  1. Big MST3K fan here. What would be cool if someone made an NES cartridge for this game. They could put on a fake LJN label that harkens back to the Jaws and A Nightmare on Elm Street games.
  2. Someone made a 8-bit game based on the classic Manos: The Hands of Fate movie. It looks very NES. Its available for iOS devices and soon for Android. http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2012/07/22/manos-hands-of-fate-game-coming-to-mobile-devices.aspx
  3. Anyone download "Manos: The Hands of Fate" game for iOS yet? It is coming for Android soon.

      Don't have a smart phone, so hoping for the XBL port talked about.

  4. I think a Vader 2600 would look great in my Star Wars office. I originally had a heavy sixer but now only have a 4 switch in the attic. A very clean Vader would be for display only.
  5. How many copies of E.T. for the 2600 do you own?

      Surprisingly, only two ... one complete and one loose. I agree that it's not nearly as bad a game as its critics claim it is.

      One sealed and one loose cart.

      Only one. But there is a guy on craigslist in my area trying to pedal off a copy like its some sort of rarity.. "Make me on offer on this gem". I want to respond & give him a 5 cent offer, just to see what he says..

  6. What would happen if Mayor McCheese and Big Mac got in a fight?

  7. The Atari Kool Aid (sugar included) without water is yummy but gives me headaches.
  8. Do you eat kool-aid without adding water?

    1. Grig

      Grig

      The real question is: Do you play Kool-Aid Man without an emulator?

      Only if you're wearing a tin-foil hat, then go for it!

      I do not eat kool-aid.

  9. I've emailed the Globetrootter world tour. Hopefully I can take it to Disneyland someday.
  10. What's your favorite flavor of kool-aid?

      Purplesaurus Rex, oh wait, they stopped making that sometime around 1986.

      I actually think I may have a packet of that crap somewhere. That and Sharkleberry Fin (anyone remember that one?)

      Make it with Splenda if you want to cut back on the sugar intake. Works great.

  11. Will Amazon.com kill Walmart?

    1. Austin

      Austin

      Amazon is obviously a contender in the internet realm, but there will always be a need to have various types of goods locally. All of the local Wal-Marts I know of have been converted to Super Wal-Marts as well, which means they are directly competing with the local food marts as well. Ugh.

      Wal-Mart is a monster that we need to shove a pixelated sword into!

      Unless there's Soviet Walmart where they sell only needle, thread, bar of soap and Vodka.

  12. Any chance of a hack of this game called "Carpet Muncher" ?
  13. Back from ComicCon. My son got to meet Tony Stark and a really fat Spiderman!

      Naw, there's a lot of con goers that hate Twilight.

    2. Grig

      Grig

      good - can't stand the Twilight crap.

    3. Bakasama

      Bakasama

      This article is old but it's proof that some con goers don't like Twilight.

  14. Korea gets a theme park dedicated to Toilets and the crap that goes into them. http://kotaku.com/5923416/korea-gets-a-theme-park-dedicated-to-toilets-and-crap-that-goes-in-them/gallery/1

      This is the sort of weirdness you usually expect from Japan.

    2. Bakasama

      Bakasama

      Not really, Koreans are more keen on toilet humor than the Japanese,

    3. frankodragon

      frankodragon

      Speaking of toilets, it's best to visit one and do a #2 before visiting forums such as AA. You'll feel so much better.

  15. I just opened my CounterMeasure cartridge for the 5200 and found an extra chip wired inside. What do you think it does?

      It contains plans to something.

  16. Atari has always had a special place in heart. I started with the VCS and was actively engaged in the Atari vs Intellivision debate on the school yard. I later got a colecovision and loved that as my console. I replaced the Colecovision with a NES, then SNES, then Genesis/Sega Cd/32X and then a TG-16. I got rid of all that and picked up a Playstation then Playstation 2 followed the Xbox 360 as my primary console. On the computer side, I was always pro-Atari. The 400, 130xe, 1040STE. I even took my STe to colleage and would debate against the Mac owner down the hall to which computer was better. Finally, I got tired of backing a losing horse all the time. I picked up a Gateway 486 to replace the STe in college and learned to program it. I've been developing under the PC my entire career. I guess with age, you learn not to be cheerleader for a brand and start to pick out what meets you needs at the present.
  17. Do you have a Doppelganger? If so, is he trying to kill you?

      Nope, I only have an evil twin who does a load of bad stuff all the time.

      I just have a dangling participle.

  18. PM sent. I just want the cartridge.

      When they talk to you, fine. But when they do that anal probe thing, then it's time to lay off those drugs.

  19. Snowman runs amok at beach!

  20. E.T. Phone Home on the A8 is better than the 2600 version.
  21. I think I said this before but I can't remember. I like just one Halo cartridge. Don't need a box.
  22. Customer service and the Tramiels? Don't make me laugh. Jack never heard of those words.
