    I'm trying to sell my Sega Menacer light gun to my local game store, but my Menacer needs two Scope eyepieces that go on top of my aim assist attachment. If you have any of the scope pieces, please send me a picture and tell me the price. I need two in total, please.

    Hi guys, Well, I’d like to have a Master Everdrive that is not the X7 so no save states or whatever and I also want a regular Famicom N8 Everdrive. I do not want the Pro. Please PM if you have any of those cartridges, but even if you do, I’ll let you know when I want to buy them.

    Hey I’m just wondering for those who have an odyssey2 if you know how to restore paint that is either worn off or gets scrubbed off by mistake like I ended up doing with my odyssey2 console as I tried cleaning dust off of it years ago. Maybe some help please, someone?

    I'm using an Atarimax Ultimate SD Cartridge for my 5200 roms. That and the rom offered to control the resolution of the DVI output are the only ways for my 5200 video display to be tampered with. The cartridge is read great. I don't know if Dig Dug used a different resolution or if the rom is bad. Pac-man displays fine, so does Zaxxon and Berzerk. I'll have to go through the rest of my roms and see if there are any other games that would have video problems.

    I tried some other games and they did have video. I'll have to see if there are any other games with this no video problem.
  6. NAMSS Gamer
    I'm wondering how I can fix the video problem I have when trying to play Dig Dug. No video, but there is full audio and the controls are responsive.
  7. NAMSS Gamer
    I got the video to run and I did manage to change my resolution to around what’s equivalent to a 16:9 resolution regarding the mod for my 5200. I already tested a number of games including pac-man, dig dug and Zaxxon and so far only the dig dug one is a game that couldn’t display video. The rest could. I had to use the numeric keypad to change the settings for my dvi mode resolution but presses always seem to make the scrolling go too fast. But yeah the video on both my Atari systems are now vehemently improved.

    Well guys, I got the Sophia 2 installed on my 5200 and the video works, but for some reason some games like Dig Dug can't get the video display showing even when there is audio and it responds to controller presses. I tried to see if I can change the resolution in DVI mode but no button seems to respond. Can someone help me out, please?

    Ok guys I got my Sophia 2 devices and I’m having some good news already. I decided to start installing my Sophia 2 on my Atari 800XL and after following the instructions correctly and plugged in the DVI to my computer via a DVI to HDMI adapter, I got a really nice picture. I’m very pleased I’m able to get it to work. I’ll have to show you a picture later.

    Yeah I think I can just keep the audio stuff intact and then use DVI simply for video. But if I don’t want to use composite or s-video anymore after the Sophia 2 installation can I just leave the wires alone after getting them off the GTIA chip?
  11. NAMSS Gamer
    We’ll see. I mean I don’t think I should do anything with that other chip where there’s a wire going out of one of the pins for audio along with a resistor there. Nor should I temper with that cable and other stuff that is used for a power supply modification, right? Just remove the GTIA chip and if I want to keep the s-video and composite signal, re-run the wires from the board back to the Sophia 2, right? Would all this be a good plan to get the best video for my 5200?
  12. NAMSS Gamer
    Now the PCB for my Atari 5200. There is both a video mod and a power mod for my console that was previously installed. I’ll have to find out what to do with the GTIA chip on my 5200 console.
  13. NAMSS Gamer
    Ok guys I want to start with the PCB on my Atari 800XL. I feel like inserting the Sophia 2 on my Atari computer will be simple and easy.
  14. NAMSS Gamer
    Ok so here’s where I might have an issue regarding my 5200. It had been previously modified to output composite and s-video and I saw that my GTIA chip on my 5200 has wires soldered to some of the chips to a board that’s inside the console. Should I desolder the wires off my chip if I’m going to replace it with the Sophia 2?
  15. NAMSS Gamer
    Yeah for my 5200, I got the access door replacement and long cable to go with my Sophia 2. Though I have no idea if there was going to be a drill hole to put in audio out. And I don’t know how this Sophia 2 installation will affect my s-video and rca audio mod that was installed by the seller who sold it to me like 4 and a half years ago.
