Atari Dog's Latest Purchases

[Atari Dog's Latest Purchases]

Hopefully, I will have fun with these games.

Trust me: not with Karate.

 

On the other hand: the characters look hilariously silly.

 

Tutankham is a great game, though.

 

Once you get used to the controls, it can get very tense on the later levels.

 

 

Yes Tutankham is a great game, i can remember me and my bro playing as a child 2 players, i used to get us killed

[Heavy 2600 question]

I just went to an indoor flea market, and there were 2 vendors with video games, BOTH had a heavy sixer. One hooked up running space invaders for $25 with 3 games I flipped it over and it was Hong Kong, not Taiwan! The other was a Sunnyvale for $15, I offered $10 and got it, whoo hoo. I have no idea if it works or not, it is in nice shape except for one thing, it has the "Please steal my identity" feature of the 1980s. It has someones social security number engraved on the top! Not real obvious, and I could probably remove it and make it better.

Nice find, you got a great deal. And i guess that answered that question about if their are any heavy's other than sunnyvale

[Heavy 2600 question]

Far as I know, all heavy 6ers were made in Sunnyvale, CA. There may be a piece of paper taped to the motherboard with an assembly date. Also may be a sticker with a date code on the RF modulator on the switchboard.

 

okay i will check that out when it comes, i thought some were made else where, i could be totally wrong...thanks for the reply...

[Heavy 2600 question]

I just purchased a heavy sixer off ebay. Great condition. I emailed the guy and asked where it was manufactored to check the label, he said there was none on the bottom. Must of been taken off, is there another way to see where it was manufactroed or serial number? thanks

[Looking For heavy sixer, Sunnyvale]

Hello, what is the condition? What would you say is a fair amount?

[Looking For heavy sixer, Sunnyvale]

You looking for Atari or Sears? I don't have an extra, but I'm just curious.

Atari.. Thanks. I look on ebay all the time, and i had to work the other day and let one pass at a reasonable price, i was upset..lol

[Looking For heavy sixer, Sunnyvale]

As the title states, im looking for a heavy sixer, sunnyvale.. Been checking out ebay, and everytime a good deal ends, im working and miss it...lol

[Serial numbers]

I see some serial numbers ending in a different letter, (IE> e, f, g,) just wondering if there was a difference, i assume the high letter were last made? Reason i ask is, i have a guy trying to sell a 6er with ending in G...Not sure the difference.. Thanks..and sorry if it was posted, im at work and have to use my ipod. So the search function is not working..thanks again

[BOWLING, two player perfect game?]

Just wanted to know your guys best scores in this game.

I will post if i can find them. I just remember thinking, my mom is the coolest.. lol..just wanted to share that part..lol

[Whats the rarest 2600 game that you own?]

I need to go through all my games again, its been years, and never really looks for rarity as im just getting back into it. i have many, but off the top of my head, i know i have some 4's.. TAZ is one just to name one...

[Is this real]

[Collection Inventory]

It's all up here

 

*points to head*

 

I used to do that too, and thought i had it up there.. But when people come and go in and out the place, i got back to my collection and see, hmm..some things are missing.

[Retrocade IV - Central PA 2.20.10]

Provided I have enough TVs, I'll be adding an Intellivision and Atari 800 to the mix, although with limited library.

 

Also, I'm creating a DVD to show on the upstairs lounge area. It will have retro advertisements from the classic era along with some arcade related video like "Into the Valley of the Space Invaders."

 

After that, a showing of King of Kong...

 

Sounds awesome, i will be away that weekend though.. York PA here

[Collection Inventory]

As im sure most of us keep an inventory or our Gaming collection, How do you guys do it. IE..Do you write your games down on paper of what you have, Do you use MS Word, Exel? I was kind of looking for a program that i could get to keep it organized with a drop box to pick the console, and then manually add my games, and maybe pictures of the items.. Just would like to see what you guys use, if anything and maybe some ideas.. Thanks

[2600 system price check please]

Thanks again for the responses, the games are pretty much common games. Kaboom, frogger, PAC man, missle command, frogs and flies.. Etc...

[2600 system price check please]

Thanks I'm happy with the condition but wasn't sure if I was happy with the price because thought it was sunnyvalle.

[2600 system price check please]

Hello everyone,First post,Love the site... i just recently started my collection back up, i have a good bit of stuff but over the years my things started dissapearing, so the only system of the 2600 genre i still had was the JR. anyway...I just bought a 6 switch off of craigslist, I was under the impression it was a sunnyvalle. But when i got it home it was made for atari in taiwan. Its GREAT condition and came with 18 games and 3 controller and 4 paddles, oh and with the atari case station. I paid 60.. But my question is how much is the system alone worth? Being thats its not the Sunnyvalle console. Is the value a lot less? Any input is appreciated. Im thinking of reselling for a sunnyvalle.

Thanks again
