  1. got my order in \o/ . thanks again
  2. http://www.best-electronics-ca.com/think there is a minimum order of 20 bucks or they might just need cleaning: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/184296-slowcoders-guide-to-cleaning-up-your-2600/
  3. you probably got "driving controllers" as stated above, there was only 1 commercially produced game to work with them. "Indy 500" (sears Race) the knob will be able to spin continually in one direction or the other. paddle controllers have a wye cable as shown above and turn something like 270 degrees, look for "jitter free" ones or clean them yourself
  4. yeah same voltage & power rating ( I have used the Atari adapter on mine as well )
  5. on the VCS port of Steeplechase the paddle adjusts the height thehorse will jump. you can always set to max height but will affect the time. a shorter time will win the race I would love to play the arcade version
  6. perhaps re-flowing solder or cleaning the tuning pot , I also wonder if oxidation on the cable that plugs into the RF box is the culprit nice find I would suspect you'd need to clean the paddle pot for the breakaway games as well
  7. I'd be down for a boxed copy if made available
  8. if you have some jitter free paddles, play Kaboom! you should beable to bring it to the attention of the store owner & perhaps get another Megamania hopefully keeping the Kaboom before he just tosses it in the trash
  9. mine works on the 7800 I have. I hadn't opened 7800 up to see any board revision or anything , it DOESN'T have the expansion port on the side or anything. any post listing the differnt revisions of the 7800 ?
  10. I haven't tried mine in my 7800 I usually play it @ Christmas time in a Vader unit but will give it a spin to see what happens
  11. from an old thread ... http://atariage.com/forums/topic/194389-c-380-video-pinball-button-replacement/?p=3272436 http://www.best-electronics-ca.com/ I don't know what the part # is I think Bradly has a 20.00 minimum order the spring could be scavenged from another battery holder https://www.ebay.com/itm/1x-Battery-Clip-Holder-Case-Box-For-2-x-C-Size-cell-R14-with-6-Wire-Lead/382398015163?hash=item5908b2a6bb:g:F~oAAOSw9NxTsRu~
  12. I was thinking "Waddy" quick shop job but that's ok if shot-down I'd be ok with high score being a spot to wright on the manual

    From the album: Gaming

  14. at the time I thought I snagged the whole thing as is was loaded but I may have just selected the *.mp4 files some reason nothing is uploading of what I have , I have an open port & a firewall exception , I reset "bans" in my torrent client , it did re-seed quite a bit but redownloading the *.torrent file reset all the stats I had on it
  15. the size of the file-set had changed from when I first downloaded it I think adding redundant file types I still got the *.mp4 files and still seeding (loaded the whole *.torrent file to see if I get the whole thing
  16. best to keep it in the cigar box , mine lasted about a week & then the graphic wore off
  17. yeah lake swimming in August is great, the Ocean water is quite cool but in August will be refreshing
  18. few places in Portland Me. to check out if you like: Arcadia National Bar children hours limited Sat 12-4; they have plenty of great pinball to play , some arcade & home consoles to play scattered about ( N64 SNES Wii) Coast City Comics good pinball, couple arcade cabs, retro game sales, collectables, naturally comics Strange Maine record store with some good retro games to buy Bull Moose Music chain of record stores with some retro games not listed on their web site ( N.Windham & Scarborough may be better than others)
  19. fork terminal https://www.homedepot.com/p/Gardner-Bender-22-18-AWG-4-to-6-Stud-Spade-Terminal-Vinyl-Red-15-Pack-15-111/205846629you can remove the red insulation
  20. mebbe try & clean up them connections on the left side of the board (2 whites & red) looks like some work had been done to them looking again the red video wire on the right looks like there is a blob of solder bridging a component on the other side of board ( I am not sure if it's supposed to be that way or not, (perhaps it does) on mine I can see a trace that connects to something
