      does it have the Hulk, corn, Knight Rider or Hello Kitty in it?

  2. Made a big mistake by posting here after staying up till 1:30 AM. Pissed another member off and now I feel really bad about it. Trying to fix it now.

      I know how to fix this. Sell it to me low and I will take all the hate for selling it high :)

      AtariAge is like Gremlins. Don't feed it after 1:30AM.

  3. Thinking about getting a PSP. I've read different opinions on PSP 2000 vs PSP 3000. Any of you guys have preference (especially on what the screen is like)?

      Thanks guys! I unfortunately have to buy online as the only game store near me is GameStop who overcharge and don't stock PSPs anyway. I don't want a PSP GO because I love physical copies and have no modification expertise.

      In that case, choose carefully and make sure it's shipped in a padded box.

      I LOVE my PSP 3000! So much retro gaming goodness packed into one little system. Makes me want to go play it right now.

  4. Anyone's NCAA bracket busted yet? A friend of mine had Baylor in the Final Four.

      Just looked it up and it's actually in the trillions or more. You have a much better chance of winning the lottery.

      No one has ever had a perfect bracket

      I originally picked Yale but then changed my mind and picked Baylor !!

  5. Anyone else think that Seaquest (Activison) is a super underrated 2600 game?

      Totally a game I'd nearly forgotten about! I think my friend had this then I borrowed it (I had Bermuda Triangle myself)....But that's a guess because I recognize it so well...That box even looks familiar, so I don't think it's a memory from Flashbacks or Anthologies on PS2 etc... yet I don't see it in my collection...

    3. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      At least I do have it on a Multicart...I've got one of those multis with dipswitches where setting the switches determines which game will play...

    4. Nutsy Doodleheimer

      I consider Private Eye the most underrated Activision title. Seaquest is a fun game. I enjoy challenging the patch scores.

  6. Does anyone know if the Missile Command Trackball hack will work with a wico trackball?

      Thanks guys! I was considering buying a wico 'ball instead of an Atari one, but that's certainly not happening now.

    4. Skippy B. Coyote

      Skippy B. Coyote

      It's a darn shame that the Wico trackball doesn't have an analog mode like the Atari one and just emulates a joystick, since the build quality and feel of the Wico is enormously better.

  7. Got a friend to help me with my broken PVM today and we were able to fix it! Can't wait to play some games on it!

      Lemmee get this straight, you had a broken Presbyterian Villages of Michigan? Now how in the world do those break? LOL

      KreatorKat

      @Save2600 yup, the fix itself wasn't difficult, just bypassed the switch, but getting to it through the wires was tough.

      Also replaced a light panel in the marquee of my arcade cab. A productive day!

      Where can we choose our brackets if we want to play?

  9. Now here's something I never thought I would see: a youtube commercial for Ford featuring Psycho Mantis from Metal Gear Solid for the original Playstation. Just how did they dream that one up?

  10. Finally got 4 million in Bust-A-Move (Neo Geo MVS) again. I had done it before but I didn't realize my high scores would disappear and I didn't take a picture. Didn't make the same mistake this time!

      Well I really don't know because it held the high scores for a while and one day they just disappeared.

      check the game setup menu, you should see the last half dozen carts the system booted in there. If not, battery is probably dead. A shame there isn't memory for more games. Oh and I've noticed those mvs multicarts blank the memory too--at least the 100-in-1 I have does.

      I used to always drink beer and Play Bust A Move on a Neo Geo cab at this bar and grill that is no longer here....Never that good though!

  11. NFL teams passing on Larmey Tunsil will be a huge mistake...

    1. KreatorKat

      Also, Giants with Eli Apple over Vernon Hargraves? I think they did it just for the Eli Manning-Eli Apple-Big Apple (NYC) puns.

      "Larmey Tunsil"? Sounds like a bad throat inflammation.

      Now I hope the Dolphins totally kick ass with him!

  12. On eBay, it seems as though every PVM that offers local pickup only also happens to be in California. Seriously, there's like 5 high quality 20 inch PVMs located in California and maybe one anywhere else in the states. Makes me wish I lived close enough to pick one up.

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Always the way huh? Whenever I used to be interested in an Arcade game, it would always be pick up only and be on the East Coast for some reason...

      More ebay sellers should offer free local pickup (just have to check a box in the listing form). I always offer free local pickup on all my auctions even small stuff. I will meet them at the Starbucks 2 miles from the house.

      Congrats on being a Chopper Commander! About 700 more til I hit Quadrunner! @Atarian7. X'D That is the funniest status update in Atariage history! I'll never forget first seeing it posted.

      Sweet job! And lol @Atarian7, that's one of my favorite status updates that I've seen.

  15. Plugged in a friend's Master System today using my Genesis 1 RGB cable with 3.5mm breakout for stereo. Since the Master System has no headphone port, there was no audio but I had the idea to plug the breakout jack into my phone. Pretty neat to play whatever song we wanted over the game.

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      That is pretty cool.

      Nice thats something worth trying,

      Both the Master System and Mega Drive first revisions have the same AV connector, so one might get mono audio through that connector. The Mega Drive 2 has a new AV connector providing stereo, but lacks a headphone jack.

  16. Congratulations to Clemson for defeating Alabama in the CFP championship game. Instant classic.

  17. After a few weeks of no finds at my local flea market, today I finally broke through with Okami (ps2) and a gold Zelda (NES) cartridge. Can't wait to play Okami!

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      My 1st thought was I have that game! Haven't played it yet...So I looked, and I have OKAGE (Not Okami)...I blame the codeine ...

    2. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Congrats BTW!

  18. I finally got to test my Missile Command TB for the 2600 I ordered from the AtariAge store, but it isn't working at all with my cx80 trackball. I guess this means I need the cx22 version.

    1. jaybird3rd

      jaybird3rd

      Is your CX80 in Joystick Mode or in Trackball Mode? (There's a switch on the back.)

      Thank God. Now ESPN can talk about something else. Anything else would be appreciated by the REST of the country.

    2. KreatorKat

      KreatorKat

      I see what you mean. They never did stop talking about him. The irony is all of the talking about how he could get better probably made his mental state worse.

  20. ESPN homepage calls the Cleveland Cavaliers the "Chameleon Cavs." I guess the championship that LeBron promised Cleveland is being "delayed to make it even better!"

      Last year 2 of their superstars were inured. No team can win it all with only 1 great player.

  21. The Intellivision RGB mod board is for sale and in stock on RetroRGB.com for anyone interested; I've heard that they sell out pretty quick

  22. #TeamLitten! If Pokemon Sun/Moon's cities really look like the ones in the official trailer, then I will be a huge fan of the new region.

      It's Hawaii. They don't even try to disguise it.

    2. KreatorKat

      KreatorKat

      Yep, I totally see what you mean. It's not like they tried to hide France or NYC either ;). But I think the expansive cities and cool looking designs in the trailer are intriguing.

  23. If you haven't seen the UCONN shot from earlier today- basketball fan or not- look it up. Triple overtime insane buzzer beater.

  24. A thread I have many posts in isn't appearing at the top of "my content" when new posts appear. Odd...

    1. KreatorKat

      KreatorKat

      And a few posts later it's back to normal.

  25. I'm looking for a Neo Geo arcade cabinet. A bunch of possible candidates I looked at ended in disappointment, so I'm hoping someone will have one available soon! If you've got one, PM me!

    1. Papa

      Papa

      You might have better luck hunting down a Dynamo cabinet and installing the Neo-Geo board into that. I will likely do that with my HS-5 one of these days.
