Beautiful.

That's a good idea too. I have a second turbo module. I might do something similar with that one too. Maybe I'll put a toggle start switch on that one.

Thanks. And those are sweet. I like the pass through tap. That could help me keep things a little better organized.

It could happen. But who needs the box? I use that thing all the time! KILLER BEES! and Smithereens! are the best. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oG1TlryN88

Atari 5200 Lot: $200 Shipped. My Flickr set shows the beauty and all of the goodies below. There are also two additional controllers that I'll be throwing in that are non-functional. I'll also be putting up a smaller game lot of duplicates as well. My 5200 Flickr set. 5200 with all original hookups and power supply. (Power Supply not pictured I had it out of the box for some reason.) Many CIB games with very low miles--The popeye scratch off card is still intact! Two rebuilt 5200 Controllers (Best) and three (one disassembled) for parts or rebuilding. Partially working trackball (not pictured) included. I recently fired it up for the first time in a year, tested everything and it works perfectly. --- U.S. Only. Canada or elsewhere, I'll need to calculate shipping and work with you on the difference.

I also highly recommend the Super Pac-Man cartridge. Got it on the 5200, but I'm just not a big Super Pac fan. It is so fun! Though I don't really get why there is a speed button. He should just speed up when you get the super pellet. I always amaze my friends when I play it because I consistently score in the 120K range... but anyone that plays it regularly can score in that range. The trick is that if you get a Super Power pellet you can stay "super" by gobbling up the regular power pellets... If you do it in the right order you can clear the board as Super Pac.

JEALOUS!

Not to degrade my own thread any lower than it already is, but ... Old folks need lovin', too. Albeit, a bit more carefully.

My mom is 61. That's just mean, man. That's just mean.

Know where one can pick up "Phoenix?"

*nod*

Yep. I'munna do what Yurkie says. Just as soon as I get off my ___ and do it. Ooh! I love this game! The missing word is... "rocking chair"? I'll play too! The missing word is... "Surfboard?"

I also highly recommend the Super Pac-Man cartridge.

I wish I had the woodworking tools, I would love to make a wall hanging cartridge holder with a glass door. Me too. That'd be cool.

They haven't arrived yet. They're coming from China. I haven't figured out a good spot for it yet either. There isn't much space left on the dash... it may have to sit under the steering wheel out of sight. Or I may mount it on the side. Unfortunately with the pedal cavity I'm limited to where the switch can go. I don't want to mount it on the left as a matter of principle... but we'll see...

Right now my carts are in shoe-boxes and storage bins. Does anyone have a suggestion of a way to neatly display your ColecoVision cartridges? Wall storage is preferred but I'm open to other options.

Yep. Do what Yurkie says.

What is wrong with your controller? If it's the thin-film circuitry probably not. This one has a pretty bad burn spot in the middle where it appears to have shorted out. And I've not tried cleaning it with anything to see if it can be revived. Otherwise everything is there. My controller is missing the rubber 3 top buttons + the CV joint boot for the joystick. That, and it dun work at all. Yep, it's a 5200 controller. Well if you want the disassembled controller I'll ship it to you for $10.

I've also gone so far as to just put an entirely different switch on:

Excellent work!

ColecoVision Games! Everything as described and well packed! I made two deals with him within a week or so and they both went very smooth. Thanks a lot!

Smurf Controller!

I have two of them. ADAM hog. I'm actually looking to get rid of some of my ADAM stuff... I want one but I kinda wanted the Expansion Module #3 version. The ADAM is such a massive thing... it's hard to have 2 I'll bet. You don't need a 5200 do ya?
