nice -so you don't need the printer?

i like a good game story, just keep it in the manual.

just got a 2600 lot that included commando

in my innocent naive youth, i thought i would own all starwars games available for the home consoles and pc. in 1990 it seemed an achievable dream. now it would be a nightmare of nightmarish proportions. I decided to change "star wars" to 'Smurfs'. it's better this way.

...or they'll break my thumbs!

totally worth it.

Not to confuse our friend raskard42, you are recommending SIO2PC (USB version), not SIO2USB. Thanks - this looks amazing

i no longer have time or Patience for plot driven games. most of my gaming has to be done in 10-20 minute chucks. get me into the action. and let me save when i have to get back to work.

this is awesome i went to Disneyland for the first time in years and their once great arcade has been depleted to look like a lame chuckecheese ripoff

"where did you get your colecovision?" in my imagined future.

It is a really good clone, despite the color scheme yes - great fun - even with ugly graphics. don't recall - joysticks were analog right?

i owned a trs-80 don't remember if 1 or 2 .. i was just a wee tyke playing polaris..a missle commqand clone. wish i still had it

that ring deal ever work out?

that is my question as well

serious - 60 is a great price compared to all the buy it nows on ebay. also, anyone know where to get a vectrex online? (besides ebay?) somewhere that is to vectrex what best electronics is to atari

This probably was the result of ignorant people curious about the worst atari games

every one stars their collection differently, when i started collecting - i got a red atari catalog (49 games) and decided i would own every game, controller and accessory in the book. also i have duplicates of my favorite games in case of cart failure (as never happened yet, but i live in fear of it every day) some others (fujifruit) already posted some must have games, I'd like to add: Millepede berserk frogger megamania moon patrol

this is awesome - i was looking to ebay an attic full of old junk, but this seems more fun. i may have to do a (totally unrelated and unstolen idea) 'Parcel of stuff' mailing.

you are my hero

sweet. looking forward to a finished product

isn't there a game called spike's adventure of something that has similar gameplay?

i don't think it's based specifically on atari searches. a search for mario brothers will get you to mario for the 2600. it may be because of his 25th anniversary that the interest is so high. otherwise mario bros for atari is a pretty mediocre game.

That's a lot of good information, thank you. based on the responses i got - i am leaning toward the 800xl.

no love for 'name this game' huh?

played fb 2 yesterday still want 3
