  1. anyone wanna let go of an Atari ST mouse for less than $20?

  2. It being bad wasn't the cause of the crash. It was the over production of the carts due to E.T. being popular, kids didn't really care for it, and Atari didn't sell enough cartridges. Did the game cause the crash? Yes. Was it because it was a terrible game? No. It's terrible because of Atari, not Howard Scott Warshaw.
  3. The only thing they will find is a big concrete pool. Atari crushed the carts with steamrollers and poured concrete over them so nobody could dig them up because of safety issues
  4. untested vectrex, no controllers, no games, untested, what should I offer?

      Plug it in and turn it on. Minestorm should come up (that game is built in to the Vectrex). Let it warm up for a few minutes if it doesn't come on right away. If it does work...without a controller....I'd estimate $50-$75.

      Controllers are hard to find...Probably between $50 - $100 to find a working controller. Still worth buying for the right price.

      Just get your controllers from John Dondzilla he makes custom controllers that work GREAT!

  5. Is there any possible way to build an Atari Emulator Box that I could load .bin files onto (Via SD Card or USB) and play with an actual joystick on a real TV?

      and I have had a few bad days at work, but it's money. I deliver pizzas, and I get good money in tips.

  8. Oops, yes it does, but how does the other flap go in?
  9. Nevermind, My box is different. That flap doesn't fold in like that on mine
  10. Dear Penthouse, my girlfriend came over today and I showed her my Atari. I can say I'm pretty lucky ;)

  12. I guess my phone uploaded only one picture, because this is the only one that shows up..

  14. a while back I bought a set of paddles that were in their original, opened box. I am organizing and cleaning things out of my room, and I have decided to put all of my boxes up on a shelf to show them off better, but I cannot figure out how to close this box. can someone show me how this box closes?
  15. Yes, I guess I forgot to post that. Thought I did. Oh well, still working out things with people to get a cartridge out soon.
  16. Finally getting my life back on track, and getting back to my retrogaming again. I couldn't feel better right now.

      I'd get my life back on track, but I'm afraid of trains.

  17. Two years ago today, I started working on my first completed bB project, Frog Pickle!

  18. I type "telnet darkforce-bbs.dyndns.org" and it says unknown host, and I find out, instead of a hyphen, it put a weird looking 'H' there and when I did "CTRL+-" I got a hyphen but it wouldn't connect still saying "connection refused"
  19. Who can burn 2600 carts cheaply?
  20. I was thinking, on carts with games made using bB, there should be some kind of sticker saying "Made with bB" or something. Thoughts?
  21. how would one make a ball go up in the air and back down again? IE: Ball hits paddle, goes up in the air, and comes back down without hitting the top of the screen
