I took it apart 1 more time now it is better. The problem is the rollers are super rusty. One is smooth left and right. Up and down is stuck now. Not as free. Do anybody sell new roller. Or maybe I'll try some clr tomorrow.

Took some pictures for those to see incase anyone else is wondering how it looks inside. I cleaned the ball with soap and water. The rollers looked kiinda rusty so not cleanable. I think I made it worse. Doesn't go let now only don, up and right. Any here are some photos.

There is no right place to put this so I'm just going to ask. What happened to the forums? I liked the old look better.

I know but if there are any moving parts inside that can fall out or are not secured. I won't know how to put everything back together. But I'll give it a try.

But I don't want to break it. I can always y it and use it for at least the start pause and reset. Maybe does anyone have pictures of a trackball opened? Or maybe I can try some compressed air?

I have a trackball but not mint and looks a little dusty. Couldn't get one game (I forget which one) to move right only left freely. No more 5200 trackballs left on ebay though so no way to test. Is trackball even worth much anyway?

Not a bad deal 30 minutesd left though. eBay Auction -- Item Number: 270716969946 Or it is a lot but 50 games are probably worth it. eBay Auction -- Item Number: 110661238878

Maybe after all these years you mod guys can make a super 2600 with 4gb ram 1tb hd to hold all the games and supped up graphics. But even back would of probably costed too much to add more than 128k of ram amd better graphics.

Yes sometimes. When were we kids I spilled water all over my 5200 and ten years after pulling out of storage it still worked. So sometimes you get lucky.

Will these also work on 2600? If so I use nes pads on 2600 also as mentioned in the 2600 section. Should work on 7800 also. And it is wireless, plus no rewiring.

if you need new buttons. eBay Auction -- Item Number: 390282604060

Yes I noticed this also. I have a qbert that refuses to play. There is no door on third party games.

If the freedom connection had adapters for 2600 also it would be great. But it is only nes compatible sorry. But the ir receiver for the freedom stick works on both 2600 and nes. Now if they were picky and each only worked with its own receiver too bad. But the 2 are interchangeable. I tried the freedom connect on my old ps 1 wireless sticks and nothing happened. But the freedoom stick receiver works with the freedom connection also (surprise surprise). So the 2600 with the freedom stick ir receiver works with not only with the freedom stick but the freedom connection also surprise. And maybe more like 4 score but never tried. Wasd really surprised the connection and stick were not 2 seperate things and both worked with the same receiver and 2600 adapters. But I have only tried 2 games jungle hunt and space invaders. Don't know if anything else works just those 2 I tried for now.

First off mine is sears tele (light 6er I believe). Now for the story. Have to buy 2 things. Look on ebay also. I just linked to amazon because ebay auctions disappear after awhile. Both made by camerica company. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003D7D4VO?ie=UTF8&tag=atariage&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003D7D4VO http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00457CXCM?ie=UTF8&tag=atariage&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00457CXCM I got the stuff very cheap. Took a photo off my bead. Hope it is clear. The freedom stick works with both and has adapters for nes and atari 2600. Only works on 2600 and have not tried other 9 pin systems. But freedoom stick is to bulky to play with. It is wireless but still big and clunky. So go the freedom connection they had back then to allow a nes joystick to be wireless. The sensor box plugs into nes and then the freedom connection has a port to plug in an nes controller. And the signal goes wireless and makes you nes controller wireless. Pretty neat. But the freedom connection (at least the one I ebayed) has a sensor with builtin wires to hookup to the nes. No removable cable like the freedom stick. But sinse the stick came with 2600 adapters I decided to buy a freedom connection on ebay and see if it would work. Like wireless devices from other systems or companies might not work but sinse both were made by camerica I decided to try. And works great. So use the same box and cable from the stick. Plug the grey cable (player 1) into left 9 pin joystick port on back of atari and the black cable (player2) into the right side port. Then put 4 Tripple A batteries into the freedom connect. Turn the switch on the side to player 1 and set auto fire to manual. Make sure the freedoom connect is pointing directly at sensor and nothing iin the way. Won't work if you leave it on the floor. Has to be good site between both. And when I turn on jungle hunt I press the b button on the dogboone and he starts swinging vines. Or space invaders hit reset. Game starts with 3 lives and then left and right with the d pad and b to shoot. Pretty simple. Works surprisingly well.

It was just my hidef tv looks like. If I wiggle power it does get weird but no black and white on my smaller tvs. Weird. The antenna A or B (can't remember) a few weeks ago went completely black and white (even with my vcr) and then turned color for no reason. My 2 in 1 football and nhl95 game with rca (white and yellow) also was black and white and not on my smaller tvs. Weird. But upstairs work ok full color even despite a little fuzzy. And cable att uverse tv look full color. Never black and white. And snes or nes and all the used crap I got off ebay is also color and never black and white. Totally. Weird. But anyhow it is so cool got my sears atari to work with an nes dog bone controller and it is wireless. Got 2 games jungle hunt silver label variation. And Space invaders sears 112.Both work great even despite a little on the fuzzy side.

Yes no joke. It is a sears tele 6 switch (light aparantly). But yes got it to work with a nes dogbone controller. I will mention how if anyone is interested. However all of a sudden it turned black and white. And if wiggle the power switch it goes back to color sometimes. But at least it works. Pretty cool.

That was it thanks.

Cool except that the sears versions have no mnaual listed so I have no idea how to start the game.

Just found a full page with photos of 2600 opened. Now I don't have to take one apart. Cool to see how it looks on the inside. It looks like a 6 switched was taken apart. Heavy I think. http://www.techrepublic.com/photos/cracking-open-the-atari-2600-video-game-console/197754?seq=19&tag=thumbnail-view-selector;get-photo-roto

Finally got space invaders to work, but don't remember what button I pressed. It is a 112 tele games version. Does anybody have a link to a manual. Not hard copy just a online version if anybody knows where to get one. I can't get it to start and can't remember how it did before. Thanks.

And what about ac adapter. My universal is only 300mah. That might explain the grainy picture. Does sears tele work with regular 2600 adapter or has a special ac?

Never mind I ran auto scan on my tv and found the pictue. Muche better. Still a little fuzy even if directly plugged into backof tv but not bad so thanks. Now I just have to get some controllers and an official ac adapter and I'm alll set. I'll ask a friend if he still has his and see if I can have them. The power and controllers were all the same for 4 and 6 switch right? And does it matter I have sears tele. Or same 2600 regular adapter and controllers would work?

I got a 6 switch sears tele from ebay. Hooked up everything and no picture. On chanle 3 whenI power looks like something wavy line and messed up screen but still snow. Looks like it is powering on but no picture. Using universal ac adapter but made sure 9v and positive tip. But no channel selector switch. What chanel then is my sears telel 6 switch supposed too be on to get signal.

What tweak is that? I was wondering the same thing. Me too.
