Yeah, the guy looks like a deadly pufferfish...

I had the Pheonix poster,but it was in the box that I threw out years ago.If posters were offered in AA store(even if it were for the new homebrews due to copyright crap),I know I'd buy 'em.
-
Driving Controller games of course! Rob Mitchell, Atlanta, GA I agree,this is definatly an area the homebrewers can fill in,and us non-programmers can pay dearly for
-
Yet another item I'll have to pay $100+ for on ebay ,since I will not be attending the show.With no more prototypes to rehash,who knows maybe Bob Polaro will make something from scratch,for nostalgia's sake...Now that would be cool.
-
I'll start looking for spare change around the house....At least these days the games are made available after the classic game shows. Will the games sold at phillyclassic have a special label saying so(thus making it more of a collectors item for the people that do attend the show)???

I've got an old Agfa digital camera,but it does have the option to turn off the flash.So I turn off the flash and get the object under the overhead light in the room without my shadow getting everything dark again;then I lighten it up on the computer if needed.This seems to cut down on that horrible glare.

I belonged to the Atari Age Club and only got Gravitar and Crazy Climber;should have gotten the rest,but as a kid $50 or $60 bucks was a lot...Also knew a family friend that worked at Atari and got me some stuff at their store;should have gotten more...Did not even know there were blow out sales of 2600 stuff near the end,was too busy being a stupid 20 something year old....writing of being stupid;threw away the box that had all my atariage magazines and all the atari boxes(mostly silver label),because I was moving one time.

Custom double-ender now has a place to stay ! (BIG IMAGES)
dwh replied to CPUWIZ's topic in Atari 2600
I would "retire" a Xonox game for this combo anytime--Spikes Peak/Ghost Manor is like Combat for Xonox and is on ebay all the time...so,yeah, sign me on too.Just as reference, I paid $110 for Texas Chainsaw with instructions off of E(vil)bay. -
let's go one step further and have AA make a cart too...or is this wishful thinking?

How "forgiving" are you on homebrews/proto release
dwh replied to Cassidy Nolen's topic in Atari 2600
I still haven't received mine yet DITTO! -
This is a neat idea,since lunar lander on starship is so bland and the concept is so hard in gravitar.Someone program this for us 'mediocre' gameplayers,Please!Maybe with three levels of difficulty--childrens/regular(mediocre)/&'you WILL crash'.I would buy that game.
-
Hey, that's a cool site--a quick way to see the screenshots. Just played/looked at "walker" yesterday on my multi-cart;it's lame,because,um,you just walk around and jump over 'policemen?'.Now,"parachute" is a better unknown game.
-
I have Bumper Bash--loose,looks real rough too;the only rarity 9 one I got.
-
The supply and demand formula can be a real pain for the 2600 carts.It seems like in the last year in a half that more product has made its way into the market(auctions/ebay),but the thrifting scene is drying up a bit.Games that I paid $16-18 for a year ago are now going for $4-6 on ebay--there's just more of 'em out there now.But on the other hand,the rarity 6-8 games that I picked up are not out there as much,and are a lot more expensive.
-
I've got all three of these "Paks",but the racing pak is missing the boxes.Almost bought all the white boxed games at CGE02,now I know why I should have....only seen these items on ebay three or four times,good luck hunting for 'em.
-
so what are you missing for to complete comapny x's games?
dwh replied to Godzilla's topic in Atari 2600
Just missed getting Quberts Qubes last week on e(vil)bay;I bid up to $85,but it went way beyond that. --only missing three Activision boxed games --also missed getting Guardian two weeks ago&can't afford Lockjaw... --Still trying to get a copy of Out of Control. --can't seem to get my hands on Halloween either. Problem is that the carts I am missing now are all the ones that are $100+,so about every two months I agressively try to bid on one..no luck lately. -
What is the best gaming related thing in you're collection?
dwh replied to Happy_Dude's topic in Atari 2600
I also have all the Atari Force comics 1-20.Also got a copy of the only handheld game atari ever sold--the 'touch me' simon ripoff. -
It gets worse--I recently gave someone a spare 2600 and extra games.You think you are attached to your collection-try parting with some of it.It was funny,I went thru my extra games box and at one point said,"I can't give you these carts here, because they are worth something to trade with."But all is good because this guy works at a flea market and has a list of games I'm looking for,and maybe someday he will find something...
-
Just looked at the store a few minutes ago and saw four current items to purchase;then I see SIX more titles here....Also just spent $120 on ebay last week--(reaches into pocket)"can I pay with lint?" Everything looks top-notch as usual.Just to let ya all know, Oystron is a cool game-a very different arcade style game.
-
I was impressed with Pheonix when it came out.Allia Quest is a new one that's good.
-
One word-- GREED. I can only hope that my new copy of Pac-Man Arcade was made from an old copy of Pac-Man.

MAJOR TV ALERT: TRON ON TMC 8:00PM EST (RIGHT NOW)!!
dwh replied to MrRetroGamer's topic in Atari 2600
Was just watching the DVD disk 2 of the Tron 20th aniv edition this afternoon..some cool info in there about how many layers it took to get the final composite images. -
I also have a bunch of Apple II stuff.Checked Ebay a while back and saw that it is not worth much.It is only worth the memories...The whole setup cost as much as a car back in the day...
-
Ironically, I live too far in the "wilds" to find anything in the "wild".So ebay and other online purchasing is all I got.
-
Just like Miner 2049er & Miner II,these game ideas that have multiple levels can be broke up onto two or three carts.With that been said,I'd like to see something like Loadrunner.
