    I would like to see a new Atari console, competing with the Playstation, Nintendo, and xbox. The flashback's are great, but something with new games, high definition graphics, bluetooth controllers, internet, a service to download old games, that would be a great system. They could even release it now, while the PS3, Wii, and 360 have been out for almost 2 years. That way it could be better than them and have a head start on the next generation.

    I was in a card/comic book/arcade called Wonder Water, and Hulk Hogan came in(I don't know if he's known outside of the USA, hes a very famous wrestler here). He came in for some cards or something I don't really know. He bought everyone whatever they wanted, and paid for a lot of games for everyone. He spent a few hundred dollars on about 10 kids.

    It's going to be released on December 21, 2012, at 11:11.

    Nope. We'll be dead by then. The real date is October 28, 2011:

    :D

     

    That article may bring up some strong arguments, but some theory's that I keep about December 21st 2012, is that NASA has said that some of the strongest solar flares in so many thousands of years is going to happen, one is that there might be a shift in the magnetic poles, and another is that starting somewhere around December 20th, the sun begins to get lower everyday. At noon on the 19th it might be at one spot in the sky(which it is there every day of the year), but starting on the 20th of December, at that one point in the day, it lowers some. The 22nd it is at it's lowest point of the year(the *sun*<-- the sun is *god*, the *sun* is *son*<-- the *son* of *god* *dies* on December 22nd)and slowly rises, until it is back to normal on the 25th of December(Christmas)<-- the day Jesus *son of god* was born.

     

    On an ironic note, I was born on December 22nd, was supposed to be born on the 25th but was an induced labor :)

    Also, if the world does end on December 21st, 2012, that means that I will die the day before I can legally drink.

    I have 2 NES's, one i've had since it came out, and one that I got from a friend. The one I got from a friend is in better condition and works a lot better. I decided after hours of blowing in cartridges and turning the system on and off repeatedly that I would try to fix the system(the one I got from my friend)

    I found a guide online about fixing the pins on the cartridge connector, so I tried. I could only fix the bottom set of pins. Then I disabled the lockout chip after reading many guides on it. I put the system all back together, but now it doesn't read games. It will read kirby, but only if i leave it in the system for 10 mins or so while the system is turned off. No other game works and I don't know what I did wrong.

     

    Any ideas?

    Break out a genny 3-button pad they're my weapon of choice and seem nearly industructable.

     

    Am I the only one that has the problem with not all the directions working, unless the controller is plugged in exactly tight enough? If its too tight, some don't work, and the same if it's too loose.

    I read in another thread that the 3 numbers on *melted?* in to the bottom of an atari is it's date code. Mine is 461, supposably the first 2 digits are how many weeks in to the year it was made, and the last digit is the year it was made in. If this is true, my 6'er was made around October/November 1981. I thought that the light 6 switchers were only made in 1978-1980
