Found a Heavy Sixer for $30 on Craigslist

[Found a Heavy Sixer for $30 on Craigslist]

Why even bother showing part of the phone number? That gives away what ad you're looking at:

Now hurry someone go make a deal.

 

Technically, blocking out the phone number wouldn't work either since you copied the ad word for word and I could search for that too.

[Sound]

I've tried a few times to add sounds to my game. Nothin doing for me. They never come out how I envision them to sound. They either don't work for me, or just make a quick bleep.

Wow! That screen shot looks great. I love the skid marks.

[Ature - action adventure cart for the Atari 2600]

I have confirmed my friend and I will be at the show on Saturday.

 

Tonight when I get some free time I'll have a picture of all the boxes lined up.

Grr. Screenshot please.

[Too Many Games 11 May 6th - 8th Greater Philadelphia Expo Center 3 days!]

Still not sure what day I'll be attending. It's only an hour away, so I really should just show up both days.

 

I'll try to finalize with my friend tomorrow. I called him tonight and he wasn't home so I left a message.

[Too Many Games 11 May 6th - 8th Greater Philadelphia Expo Center 3 days!]

Yesterday I drove about 45 minutes into Pennsylvania to a Russian supermarket.

 

Anyway, I saw this store called Game Fixx.. he said one of the TooManyGames guys comes in his store sometimes. He shoulda got a table! He's got a lot of stuff in his tiny store. He says he might expand it out back as he has 2 more rooms and a basement. He can hold tournaments.

[Ature - action adventure cart for the Atari 2600]

The game is listed on the TooManyGames website.

 

I'm thinking I might pick up the NES-K1. It's a synthesizer for the NES that uses 4 joypads.

[First Demo]

Lookin good so far!

Screen shot pleace.

Yeah you started talking about some fees like setup or whatever.. I can just do digital printing and be fine.

 

If anyone is interested I'll probably be at NAVA this Saturday showing off Ature.

I will be there!!!!

 

PS: I never heard back from you about the printing quote...

[Ature - action adventure cart for the Atari 2600]

It should be pretty easy to turn it into PAL. I've never done PAL myself, but I think maybe changing the colors might be needed.

I'll gladly do a regular release in the near future. The boxed version is only going to be limited, though.

 

Here's pics as promised:

 

 

I think they came out alright.

[Ature - action adventure cart for the Atari 2600]

Carts are done. I'm doing label art as we speak. After I make/eat dinner I'll go some place and have them printed. Stay tuned for a pic of the "army of carts"..

[Nice article on Pinballz Arcade, with photos!]

Awesome! I specially love the "another 100 games in another warehouse" or whatever it said. Hope to visit you some day.

[gamestop liquidatoin sale....]

I used to work at a Funcoland. Our manager was pretty nice and my friend would come in all the time and help himself to free boxes.

 

Heh, not a related story, but one time I was very sick and could hardly talk. Was during the winter months. The district manager was coming in and I was chosen to demonstrate how to interact with customers! I told him I can't really speak and have to write stuff down on paper my voice was so bad. He didn't care.

[Too Many Games 11 May 6th - 8th Greater Philadelphia Expo Center 3 days!]

Thanks for posting that.

 

Oh, and ppl watching this thread should be aware of this one:

[New Duke Nukem Trailer]

I pre-ordered the Balls of Steel edition.

[Portal 2!]

If you buy Portal 2 for the PS3 you get a free copy for PC. It's $10 more for PS3 version. The thing is you need to use it once and link your account with your Steam PC account. After that you can sell the PS3 version back to GameStop for $24 credit.

 

I just finished co-op mode.. HANDS DOWN THE BEST CO-OP I'VE EVER PLAYED! Took us 5 or 6 hours!

 

Playing co-op is best if you have a friend who's never played it before. If you do random match you can get someone who's done it all or part of it. I lucked out tonight, got someone who never did it before and we went through it all. Sometimes I'd solve a puzzle, sometimes him. Sometimes someone would get part of a puzzle and then someone would figure out the other part.

 

Some of the levels are really fun.. flying around the screen.

 

As for single player I am totally stuck in Chapter 4.

 

If they make a Portal 3 I'd love to see a level designer.

[Anyone have a Harmony cart and wanna test a game for me?]

PM me if you want to test out a game for me on a real system. My system is out on loan to someone.

[Ature - action adventure cart for the Atari 2600]

Keep an eye. I'll update this thread as soon as I hear from my friend to know what date we'll be there.

 

Next year I plan on preparing in advance more often and releasing a few games as well as some of my classic game artwork.

 

If you see me with either the wood cartridge or Ature on the table come say hi. I'm thinking since Dig Dug is being released for NES I might wear my purple Dig Dug shirt, but who knows what I'll wear in the end.
