7800 Joypad VS NES Pad Conversions: Which do you prefer?
ATARI7800fan replied to Dr Manhattan's topic in Atari 7800
7800 Joypad. -
I am currently thinking of selling my Neo Geo AES and was wondering what people would be willing to pay for it. It is a Japanese model, Pow-3. Is not in box, comes with King of Fighters 96 American version and Fatal Fury Special also American with the bid dog logo on the side. Comes with 2 of the original large controllers on one the d button seems to be going out, and a memory card. The only thing is the Power Supply is touchy, sometimes is works some days it does not want to work. So if I were to sell it the buyer would need to buy a new power supply. There is a seller on eBay from the US that sells replacement power supplies for it. Or at the Neo Store located in Tennessee. Here is the listing http://www.neostore....e-AES-p/595.htm cost about 25 from there plus shipping. It uses a 9volt supply or Pow-3 as it says on the bottom of the system. Both games have there cases, the top of the King of Fighters 96 is a little chipped and cracked along the edge but I just used some gorilla glue to fill the crack, it is the latter design that snaps shut and has the lock on the edge American version, The Fatal Fury Special one looks almost brand-new and includes the manual. Early American version with the dog on the top spine edge. The second controller the fourth button sometimes does not seem to want to work on King of Fighters. So worst case would be that the second controller only has 3 buttons(I use heavy kick a lot and might have worn it out) Memory card is in good shape and the console does have a few light scratches on the top if you look at it the right way. If you are interested make me a offer and let me know and I will try to get some pictures posted here soon. I am pretty sure it is the power supply seeing as when ever it stops working is when the AC adopter gets warm to hot. Not the best in electronic repairs. All offer will be considered though currently someone is extremely interested just to let people know they might not be the only ones interested. I am currently at college and it is at my parents house so it would not be until next weekend before I can get pictures. EDIT: Here are the pictures, if this link does not work I also put one in my latest comment. http://www.atariage.com/forums/gallery/album/25467/642-atari7800fans-collectionstuff-for-sale-2/

For the First answer there is a seller on ebay from the US that sells replacement power supplies for it. Or at the Neo Store located in Tennese. Here is the listing http://www.neostore.com/Power-Supply-for-Japanese-AES-p/595.htm cost about 25 from there plus shipping. It uses a 9volt supply or Pow-3 as it says on the bottom of the system. Both games have there cases, the top of the King of Fighters 96 is a little chipped and cracked along the edge but I just used some gorilla glue to fill the crack, it is the latter design that snaps shut and has the lock on the edge American version, The Fatal Fury Special one looks almost brand-new and includes the manual. Early American version with the dog on the top spine edge. The second controller the fourth button sometimes does not seem to want to work on King of Fighters. So worst case would be that the second controller only has 3 buttons(I use heavy kick alot and might have worn it out) Memory card is in good shape and the console does have a few light scratches on the top if you look at it the right way. If you are interested make me a offer and let me know and I will try to get some pictures posted here soon. Should I also list it in the Marketplace, not to sure just trying to get a feel for how much I could get out of it. I am pretty sure it is the power supply seeing as when ever it stops working is when the AC adopter gets warm to hot. Not the best in electronic repairs. Planning(if I sell it) to use the money on a Amiga. I am hoping to start around 300 then do down. Seeing as I have about 500 invested at least in it, payed 90 alone for King of Fighters 96. on second thought I will look at any offers, better someone enjoy it instead of sitting in storage. -

how about 150 plus shipping to Canada, I live in Indiana. Would that be with the two games or without. Just getting some Ideas so I can see if it is worth putting up for sale in the market place. Need the Money for a Amiga 1000 -

Good price for a Amiga 1000/ opinion of it
ATARI7800fan replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Commodore Amiga
I defer to Frank's post about PAL game compatibility. PAL games often work on US/Can. Amigas with no effort at all, but can have graphic elements cutoff. My advice: Get Amiga Forever Value edition (US$10) and a Legacy Engineering USB joystick ($26 shipped) and surf over to Dream 17 and pickup legal downloadable copies of Team 17 games like Project-X. Play around, see if you like the Amiga experience and if you do, get a real Amiga. You might also consider getting an Amiga 500 and monitor if you can find one cheaply locally or on eBay. If you aren't picky and get a badly yellowed one, you might find one cheap. This is another way of getting your feet wet and would give you a springboard you could use to make an informed decision as to whether an A1000 will work for you (an unexpanded A500 behaves nearly identically to an A1000.) The good news here is you could keep many accessories, software, etc. you get with (or obtain for) the A500 for use on a future A1000, and the 500 can become a good troubleshooting/test platform for the A1000. I have just one Amiga 1000 (the one from earlier in this thread) but I have several Amiga 500s I keep around. They do the following jobs for me: - Ready spare parts (CIA chips, 68000, etc.) - Allow me to do A/B testing on chips and add ons. For example, to save wear and tear on the sockets of my A1000, if I buy an expansion that slaps on the side, or a chip upgrade (processor socket upgrade, Denise upgrade, etc.) I can pop it into one of the 500 systems first to test and configure it. - Testing disks I get from eBay (aside from saving drive wear and tear, an A500 is easy to tuck away and pull out/setup at a moment's notice.) - Showing off disks/games at retro shows when I feel like the A1000 is too delicate to truck around. could you list a link for Frank's pal game compatibility. Thanks. -
I have already reported to the cops and I am going to get some law advice encase I have to take them to civil Court. I am not the type of person to to go down without a fight. No matter what it costs me to take them to court so well. I just want to teach them a lesson to to let them know some people do not go down easily.

I let some twenty first century scholars, there kids that spend the weekend at the student housing who are planning on going to my college. Borrow a Atari Lynx 2, large atari lynx case with the top that holds games. Plus my 8+ games that included Zaku, Joust, Shadow of the beast, Zalor mercenary,Ninja Gaiden, Scrapyard dog,Stun Runner,California games, and Steel Talons among others. Said they would return it the next morning and never did, plus left before I could go to there dorm. Have spent the last two weeks talking to 21 century scholars just to find out they can't do anything because both kids deny everything. so I had to know go to the campus police who are part of the state cops and file a theft report, just hope they still have the video footage from then, all hallways have video surveillance and it is 2 versus me. I will not let it effect the positive outlook I have of people though.

Sonic Generations, what can it be
ATARI7800fan replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Modern Console Discussion
Yes, like unleashed. Why did they stick that stupid were-hog in there. I mean sonic 06 was just so buggy and not a big fan of shadow. Did not mind Sonic heroes. -

ATARI7800fan replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Modern Console Discussion
And then people wonder why they keep on trying new things to make sonic sell, on when they final get it right people do not buy it so they are less likely to make the next game like it even though it is good, plus it is like 30 buck now that is half of what a 360 game costs. -
Good price for a Amiga 1000/ opinion of it
ATARI7800fan replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Commodore Amiga
Just wondering would the Lotus games, wing of Death, Project-X and Pinball Dreams work on a Amiga 1000 and were they released in the USA,might just get Amiga forever first and try out some of the games before I decide if I will put the money into getting the real thing, defiantly still like the 1000. -

Good price for a Amiga 1000/ opinion of it
ATARI7800fan replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Commodore Amiga
With compatibility what are your guys opinion of later models like the 2000 and 3000. Are they worth what people are asking for them on ebay. Also is it easier to find games for a Atari ST in the USA then a Amiga. -

ATARI7800fan replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Commodore Amiga
Don't infect the thread with that crap, those are not Amiga's they are over priced PC's being pawned off as Amiga's. But they are good alternatives if a person wants to replace there old PC and happen to like the look of the them, That is what I am thinking of doing, towers just take up to much room, maybe, depending of what they cost and what they come with. -

How much would you want for the Amiga 1000. Is it NTSC or PAL. What games do you have, Were in Ohio do you live, I am in Indiana. How much for a monitor, what would you be interested in trading. Just wondering. -

ATARI7800fan replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Commodore Amiga
I don't see Commodore USA bringing out any desirable Amiga related kit anytime soon. The story on them is it's one guy who imports furniture and saw an opportunity to import zero footprint PCs. He boldly slapped VIC or Commodore logos on ‘em and sold them, then later negotiated the rights to do this from the actual Commodore rights holder. Right now if I understand correctly, he may or may not have the license to sell a PC clone as an “Amiga” and may even someday come up with a cool case designed to invoke Amiga nostalgia. I doubt this will pan out, but I’m not the target audience at any rate. Even if those machines did come out, they would be PCs running the Amiga Forever emulator. With that in mind, if you want good emulation, you can buy Amiga Forever right now and get a very good Amiga emulation experience. To me, it just isn’t the same. As for your original question: Amiga games can be found all over. They are rare but if you wait you can eventually find nearly everything cheap. There are of course legitimate rare games that are hard to come by. I’d guess that roughly 75% of the games you see from US/Canadian sellers on eBay are American. Importing games did not take off for Amiga until the early 1990s, as more systems could boot into PAL mode. Ironically, I may be partly responsible for this. I was the Amiga/Atari ST buyer for Softwaire Centre (sic), Upgrade and TechStar in the late 1980s. I have a fierce love of games and wanted to try everything, and that meant making Ingram/MicroD import a few dozen of each UK release, no matter how lame. They were hard to convince at first, but by the time I’d left (and even after those 3 retail chains were dead and gone) Ingram was importing in a big way and their competitors were following suit. To run PAL software on a US Amiga, you need two things: An Amiga that boots into PAL mode. A display that will let you get away with the PAL scan rates. The good news here is that many stock Amiga monitors can handle PAL with some adjustments of the knobs on the back. Modern TVs are very hit and miss. Thanks, I already know the Amiga's commodore USA say will be coming soon are just PC's but I do like the case design of them, just find PC towers overly big and take up to much room. Plus my PC is starting to show its age. So far the website says they are planning on having a 1000,2000,3000. Which the cases are the same size difference as the originals, as the 1000 is the thinnest, the 2000 the thickest and the 3000 inbetween, which I did find it odd at first the the 3000 which was built after the 2000 was smaller. Would rather get those to replace my pc then the new commodore 64 just because they should be more powerful seeing as they are called Amiga's. Also how often do the Amiga 1000's show up on the Marketplace here. -
Sonic Generations, what can it be
ATARI7800fan replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Modern Console Discussion
That is true, but Ocarina was not without character. The 3D Zelda games have always been at least good. There's a couple of great ones in my opinion. But alas, my point was that Link did not live and die in 2D, and you definitely can't compare the 3D Zelda games to the 3D Sonic ones... As for Sonic (in 3d), I liked Adventure 1 and 2. Other than that you are right; mediocre at best. Ever tried sonic colors, best game since Adventure 1 and 2 according to IGN, plus it was designed by the creator of the adventure series. -
Tempest clone - typhoon 2001 - any new developments?
ATARI7800fan replied to Keatah's topic in Modern Console Discussion
Just Tried it and must so I am impressed, too bad they do not have more games like this on Xbox live, at least the Wii gets some different downloadable games once in a while. Were can I get a Microsoft Trackball, never knew they sold them. -
Agree. I do not see a reason for new hardware, and its not because I just bought a Wii and am planning on buying my first DS this winter.
