Made a road trip yesterday...

Good grief. What did Woz do to deserve this?

Thanks again for the deal!

Oh, I figured as much. I just thought it would be beneficial for newer members to know as well.

Don't protect the guilty. I'd much rather see people like this called out by name. With as many new members as your SD card has brought in, I think it'd be helpful to point out the more toxic people in the scene.

Great work! I'm really looking forward to this one.

Asterisks are alright, but I've long been a fan of the "asshole quotes," myself.

Welcome aboard. Someone get this man a taco! 🌮

I hate when Mom and Dad fight. ☹️

No, Fred, Wozniak was never an Atari employee. Sweet baby Jesus.

"Original creaters of breakout in the 80,s" There's just so much to break down in this one simple sentence fragment that I don't even know where to begin.

Did I miss something, or did the Atari men in black sterilize the "official" subreddit?

At no point did anything about this project ever look awesome or promising.

It doesn't have a meaningless Atari logo anywhere in it, so probably not much.

How does the Atari Gamebox LLC entity factor into that? I've always assumed it was a patsy to shield the parent company when things inevitably went pear-shaped.

After the stock bloodbath today, an emergency press release was in order. https://www.bloomberg.com/press-releases/2019-10-08/atari-october-8th-2019-brief-statement

Atari demonstrably bans people they find inconvenient. No more, no less. It's not for personal attacks, hate speech, the "trolling" catch-all, or any of their other silly excuses. The Parker siblings, the Werners, Lucas...these are simply useful idiots for the cause. Foot soldiers. Enforcers. Atari won't disavow these morons because they'll gladly do Atari's dirty work.

Atari would rather infamously use whatever parts were laying around, so there will be variation with internals and whatnot. What makes a heavy a heavy though is that think, rounded base. You could throw them on a scale, but there really shouldn't be much difference between any 6-switch unit with the thinner, angular base.

That's... not a heavy. I'm guessing there must have been manufacturing variances. I only had a heavy sixer for 25 years and never had any problems with cartridge snugness.

I mean, if the box isn't in great shape it's damaged, no?

It'd probably help to throw out a ballpark price, too. Especially with a brand new account.

The irony of Atari's ban policy: the biggest offenders of the "hate speech, abuse, and personal attacks" excuse are usually Atari's biggest cheerleaders.

Whoops...wrong forum. Love the discs! 🙂

Time to dig out a couple CX-10s.
