  1. Also was able to acquire a ColecoVision with Donkey Kong and Smurfs, but it's missing the video cable.

  2. Got a 7800, now i just need some home-brews for it. Also the paddle doesn't seem to work for Circus Atari.

      (Correction: any games, not just home-brews)

  3. Is there such a thing as a Multi-Coaxl adapter that allows multiple inputs with one output?

      you could make one with a selector switch

      get perf board. Wire all the grounds to the output coax port

      and then all the positives to a selector switch and solder it to the board

      I am sadly not a techy person, so I wouldn't be able to make a multi-in adapter from scratch.

  4. The Atari 2600 that I got works perfectly; tested it with Combat. Now to get it into place and buy more games.

  5. I recently got a C64 that my father found; it's missing some cables though.

      Be sure to get C64 saver if you're using original power supply or make your own 5v DC + 9v AC adapter.

      If you're going to order cables, skip the RF cable and go straight for a composite video cable instead. Disk drive cables are straight 6-pin DIN, and not terribly hard to find.

      What kind of monitor you hooking it up to? Need to know that before you buy a cable, there's a few kinds.

  6. Still anticipating a release of Bentley Bear's Crystal Quest on the 7800 someday.

      Ditto. The thing about it being a hobby is you go on the schedule of the hobbyists who do it when they have time and energy to move forward.

      And if it ever does, just put on some music or do it on the go. Pokémon can be tiring if you try to catch and raise every monster.

      If you are going to be anywhere near Brewster you should stop by Curt Vendel's Legacy Engineering.

  18. If Champ Pac-Em or Champ Ms. Pac Em was ported to the 7800, I will rejoice.

  19. To everyone on Atari Age; Most of the statuses you will likely see come from my Twitter, may have to turn it off if things get too extreme.
