im sure some of the homebrew guys out here have a label template for 5200 games? anyone care to share one?

Any chance of a NEO-GEO AES dust cover?

i want an Atari PONG flashback, it would have every version of PONG from all the dedicated Atari Pong systems. that would be awesome, and it would have four paddle controllers.

Those are VERY rare. You could make a few hundred bucks if you decided to flip it, easily.

any way to know how early/late your unit is by its serial number? mine is 80088A made in Los Gatos, CA.

man, i'd love to compete but i'm so bad at this game lol.

you can also mention good games that only came out on 2600 and never on 7800, post 7800 launch.

Name as many as you can.

its not the worst game ever, but still a very bad game IMO

Thought i'd revive this thread... I love 2600 and 7800 sound effects, while the TIA isn't very well suited to music, its the KING of great sound effects. heres some of my favorites. The shooting sound in Defender 2600 The shooting sound in Centipede 7800 When you beat a level in Yars Revenge 2600 When you die in food fight 7800 walking in Donkey Kong Jr. 7800 When you die in Space Invaders 2600 Everything in super breakout 2600!

so, which is better, this or commando?

7800 for life! Just scored a copy of commando, btw!

exactly what the title says. Discuss.

These look great. I'll be picking up the 7800 and Saturn ones eventually. Now if only she had Neo Geo AES ones...

Video Olympics is underrated. nothing beats a good game of PONG. or FOOSPONG

The larger chip says 74LS 123 494 and the smaller chip says MB428LM and 386N-3

Does anyone know what this is?

and dont forget it has to be in a hand-made wooden case.

how is artifacting done, anyway? and do 2600 and 7800 games use it?

you could build an arcade style joystick using one of these: http://na.suzohapp.com/all_catalogs/joysticks&R=16&S=TS&FILTER_NAME=JOYSTICK_CONTROL&FILTER_VALUE=Analog&FILTER_UOM= plus add a telephone keypad: http://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Professional-metal-telephone-keypad_808579361.html and seimitsu buttons: http://www.focusattack.com/buttons/seimitsu/ and an LS-40 for games that work better with digital controls: http://www.focusattack.com/seimitsu-ls-40-joystick-187-fastener-type-with-re-plate/

nice! the arcade sprites are actually very different looking compared to the NES and standard 7800 ones.

Maybe an adaptor to use a Sega Saturn analogue controller on a 5200? Or maybe a PS2 controller. (try to avoid modding saturn controllers, they are sacred!)
