  1. Do I just have to remove the big top shield to get that shot?
  2. Crap. Well, what is it worth for sale as a parts or future modded system??? Think anyone would buy or trade for this stuff?? I HAD been thinking of getting that longhorn mod and a power cord, and mailing it back to my dad with a copy of Galaga (his favorite old atari game) and some other carts..... Hrrrm....
  3. testing attach feature for my photos, will probably edit this if it doesnt work. The silver strip across the front looks like crap, but thats because the plastic film is still on it! Man, I feel so bad for it.
  4. sure thing! I will post it as soon as I get home.
  5. Hello all, I am kinda new to the site. (mostly lurked, but my faith in the DigitalPress forums has been eroding....) Anyways, I have a 7800 that was originally my fathers' but he mailed it along with a handful of games and two 7800 paddles to me after I got into video game collecting. It is in great shape, looks fantastic for its age. My dad either lost or just forgot to send the power/av cables with it, and it really would not have mattered since the RF thingy got ripped out or broken off the back of the console. I have looked into getting it repaired or modded (longhorn mod looks awesome!) but the price is just prohibitive for a part of my collection that I really would not play very much and is more of a sentimental piece to me. So, I am asking for a bit of advice from the community as far as what I should do with this puppy. It means alot to me, but as it is now its a pretty paper weight and not much use for gaming. I am very much an amateur with electronics and not confident at all in my skills past very basic soldering. What are my options for getting this thing playable again? What would you guys/gals do? Are there replacement RF connectors that I could solder back to the board so I could play again once I got a power adapter for it? I would like to either sell it for what I could get for it, sell the paddles or trade this stuff, or find a busted up 7800 I could use for parts. I feel bad for the poor thing. It just wants to be played!
  6. I once made the mistake of having a weekend ruined with Bayou Billy. I really like both Double Dragon and Super Dodgeball on the NES.
  7. shivers 2 for PC Hugo's house of horrors? and AMNESIA: The Dark Descent. Not classic, but I cannot think of any game that creeped me out more.
