Uppy

My apologies to all AtariAge members. I have been slow on this. Which is obvious. In the last few years I've bought a house and went through some child custody issues. Life happens. I almost had to sell off my entire collection. Luckily it did not come to that. So again I apologize but there is a lot more on my plate than gaming the last few years. Enough of my excuse and sob story. I do still plan to do this. If I do not I will pass on the artwork and everything to another member.

I found my sealed copy of Sonic Fury so yes sealed copies do exist.

I bought mine new for $30 on ebay some years ago and it looks like that is still what they are going for. Not saying they are worth that but that is the current ebay price it seems like.

Thanks Shawn. Im so glad my collection does not look like the pics you posted.

Two more additions to my collection. 2 Pioneer Laseractives. Also im finally getting everything organized so more pics to come.

I think Sonic Fury was sealed. Ill check my collection but I think I have a sealed copy.

He still made a good amount of money. He probably sold my copy(which I never got) which he charged me $50 or something like that. So basically he charged two people for the same game. I don't even remember anymore what the original cost was. I said in other posts I would let this go but just the fact this guy has the balls to sell copies on ebay that members paid for an never received is s****y. But glad you got a copy Blazing Lazers whether it was mine or another members that Rob was supposed to get to us. At least a fellow AA member got a copy. I'm glad you had a "perfectly fine transaction!" as I and fellow members didn't.

Im in PM sent. This is awesome.

Thanks for posting this interview.

So I posted some pics of the overlay I had made. Minus the rounded corners this is the exact measurements of the original large odyssey overlay. This material is back lit film. It is a little thicker and a little spendy. I think if I was to have 20 to 25 made my cost would be around $8 dollars a piece plus I would have to pay for shipping from the company. But PsychedelicShaman offered to help out also with an overlay. I am getting him images that stupus offered to help out with and the original image that I got from njb12287. The cost will be much lower if this works out. But I will post both overlays and would like everyones feedback. Or we could do both. Again I am just trying to keep the cost low for everyone. Sorry the pic I had for the instructions didnt work out so I will get those posted soon.

Sorry everyone as I been slow about posting pictures. Ill get an image of the instructions and overlay up soon. Also PsychedelicShaman offered to help out with the overlays so hopefully we can find the best option. The only thing that is really left is to make the game piece.

Thanks for the offer on the overlay help. I think I sent you a photo of the overlay I had made but im going to check out a few other companies. So that vector image might help me out.

I am finally doing this. I had to take a break from gaming for a while because of personal issues but im back and this game is going to be made. So you will be #1 one on the list unless njb actually wants a copy.

njb12287 and I had been throwing this idea around for some time because Soccer for the Magnavox Odyssey was never released in the U.S. Just to let members know I am taking on this project but I could have not done it without njb but he is no longer involved with this release. But I have been working with Vince(thanks for your patience on this project) at http://www.uncletusk.com/. I want to just do an interest check. This is not a commitment etc. The only reason I am doing this is so I can let members know how much the game will cost. Im dealing with other companies for the overlay and the more you buy the cheaper the cost. Im a hoping to make at least 20 to 25 copies(25 will be the most) but I just want to make sure the interest is there. Here is a low quality picture of the box design. The design might change a bit. I will get a pic of the overlay and instructions up soon. I am going to try to keep the cost below $50. Here are some pics of the overlay I had made up: 1.stupus 2.Blazing Lazers 3.jeffgamer 4.furor 5.Scooter83 6.ianoid 7.atarinut76 8.ccc--- 9.PsychedelicShaman 10.Dastari Creel 11.ianoid 12.toymailman

Put me down for the Special Limited Edition.

Sorry I didn't mean to change the subject of the post. In a couple of days I will do an interest check but not here. The Rev Rob homebrew I was referring to was Mentis Cohorts.

So this will be an interest check. I will try to keep every thing under $50. Pics will come.

I will not go on a rant about Rev Rob as I told the atariage community im done. Most of us never got the game or got half of the game etc. So I really don't know if it is really a true homebrew or not. This is the first time I am posting this. njb and I had been working on releasing Soccer for the Magnavox odyssey. njb has nothing to do with the project anymore but was a huge help and I could have not done it with out him. It is really not a homebrew but soccer was never released for the US odyssey and never had a box etc. I have a box design and have had an overlay made.

Luckily I have a boxed copy of Demo cart 1 as FND really helped me out with my collection. I think that demo cart 2 is overpriced also or I would have bought it. As far as I know one member here owns two demo cart 2's. Unless he sold or traded a copy. One of those copies I think was available on an auction site some time ago(maybe an ebay site overseas?) but that member here ended up with that copy. Also there is rumors of a person overseas that owns a demo cart 2 also. That I cannot confirm.

They would have to have a different pinout I would assume. The fairchild ones I have do not have a labels on them so I'm assuming the did not come with them unless they wore off. Ive only seen pics of the atari ones so im not 100% sure of all of the differences.

I forgot to mention if you are looking for another odd variant(if you don't already have this in your collection) for the Fairchild Channel F look for the controllers with the red fire button. I have a set for my System II. But you also see them from time to time hardwired into the original Fairchild Channel F also. These are cool to have and great to play the system with.

With talking with other collectors I have heard to get the Zircon "White Box" set is very hard/if not almost impossible to complete that is why I have never tried. The lower numbers seem hard to get. But you obviously know this. Me personally Im just going to be happy owning the entire US(white or illustrated boxes) set minus demo cart 2. But I guess I could pick it up on ebay for $999.99. But good luck on your Fairchild collection.

Wish I could help you with an answer. You could try to contact atariage member FND. He would be the guy to talk to for anyting Fairchild Channel F.

Thanks for great input on the shelving. That will be something to look into compared to my shelving. Im still waiting to see how the spring thaw works here in MN to see if I can move my collection in the basement so then they will have a proper display(with nice shelving etc)if I still have my collection. On a sad note I might have to unload most of my collection. My kids mom wants to move my son out of town and im looking at $10,000 to $15000 dollars in lawyers fees to stop it. No fun in gaming if I cant play games with my 6 year old on a regular basis. Sorry about the personal drama but be on the lookout in the marketplace in a month or two as most of this will have to be sold. Hopefully this does not happen.

That is a boxed and working Videobrain. I basically have every cart(most CIB) for the computer also except for the demonstration cartridge. But they are unfortunately boxed up at the moment.
