Obviously figured out my profile pic, System pics are over 2MB & will not load.

I understand, I'll give it a try Saturday when I'm on-duty for 24hours @ the Fire Station. I'll let you know how after that. Any thing specific you would like me to check?
How do I upload pics to my gallery & my profile?

Atari 5200 with 2600 adapter, both in boxes, with 14 games, 11 of which are in their original box, all 14 with instructions. This whole system was packed away when my tour of duty on my submarine was over & I was transferred from Charleston, S.C. to SUBASE Pearl Harbor, HI. It has not been opened until now to take pics & do an inventory. & the items are in very good condition. I do remember one of the controllers red buttons quit working after playing alot of JOUST, which required constant pressing to keep the wings flapping. Upon unpacking, I found one of the joysticks to be bent. Unit powers on when plugged in, but I have not hooked it up to actually test things. Games all include Instructions & Overlays in very good to excellent shape, some Overlays have not even been removed from their forms!!
The following games are included:
5200: -Pac-Man In Box with Instructions & Overlays
-Centipede In Box with Instructions & Overlays
-Qix In Box with Instructions & Overlays
-Super Breakout In Box with Instructions & Overlays
-Galaxian In Box with Instructions & Overlays box was somewhat flattened, good now.
-Real Sports Football In Box with Instructions, BOTH Playbooks & Overlays
-Joust In Box with Instructions, do not believe this game had Overlays
-Pole Position In Box with Instructions, do not believe this game had Overlays
2600 -Donkey Kong In Box with Instructions
-Reactor In Box with Instructions
-Spiderman In Box with Instructions
-Raiders of the Lost Ark Instructions, but no Box
-Star Raiders Instructions & Overlay, but no Box
-Sky Skipper Instructions, but no Box
2 Red 2600-type Controllers/Joysticks are included with their manuals.
Wish to sell as a package, if no success, will separate later.
$250 for all of the above.

Thanks for the advice, I had been looking for working joysticks, but if someone does repair them i am very interested. I do have Star Raiders ( I had mis-labeled it as Sky Raiders) & will perform the tests as you suggested. I appreciate your being direct, better than beating around the bush & avoids confusion.
The VCS Adapter did not come with the system, I purchased it separately when I came home on leave from the submarine because my younger brothers had a 2600 & we wanted to play their games on the 5200. Receipt for VCS Adapter says November, 1983. System was purchased a little earlier that year.
