. Thanks and see you all in the forums

actually it's a click to export to text then attach the files....copy and paste gets other crap from program

I have received a couple of replies in private messages and will answer there also. I have lists by groups .... loose 2600 carts , supercharger tapes , double enders , 5200 carts , 7800 carts , etc in Game Collector that I can export/send as plain text files........ this may be too much work for an Old Retired Guy

I realize now the " Real Collector " statement may be taken the wrong way by some , all I meant is that is the reason I figured I would feel it out here on Atari Age where the collectors are and not just list it on an auction site or classified . Hope this makes it a little clearer. Like I said just wanted to feel it out. I think this may turn out to be too complicated to do. We shall see !

It's been quite a while since I ( yes it's the OLD GUY and no I am not DEAD ha ha ) have been on and quite a while since I have been able to do anything with my collection. This brings me to my point. Due to several factors , which I will not bore you with , I am considering selling pretty much my whole Vintage Collection and would just keep a Basic sytem and some all time common favorites. It is 95% Atari 2600 . I was trying to come up with ideas and would appreciate any suggestions. I have a few (old) pictures of it on here and can take a more as needed , and can print a list ( I use an older version of Game Collector to keep track ). If I do sell it , I am looking to keep it simple , and would prefer it goes to REAL Atari 2600 Collectors if possible. I figured I would feel it out around here first. I did send this just to Abert first , but figured I would post it here also. Thanks for any help or suggestions, Tom C. (shquata)

That's a great idea, Toymailman. I would definitely buy a Compumate Gets a New Brain! Sure , put me down as a YES also. Anything 2600 is a good thing ! Would be fun to see this thing (keyboard) DO SOMETHING !!
