    I want to own everything! LOL Sometimes you do get lucky and score a rare game without knowing it until you get home. I recently purchased a huge lot of gaming systems and happened to get a bumper bash in the lot. I just had won a bumper bash in a lot on ebay so talk about luck! I have my 2nd bumper up on ebay now because I don't like to sit on doubles as they take up to much room after a while. I did keep the better of the two. The one I kept has no hole in the center. To give you an idea what I got in that huge lot:

    An atari 2600 system with about 20 games or so in the box with manuals 4 nes systems with about 75 games that I do not collect

    A commodore 64 with tons of software

    and Atari 800 - 810 - and 1050 with games

    and about 15 sega games

    all this for $150.00!

    I just sold one of the Atari 800 games for $52.00 and the bumper Bash is at $61.00 on ebay now---so I thinks I did ok in this score :-)

    if your interested in the bumper bash just type it in to ebay search. it still has a couple hours left.

    I plan on having evrything Atari sold if it takes me years and years, I will have it all!!! hehe

    Is there anyone out there that has absolutely everything there was ever made for the 2600?? Is this even possible? We could certainly dive into the realm of "No" if we add the homebrews in, But I am talking everything released by Atari and Licensed by them. Just so you know---I have a feeling I am not even close to this LOL.

    No that was a cross force game. I got all that stuff by calling a local radio station that has a phone fleamarket every Sunday morning. I asked for any atari 2600 stuff---this guy called and when I got there he had all the stuff out. I kept very calm and just said...."Nice, very nice, I'll give you $100.00 for everything" to which he replied... "Really????" he was happy, I was happy. I just got a keeper of a bumper bash in another ebay Auction which is in nicer condition than the one I have up---but that stays with me :-)

    Yes they do---but I have received things from Canada before that had made the screen roll---which is common for Pal to do here. I do not know if they were games original to Canada or not. For all I know they could be from Budapest. It was just a question because I am not an expert on the pal NTSC thing. For me if I put something in my system and it works, I could care less if it were Pal or NTSC.

    I think maybe because it does not play well on our televisions---would you want to spend $799.00 as the lochjaw just went for on ebay just to have it make your screen roll?? The cart works fine on my tv. the system I got from Canada has some issues and distorted the games played on it. I tried it on another system and it was fine. Anyway this is what the cart looks like. I do not see that there is a Pal version.

    The picture is a poor one because with the exception of the hole in the middle of the cart it looks great. DANG FOIL!! :roll:

    I am wondering why if there are two rare games of Motorodeo on ebay right now, how come no one has bid on them? I become suspect when it is a rare game---many visitors to the game and no bids? I have bought the wrong games before and do not want to make the same mistake again. these are pal games but even Atari Age lists them as an 8. Just wondering.

    Regards,

    JOHN :?

    the games are here:

    Hey Eckhard,

    Thanks for the information. It is odd because I did play some of the games and thought they worked fine. Then I noticed something. If all I have to do is run around a maze as in Lock N Chase I am fine. If I try something like coconuts ---the coconuts go ballistic on me and go everywhere. Then I tried missile command. This game I knew from when I logged in thousands of hours as a kid. I was dumb founded. The little cursor that you use to shoot things with decided it did not want to stay in one place. It to runs across the screen continuously in a straight line. I am thinking that this is a system problem and not a game problem. I just got the system so it is new to me. Thanks for your help. 8)

    :P ok I looked at the screen shot here on atari age and then ne----it looks as if the rights side bumper (blue) is having a nummy spell. that line roles across the screen repeatedly over and over very quickly. Could it be the system I am using? which is a cx-2600A made in Tiwan.

    can anyone tell me what the problem here is---I have played other games with this system and they work fine. Bumper Bash seems to have lines running through it. I was able to capture an example in the pic below. The line starts at the top of the A and runs down through the center bumpers. also when I play the game the ball gets stuck or goes off the screen completely. am I doing something wrong---is there anyway to fix it? Thanks for your help. NEWBIE HERE BUT NOT TO ATARI COLLECTING
