Where did all those conversions come from?Were they offered in cartridge form, and when? I knew about the Homebrews because they were sold here at AA. Inquiring minds need more info.!
-
I hear yeah, I was sniped four times, by .01 cent, on Time Pilot cartridge (not even boxed) a few years back.It can get irritating after a while, but I figure that with enough patience I will eventually get what I wanted, once the 4 or 5 people that also want the same item have theirs. More recently I forgot to bid on the MASH boxed game with t-shirt; it only went for $35.Douh!

The game is so lame, no instructions are necessary...

If I don't get my copy soon Reindeer Rescue will end up being my 2006 x-mas exclusive....

When the sun uses up most of its nuclear fuel/gases and starts to expand towards the Earth, then, and only then, will vidio games be DOOMED!

http://cgi.ebay.com/16-Ultra-Rare-Atari-26...1QQcmdZViewItem So is it worth it, or should the seller have split it up and made more money?

Donald Ducks Speedboat was released by Atari2600.com a while back as a limited reproduction run, and is fun to play.

I don't have to play Vidio Pinball to be a dork, but it helps!

do you have a personal website displaying your atari collection?
dwh replied to patthered's topic in Atari 2600
If you are interested in seeing the Tripod error page, then check out my dead site! But seriously what would be a good host site to display my stuff? -
Do you still have your original collection from childhood?

I thought I threw out my games boxes too, but in the last year my dad found them above his office at our business. -
Time to eBay to require sellers to attend packing school?

I bought mine at the CGE02, but just had to have the signed copy I got off of e(vil)bay for $45.These late release games really do have supurb graphics.Road Runner still blows me away.
-
I'm hurt. The problem with Vidio Pinball is that the "ball" is way to big,so the ball would get stuck in predictable repeating patterns that sucked any pinball fun right out of the game.

How long has it taken you to put your collection together?
dwh replied to orrimarrko's topic in Atari 2600
Got some stuff while in high school(1 year)+started bidding on stuff and buying stuff online in 2000(6 years)=7 years total, and since I mostly collect 2600 stuff, it will be many years more;there is just so much stuff out there. -
A while back I found a seller on ebay that fixed the 5200 controllers, so I had six fixed just for future use(and tantrums).

That's weird that the program would add rows to the second player while you remove multiple rows on your side.Probably just something as simple as a + or - somewhere in the program.You would have to make player one the novice player side, to even out the fun.
-
Ditto! This summer is going to be like x-mass when the package does arrive.

"I think I won my first game because I was excited and focused, which usually makes me smarter and better looking." I thought drinking alcohol made people smarter and better looking?!, not vidio games.
-
There is also the rarity of all those games made by Hozer Vidio.Although a lot of the titles are still made,even by AA, you just do not see these old titles very often on ebay.Then there is all the special edition numbered items, those ought to be pretty rare. How rare would my (paper)boxed copy of Ebivisions release of Allia Quest be?I guess it depends on how many people have the item.We would have to continue, or start to do the rarity polls on the homebrew items.
-
When I get sick of looking at e(vil)bay and I have tucked away some money I end up shopping at Atari2600.com.They accurately describe what you are buying.The only way I am getting the items I am missing for my 2600 collection is through these guys.I will second that they are a bit pricey, but sometimes it ends up being cheaper than some crazy auction on ebay.
-
Chase the Chuckwagon had a box, I believe there was an auction on ebay in the last week. Tooth Protectors just came in a stryrofoam shell. Most homebrew games and hacks,, until recently, were cartridge only or with just a manual.

this is actually quite funny
dwh replied to MetroidsAteMyAtari's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Usually the toilet seat is cleaner than most peoples kitchen counters(info from Mythbusters), so I do not see much of a problem with this set up. -
The real catch is that the prisoner has to first use their low wage prison labor to buy a $300 TV, then they can get the $35 game controller.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4818128.stm Oregon state prison system has incentives, one being the purchase of the $35 classic game system to play while in prison.

My top two games are Jr Pac-Man and Millipeed.
