  1. Space Invaders, Combat, and Missile Command. I'm sure they've all been mentioned but they're all must own titles. Dirt Cheap too.
  2. Mega Man, Legend of Zelda, and Castlevania series usually alternate with me. I go on binges where I'll go for weeks playing nothing but Zelda or Mega Man. Good times.
  3. woooo I rolled the score in Asteroids today.

  5. I kinda feel like a cheater using a Genesis pad with my 2600. My scores in Cosmic Ark jumped drastically after the switch.

      I never use one with my 2600, it has a higher voltage rating than the stock joystick. That means it can damage the system. I nearly fried the CIA chip on my Commodore 64 by using it for Moon Patrol. I prefer the Wico Command Control, they're the best.

      I had no idea it could cause damage, thats no good. I'll have to check out that Wico Controller, everyone here seems to love it.

  6. I was surprised to see that the servers are still up, I used to upload levels like crazy. Maverick Hunter X is amazing, If you're a fan of the original SNES release it's a must play.
  7. I'm not too bothered about load times, I can deal with those. The hardware itself is my main problem. I bought my first 360 in April of 2009 and it was dead by Jan of 2010. We played the crap out of it, sure; but we didn't play it any moreso than any other console that came before it. Those all still work, why cant the Xbox? I bought a new one but I shouldn't have to do that! I don't even know why I did, it's not like I play it anymore.
  8. Hi, I'm new to AtariAge, I just bought my first Atari 2600. It's a light sixer and I absolutely love it.

      Cool. I got an Atari 2600 4 Switch woodgrain a month ago around the time I joined.

      Welcome to AA! You'll love it here! :)

  9. I apologize for necroposting, but I figure this is better than starting a brand new thread. I just got my first Atari 2600; a light sixer. I've been using the Space Invaders "hold reset while powering on" trick. Judging by what I've read in this thread I can see that it isn't considered frying. I'm still a bit worried that it will cause damage to my console though. Am I simply being paranoid here or will using that trick actually cause damage?
