Probably hundreds of them, as they were a warehouse find in Venezuela where other 2600 items also turned up new-in-box in large quantities
The pipeline seems to be slowing down a bit. Is there a reason why these two games aren’t on the Atari Age Rarity Guide? @high voltage PictureMate a 10 for sure. SongMate maybe a 9.

I found an ad for this thing.
Hand cramps and wrist fatigue causes scoring problems or is it a side effect of not scoring? ?

So I just picked up a SongMate. Do we know how many confirmed copies of SongMate and PictureMate there are?

I've seen threads/websites dedicated to label variations, box variations, ROM variations etc...
Does anyone know if there's a depository of printed ads or commercials for the Atari 2600 or other systems?

Chuckwagon was very expensive in the 90's. It looks like someone decided to make one to play. It could very well be from the 90's ,given the label looks like it is just printed, cut out, and glued on.
How much is something like this worth paying for? Lol

@neotokeo2001 I hear ya, I’m not looking at it as an investment, just trying to not overpay for ones I don’t have as I grow my collection. Been checking out sites like pricecharting.com and gamevaluenow.com and it has helped a lot. They just don’t have any info on homebrews. I’m just getting back into collecting, but I’ve been playing the Roms online. Will support the developer on the games that I like. ?

Thanks @atari181 I get that there are some great games and supporting the community and Atari Age. Just was curious as to how to value them when buying on the secondary market.

Hi guys, I just recently got back to adding more 2600 games to my collection after a 25-year hiatus. For that reason, I’m still learning how to navigate this new auction/ecosystem and looking to get the best deals and such. I also do not own any homebrews so wondering if the prices of these go up and how to tell which have limited runs. Any advice you can provide is greatly appreciated!

Anybody know where this came from? Seller says it’s a repro from the 90s.

Please add me. Thanks.

Wow! How did you get all that for $70? Good find.

Two that come to mind are Frosbite and Tapper. Both great games and not as popular for some reason.

Freeway is as simple as it gets and pretty fun.

My favorite space shooters are Demon Attack and Astroblast.

Besides the fact my games are terribly amateur and not well known this is why I didn't make a Haiku about them. I'm glad Mr. Davie is such a good sport
Haha...got it.
