  1. Back after an injury, a bad cold, an two long business trips...just blogged about Millipede... http://retrogameguy.com/2013/04/14/millipede/

  2. Curt-glad to have you back and feeling better!
  3. Looking good...can't wait to play this!
  4. The H2 can't be done soon enough...I really need to set up an emulator environment. Bob, can't wait to play this when you make some carts!
  5. I would be interested in a set of overlays as well!
  6. Bob-looks awesome...call it Armor Attack 7800!
  7. Glad to hear that Tempest is selling well!
  8. PM him and I am sure he will get back to you quickly...
  9. I can highly recommend the Best paddles with 'super pots' for anyone looking for paddles for your 2600: http://www.best-electronics-ca.com/cx30_paddle.htm
  10. The lag on the FB4 is due to the analog to digital conversion. Once you get used to it, the games play ok. Just a different feel from a real 2600.
  11. Wow! Can't wait to play this when it is ready!
  12. Bob-hope you have some luck with this...eagerly awaiting the opportunity to play BB on my 7800!

      @SB - we're only 3 hours away! You should make a weekend out of it! Plenty of motels to stay at. Mine's 3-4 times a year with the timeshares our family has.

  15. You could check and see if Yurkie will do a 5200 AV mod as he does Colecovision and 7800's. Otherwise, contact this seller on ebay: http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5574883395&toolid=10001&campid=5336500554&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F151006109912%3FssPageName%3DSTRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT%26_trksid%3Dp3984.m1438.l2649 For controllers, try Best Electronics: http://www.best-electronics-ca.com/5200.htm
  16. Just stumbled across this thread...really amazing work...very impressive!
  17. Really awesome review!!! Anyone on the fence about ordering Tempest should watch your video. I also put together some great written info here: http://retrogameguy.com/2013/03/02/tempest/ Again, a big thanks for everyone that had a hand in making this a reality after 30 years!
