Pardon? Oh, post further up.

What irks me most about the seller is not the huge flipped profit as much as bragging in his ad that *not even MAME has it* as one of his selling points.

NOS or barely used, 24-29" CRT, NOT flat or line multiplied like Trinitrons, one of the slightly rounded standard ones that works best with light gun games. Do you have one or know where I can get one? MN, WI, IA, ND, SD for pick-up?

I wish I knew where in this five state area of MN, WI, IA ND, SD, there was a warehouse with NOS CRTs 25"-27". And not the True-Flats, which mess with light gun and DDR games around the edges, I want the ones that are a little rounded. You can get plenty of used ones that work well on Craig's List for free, actually they are mostly 32"+ behemouths that no one wants to take to recycling center, but they are 20 years old and how much longer will they go? 25-35 year total lifetime, with about 30 average, I think.

Forgot to add him. Duddie, are these all too big for standard 32K carts, would carts be possible? I don't have a 1050 or tape drive now either.

Did you sell all this stuff or do you still have it? Thanks.

Can all of these disks be played on an NTSC XE w/64K? My LCD Flat Screen has no problem with PAL, but others may want to know how they all work on North American/Japanese TV. For you/others who may have bought tape set: How about the tapes, has anybody played them all on an NTSC A8 machine and/or TV? Also, are these all too big for standard 32K carts, would carts be possible? I don't have a DD or tape drive now either.

Is this one in AtariAge's official emulation menu ROM list or is this somewhere else. Thanks.

My childhood screen was more about 24", but in middle age I kind of regressed back into childhood, starting with an xbox 360 on a 32" LCD, using the kinect to get in shape, then the Wii and the PS2 and PS1, moving to 29" CRTs for DDR and lightgun games, then, inspired by Xbox Live Atari and Activision anthologies, skipping back to Atari and ColecoVision on emulations, begun while searching for the complete, four-level arcade version of Donkey Kong, and then to the 2nd generation consoles, then to the 7800, XEGS and soon, the Nintendo Famicom. Somewhere, deep in my mother's garage attic, I think my childhood Atari 2600 and cartridge collection still sleeps deeply, only to be awakened by a monumental archeological exploration.

May be stating the obvious, but everything seems clearer on my 32" CRT than using emulation on a 15" laptop. I know a lot of people like the lynx and flashback portable, but I can imagine playing on a screen that small unless I was wearing magnifying glasses.

All I can think is maybe the springs in the cart port are stiff and you have to give it a moderate push straight downward to get it the rest of the way in. Or imagic cart board is a little thicker. Also, try putting in a cart that works first, like Asteroids to make sure there is no warm up problem, then try the imagic cart with the moderate but not crazy push down, like I described.

That is odd. I just tried playing Demon Attack and Dragonfire on my Sears Video Arcade II and they both worked fine. Here is a picture if anything was done to mine before I bought it.

No, didn't win it. Compatibility issues with carts as hizzy said and limited to AV. Think I'd rather wait for something better. With actual 2600's and Stella this would probably just take up room. Seems like more of a collector's type item. It did go for less than I thought, though. Figured someone would bid $50 at least, just for the novelty. Something like the Retron 77 that had Stella 5 or later, HDMI, but also AV for light gun games, would be perfect. Edit: There also appears to be no B&W/Color switch, which is used for a lot of homebrews.

Apparently the guy tried to sell it to MAME admin for something like $6000 just so they could get the ROM, and they basically told him (after he bought it for $200 on Craigslist) to go &@#$ himself. http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=367397&page=2&view=expanded&sb=5&o=&vc=1

Yay!

It was from a partially crushed shell with the strip still decent.

Don't these brotherhoods have something to do with looking for prototype carts and distributing the ROM?

I always liked this one that after a few looks, you saw there was a huge space city in the UFOs. And the Defender cover looked like a 70's VHS sci-fi movie cover. And that guy with the beam on his noggin.

You could try the super action controller.

Cost, apparently, according to NSG: http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/2210-coming-this-christmas-atari-flashback-7-and/page-2

Is this the FlashAir III, FlashAir SDHC or an older one. Which ones work with the Ultimate Cart?

Patents can be bought and sold and I think improvements or changes to firmware can be patented or copyrighted, as well. In this case, I guess they were not, as Tom stated. I guess this indicates stelladaptor was creative commons after 2009, from Grand Ideas Studio website: AtariAge was the exclusive manufacturer of the Stelladaptor.

Wow! Famicom has already traveled from Japan to New York! Might get it by Monday if it doesn't spend a week in customs.
