Not completely...just a little! I like the joystick better than the trak-ball as well!
-
My copy arrived today...really awesome!!! Loved reading this history of the game! I did notice a mistake with the manual....anyone else catch it?
-
Perry-looks awesome and this is perfect timing. Hopefully, Curt is recovering and will get back to the XM's soon!

A big thanks to Al, Keithen Hayenga, and everyone else to worked to make this a reality. 30 years in the making...looks awesome...can't wait to give this a spin on my 5200!

Congrat's...my main system is a 7800, but I picked up a 5200 a few weeks ago and glad that I did. I also picked up the Atarimax SD mulit-cart which makes it easy to play the games ported over from 8-bit systems. My main motivation was to be able to review 5200 games for my blog, but I also find myself enjoying the 5200 as a game system!

5200 4 Port troubleshooting The first port not working.
mmervine replied to atari5200dude82's topic in Atari 5200
I recently bought a 5200 with two controllers. Neither worked, so I ordered a 2nd gen gold one from Best. Plugged it in and my 5200 works like a champ. I say give it a try and buy one controller...you can always resell the controller, if the 5200 is toast. -

Yep, that's the same problem I have...hopefully, some one has an answer...

Got my Atarimax SD cart a few days ago and it is really awesome! I have one question for the forum...has any one had issues with Pole Position? My PP cart works great, but when I play PP from my Atarimax, it does not respond to the joystick. Anyone else have this problem? I have tried a couple different BIN's and they both do the same thing. I don't have this problem with any other games...

Al is having the manuals re-printed. He expects to ship late next week.

In fact, there were over 60 million NES systems sold and only around 1 million 5200's!

Congrats...glad you got it working again!

Glad to see that these other great games are also close to being ready for release!
