  1. Whoa, didn't read the "R" for a second there, was going to mention MEN-a-vision.....
  2. Looks like it needs pixel perfection movement on a couple screens, which makes a game frustratingly hard. I got annoyed just watching the videos seeing people get to the same screen, only to fail because they were exactly 1 pixel too far over.
  3. Ooh, yeah, if you could sign mine too that would be cool! No worries on the box, I just figured if it was an option, I'd like one. I'm not picky either way.
  4. Thrift store paydirt! 2 full shopping bags of SPI strategy board games, all I didn't have, for $50 total. SWEET!

  5. I was incorrect earlier, THE SUN IS A MIASMA OF INCANDESCENT PLASMA

      As fast as it can go (the speed of light, you know) twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is...oops, wait...wrong song!

  7. LOL at that video -- "Nobody has this!" Yeah, because the 8 listings for that exact item, 2 of which are boxed, clearly supports that guy's statement. Friggin' YouTubers!
  8. I just picked up some upgrades for my 5200 collection locally on Craigslist, and I'm putting the system and my loose carts here for what I paid for it. The system is a 4-port and works, but the switchbox is very finicky (as is typical of most 4-port switchboxes). The joysticks? Yeah, they're 5200 joysticks, and as such are VERY touch-and-go. They work when they want to, just comes with the territory. Anyway, for sale is the system itself which is in good 'playing' shape with no cracks or significant smudges. The faceplate has a couple minor scratches but they're cosmetic. The console comes with the following loose games: Berzerk Galaxian Frogger Pac-Man Countermeasure Space Dungeon Defender Star RAiders Pole Position Missile Command Qix Ms. Pac-Man Space Invaders Basically I'm just passing on the pretty fair deal I got on a 5200 bundle to AtariAge. Pics should be forthcoming in a day or so, we've got guests in house currently and I don't want to be more disruptive than I already have been testing everything (since our guest room is also my Atari office), so I should put those up tomorrow. Everything has been tested and is working, well, as much as you can say a 5200 is working. It's a great starter set for anyone's collection, and honestly I think $80 for the lot is a good fair market price. PM me if you're interested.
  9. Accidentally deleted GroovyBee's status. Fat fingers on my tablet and slipped. Sorry! Please check out his INTV game Rocketeer!

  10. I love these threads, they're almost as polarized and inflammatory as politics threads. Seriously though, and I'm guilty of it, parenting seems one of the most polarized topics out there.
  11. I'm a perfect parent because I know I'd be bad at it, so I don't have any kids!
  12. Exactly. Now you can be a bad parent, ignore your kids, and be completely scott-free! No consequences!
  13. There's tons of pawn shops here in town, but I never check them at all because they're so saturating it's daunting. I could spend a whole day just on two or three blocks, but I don't think I'd find anything. Is it worth it to expand to pawn shops?
  14. It was a social experiment all along!

      Okay.....I'm confused. Why the hell did CC make a status update about a thread locked for almost 2 years?

  15. Did you know they made a whole series of Matchbox cars based around Atari's RoadBlasters game?

      You saw these in Kroger the other day? You must have time travelled back to the 80s somehow then.

      There was also a more recent set of Atari-licensed cars, which I've also seen in K-Mart, so that may be what iswitt is referring to.

      I was hoping that there was some hidden 80s crate of these found in a Kroger somewhere! Damn!

      Why didn't anyone tell me? I would have voted a lot differently today had I known.

      Since some people think that Cebus is being serious, he's poking fun at a member here who always posts 'news updates' about a week late. On purpose or not, I'm not sure....
