    Was the site down for awhile? I couldn't get on the first 5 or 6 tries.

      Not that I'm aware of. I start getting emails when a monitoring service cannot reach the site.

      I've been losing my Internet connection randomly today. I have to unscrew the cable and screw it back in to reconnect.

    You already have all the ones I would recommend.

    It has been awhile since I looked for Atari stuff on eBay. People are asking a fortune now.

      ^ O'Shea scrapping all those carts is still heartbreaking.

      Remember when you could buy a tested Commodore 64 on eBay for under $100

      Even that's expensive.. $100 for useless 1980's tech.. You get the idea.

    SOLD already. How do I change the title to show it has sold?
  6. Atarian7
    All I want for it is $10 plus shipping. I can't fix this sort of thing so I figure I will sell it to someone who can repair it. It is in good cosmetic condition. I can still play games on it but it flashes off then back on every once in awhile. Sometimes when I try turning a game on it comes on, then turns black, then comes back on if I wiggle the switch a little. So I'm pretty sure it is the on/off switch.

      ^ About two weeks before we get slapped with winter weather, if your area is anything like mine.

      My favorite time of year. I wish we could have 12 straight months of October.

      When I lived in NYC, I loved fall. It was exceptionally nice weather, sandwiched between the brutal summer and vicious winter. Now I live in NC, and winters are beautiful and fantastically mild, with very little snow, and manageable temperatures. Plus, it's Christmas Season, so that's what I look forward to.

    Something happened to my Kaboom! game again. The screen flashed and it went back to the game select screen. My score disappeared, there was a 1 up top , the Mad Bomber was smiling, and there were no buckets.

      Maybe cleaning the cart's pins will fix the problem?

      Maybe that copy of Kaboom is haunted by ghost causing strange things to happen in this game.

  9. Atarian7

    I was playing Kaboom! and the screen just blacked out. I have already cleaned it 4 or 5 times. Also when I put the cart in I tap the top, front and back, and also wiggle the cart. It stayed on doing all of that.

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Is that the only cart having problems?

    2. jaybird3rd

      jaybird3rd

      ^ True, you should test it with other carts, too. It could be that this one cart is failing.

    3. Atarian7

      LOL Eltigro

       

      Other carts work fine. However, sometimes I have to turn the switch off then back on to get some of them to work.

    Looks like Florence is now spinning on the SC coast. It's odd that it went south.

    I had my first Atari dream last night. I was trying to take a cartridge out of the bin and pulled out a silver label Gravitar. I don't even have one and I don't care about label variations anymore.

      Congratulations, you finally graduated from Dream College.

    I'm tired of cutting the grass. Soon, there will be leaves to clean up as well.

      If you're tired of cutting your grass, you can always come over and cut mine for a change of pace. :)

      You need to get some Emo Grass. It cuts itself.

    I'm surprised you didn't get Keystone Kapers. That was the first game I ever maxed out. One time I decided to play it to see if it got any faster after a certain point. It didn't and I ended up going to 1 million.

    Kaboom! ? I second that! and I like Grand Prix. (Kaboom! qualifies if you are counting the last 3 seasons. If you are counting years then it doesn't.) I would also like Spacemaster X-7.
  20. Atarian7

    I was playing Kaboom! and the cartridge went out on me. Glad I was only around 50,000. If it had happened with a really high score I would have been pissed.

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      You should try blowing on it...Then afterwards maybe play some Atari HeyO!

      Thanks for the extra advice jay.

       

      When I cleaned it the qtip got some black on it so it definitely needed a cleaning.

       

      Hey wongo, I switched Kaboom! cartridges about a year ago. LOL

      I didn't think you'd need to clean the contacts if it never was out of the console. =)

    The newspaper is already wrong. It says rain in the p.m. but it is raining in the a.m. right now.

    In my highest game of bowling I got one spare and the rest strikes. What's amazing though is that I got a split on that spare. I forget which pins. ___________________________________ Keep trying agb.
