OK. I admit that I am wayyyy-y-y-y out of touch when it comes to this topic but I do eventually find some of it interesting.
Lets be tactful and diplomatic then... Regardless of all alleged legalities, anyone who deliberately hoards or does not share classic Atari games that are known to be a one of a kind item (i.e. unreleased prototypes like 7800 Electrocop), especially when they know that there are collectors that would appreciate owning a copy, is a ninny and a poor sport.
-
If it weren't for collectors (greedy ones especially), we probably wouldn't have half of the cool shit that we do.

This is sounding wicked!! I only have an A8 though. Same thoughts for 5200 Adventure II... Wish I was a 5200 man.

Jumpman Junior
Gyruss
Wizard of Wor

Hey gang. Most know me as an Atari fanboy but I recently picked up a Gamecube and am now looking to pick up a few good titles. So far I have Metroid Prime (wicked BTW) and Sonic Gems. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here are the kinds of games I like:
- spaceship shooters or shooters where I am flying and shooting
- arcade action games
- driving games
Cheers!!

Yeah, I'm still looking for a NTSC CIB Glacier Patrol myself. I saw that auction but didn't feel like taking a risk on a potential PAL cart out of Canada. Good deal for you!Strange that you would get any PAL carts from Canada seeing as we solely utilize the NTSC standard.

Hey. I am a re-seller if I see something I know is in demand and I don't want it. Ususally I would prefer to trade it first but I will attempt to sell it if no one is interested. Here's a poll for everybody:
Who here believes that anyone who spends more than 15 minutes per day on ebay probably suffers from at least one mild mental illness?

Obviously Miyamoto is not gay but is it just me or is he one hell of a fan of psychotropics? Man, he had to have been smoking something potent when he invented some of the characters that he did.

Drats!! Need cash for this... Drats!!!

Wicked!! I hope Fade Out finally gets completed. I always wanted to see that one finished!!
-
Wicked!! Will be sending an email soon.
Question: Is the cart version glitchy or is this quite playable?
-
Please PM me for pics if you are interested. I am looking for Atari 800, 2600, 7800, and Colecovision carts. Thanks for looking!!

Wicked dude!! That is definitely hands down the coolest Atari item since the eighties. I wonder what the screen size is..
edit - I can tell from the size of the connector
-
Seems a bit high. Am I missing something or are A8 carts in high demand all of a sudden?
-
Wicked!!
-
Good call!! I know he hangs out here. What's his user ID (so I can send him a PM)?
-
Does this mean that the ROM will not be dumped and distributed?
-
What ruins the hobby is the fact that the older good stuff is getting more difficult to acquire at a reasonable price (see: supply and demand). The professional sellers are mostly collectors too as far as I can tell. I do think that it is rather strange for someone to actually make a living from selling used video games though but hey.. Whatever works for you, dudes.
-
Why are you taking a break from the scene?
-
Wicked!! I have been looking forward to this one big time!!

I found that the joypad lead to the console tends to crap out. I have had two of these do this to me in 4 years. Not sure if it's shorting out or what.
