  1. This is like asking someone to rank their kids by how much they love them.

    We do that all the time around here. It keeps the kids competitive.

     

    1) Atari VCS - 6 switch - my first video game system and still my favorite.

    2) Atari XEGS/400/130XE - I learned how to program on this thing. Launched my career

    3) Atari 5200 - Nice to have when I don't want to mess with basic commands and disk drives

    4) Atari Lynx - some really unique games and was never matched until the GBA came out.

    5) Atari 7800 - plays 2600 games but the 7800 games are only slightly better than the 5200.

    6) Atari ST - Great games and cooler than the Mac. Just wish I had room for a full setup.

    7) Atari Jaguar - The games seem unfinished with textured polygons. T2K and AvP are the only reasons to play. More ST conversions needed

  4. Hard to tell, as it depends a lot on the sensitivity of other devices and how far they are from the Jaguar.

    But if a FCC guy (or the equivalent in your country) rings your doorbell, it's probably too much :D

    That would explain the humming it makes and the vibration in my teeth when I come near it.


  5. What was the crash like?

     

    Stantz: Fire and brimstone coming down from the sky! Rivers and seas boiling!

    Spengler: Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes!

    Winston Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave!

    Venkman: Human sacrifice! Dogs and cats, living together! Mass hysteria!

  6. I never dreamed that this document still existed, but I just ran across the original price comparison spreadsheet I made when I was 11 (1981), when I was angling to get the best value possible on buying my VCS. I'd worked all summer in a family business for $1.00/hour to save the money, so it was a big deal to get a good price. I called all the stores and not only got the prices for the "module" and the various controllers, but also made the clerks list everything that came in the boxes. I knew the Sears version was different than what I had seen in some other stores, so I was checking to see if there were any additional options/variations out there. I also inquired about the cost of other game "tapes".

     

     

    Your that kind of kid huh? That is something I would have done. I even remember reading the manuals and game catalogs into my tape recorder so I could archive it for future use. You know, just in case the manual disappeared.
